About the Deltania 22

Built by German manufacturer Deltania Yachts beginning in 2020, this 21.75-foot fractional sloop represents a modern approach to compact coastal cruising. The fiberglass construction combines seaworthiness with practicality, featuring a swing keel design that offers significant advantages for trailer sailing and shallow-water exploration. With its generous 8.23-foot beam and moderate displacement of just under 3,000 pounds, the Deltania 22 strikes a balance between stability and performance. The swing keel configuration provides a draft range that makes it equally at home in shallow bays or deeper coastal waters, while the outboard rudder arrangement ensures responsive handling and easier maintenance access. The boat's sail area of 204.51 square feet delivers respectable performance for coastal day sailing and weekend cruising, though the capsize screening formula of 2.29 suggests this is primarily a protected waters vessel rather than an offshore passage maker. The SA/Displacement ratio of 15.86 indicates moderate performance characteristics suited to recreational sailing rather than racing applications. As a relatively new design from a German builder, the Deltania 22 appears positioned to serve the growing European trailer-sailer market, appealing to sailors seeking a manageable boat that can be easily transported between sailing grounds while offering comfortable accommodations for short cruises.

Performance Ratios
SA/Displacement Sail Area to Displacement ratio measures how much sail power a boat has relative to its weight. Higher values mean more performance and speed.
Under 14 — Heavy cruiser, slow14–18 — Cruising sailboat18–22 — Cruiser/racerOver 22 — Performance racer
15.86
Displacement/Length Displacement to Length ratio measures how heavy a boat is relative to its waterline length. Lower values mean a lighter, faster boat.
Under 100 — Ultralight racer100–200 — Light cruiser/racer200–300 — Moderate cruiser300–400 — Heavy cruiserOver 400 — Very heavy
210.27
Comfort Ratio Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio predicts how comfortable a boat will feel in offshore conditions. Higher values mean a steadier, more comfortable motion in a seaway.
Under 20 — Uncomfortably rough20–30 — Acceptable coastal30–40 — Good offshore comfortOver 40 — Very comfortable offshore
14.17
Hull Speed Hull Speed is the theoretical maximum speed of a displacement hull, calculated from waterline length. Most cruising sailboats reach this speed in moderate conditions. 5.76 kn
Pounds/Inch Immersion Pounds per Inch Immersion (PPI) tells you how much weight is needed to sink the boat one inch. Useful for calculating how additional gear and stores affect waterline. 3.26 pounds/inch
