Dalpol Yacht owners group

I was contacted recently regarding the Phobos yacht and as I do personally know some other owners, I thought that it would be a great idea to create the Facebook group called "Dalpol Yacht Owners".

I think we should connect all together and share the ideas, sail trips or even sell your boat.

If you are the Phobos owner or just love these boats, you are more than welcome to join!

Phobos Days 2015

We had a great opportunity to visit a nice event held by the Phobos Yacht's official dealer here in the Czech Republic. He brought together the whole line of the Phobos yachts starting with Jumper 19, Phobos 21, Phobos 24, Phobos 25 and also a hot new prototype of the Phobos 24.5, which is supposed to be a replacement for the old Phobos 24 to complement the new design line.

The best thing was that it was held on the lake Slapy so all the boats were available for testing sails.

For me, it's good to see the other boats so I can get some inspiration and chat with other owners of the Phobos sailboats.

The conclusion from the council of the expert sailors is that Phobos 21 is exceptionally fast boat :-)
Coming soon for the next season: Jirka a friend of mine, decided to buy a gennaker for his Phobos 21 !!!

Boat Expo 2014 in Prague

The winter and spring is time of several boat shows across the Europe and this weekend it was held in our country in Prague. It's called Boat Expo 2014 and it's not that big due to the small market, but this time there were two sailboats from Dalpol - Phobos 21 and Phobos 25 in the"Exclusive" edition.
We wanted to see, how the Dalpol evolve in time and also to get some inspiration of the new features.
Thanks to our boat dealer Mr. Linhart, we were able to visit the boat show for free and have a nice chat.
There was also plenty of power boats and one other sailboat Mariner 24.

I was curious about the cabin floor and this boat has a completely flat floor with teak and holly plywood floor. It looks like the Dalpol fixed the issue on the convex floor that I have.

I'm not sure this will comply with the marine standards!
