About the Deltania 22 2

Designed by Andre Skrzat and built by German manufacturer Deltania Yachts starting in 2006, this compact 23-footer represents thoughtful European engineering for the small boat cruising market. The swing keel configuration with outboard rudder makes it particularly appealing for shallow water exploration and simplified maintenance, while allowing access to protected harbors and beaching opportunities that fixed-keel boats cannot enjoy. With a displacement of 2,645 pounds and moderate ballast-to-displacement ratio, the Deltania 22 2 strikes a reasonable balance between stability and performance. The fractional sloop rig provides versatile sail handling characteristics, while the fiberglass construction ensures durability and relatively low maintenance requirements. Her beam of 8.2 feet creates decent interior volume for weekend cruising while maintaining trailerable dimensions. The boat's SA/Displacement ratio of 18.95 suggests lively performance in moderate conditions, making her well-suited for coastal day sailing and weekend cruising rather than extended offshore passages. The capsize screening formula of 2.37 indicates reasonable stability for protected waters. This design appeals particularly to sailors seeking an easily managed boat for exploring coastal areas, small lakes, and shallow cruising grounds where her swing keel advantage truly shines.

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
 18.95
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
 158.68
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
 11.98
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. 5.92 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. 3.43 pounds/inch
