In 2007, Guy Delage began construction of this magnificent monohull sailboat 19,5 meters "Dagda", with particular ecological characteristics.
Superb 65-foot monohull, the ecological Dagda is capable of speeds worthy of maxi racing monohulls, while providing its passengers the most comfort safe.
Guy works alone and the boat is a reflection of the Celtic god whose name it bears god Dagda: omnipotent and omniscient.
The construction of Dagda is already well advanced. At first, the work began by presenting the more technical elements using composite materials weakest and the most expensive The rudders, mast of 23 meters length in one piece ...
Although the heat conditions in the shed are a little high, the dosage of the chemical appeared to give satisfactory results under vacuum. The yard is in good working order and equipment is not lacking.
“THE” sailing machine Dagda
"A monohull result of my thousands of miles, even a sailboat hybrid between comfort, speed and security, but especially a sailboat" green "resolutely turned towards the future and the preserving of the planet ..."
The age of the master, the desire to visit new countries and more distant, sometimes less hospitable, have created a new draft monohull under the sign of God Dagda Celtic omnipotent. Dagda will take you on cruises "extra ordinary "!
Dagda, ecological monohull 65 feet, is one of the boats that best combines performance, comfort and safety. It will be very pleaseant to the sea, with the latest equipments. light and comfortable design make it a cruising monohull among the speed of the most recent modern racing boats.
ALL THE DESCRIPTION DAGDA
Comfort and fun for everyone
Dagda can travel the oceans of the planet at an average speed between 9 and 9.5 knots with two crews...peaks at 20 knots!
Eight people can comfortably live independently for about a month and a half (freezer, refrigerator, water maker, and natural electricity).
On board, no odor of fuel that you continue ... and you hear no more diesel to recharge the batteries, nor to enter and exit ports.
A compressor and scuba tanks you easily explore the most beautiful anchorages in the fund.
An ROV (Remote Operated Vehicle) will visit visually funds up to 250 m deep.
And of course there will be the flying tender which will admire the scenery from up there. Spectacle and emotion guaranteed !....
Outside still a great area to sunbathe, scales and shower on the aft skirt swimwear
The cabins are spacious with storage

Speed
Dagda is an extremely swift sailing boat ... very close to new boats which turn race around the world. It is the result of the latest research on hydrodynamics which are the prerogative of the hulls of "Volvo Race” or Imoca. This gives a speed that no cruising sailboat of its size is now able to compete;
light through the building one off,
power through deep ballast and water ballast,
large wing surface,
Appendices sophisticated are its key strengths ...
The objective is to obtain stress-free an average speed equal to or greater than that of Itzamma my last 50 ft cat. His average is a reflection of his power and voltage lines.
average speed reduced crew: between 9 to 9.5 knots
top speed: 20 knots
Progress of Dagda building
The two rudders are ready to be installed
All pieces of the keel are made: the steel box, the two sides of the bulb and two sails
The boom and mast await their accessories
July 2006: the first real work. Here the assembly couples.
