Our Philosophy
Delphia: motorboats designed for peaceful inland and coastal cruising
At Delphia, we design comfortable and convenient river and coastal cruising boats for those who choose to go on an adventure, and enjoy taking their time on the water.
Navigation becomes a moment of relaxation: a simple, uncompromising trip where you can enjoy every stop along the way.
This philosophy is based on a strong belief: a well-designed boat should be easy to use, simple to maintain and, naturally, pleasant to live on.
Our yachts are designed for exploring canals, rivers and coastal areas, and offer comfortable living space on board that can be enjoyed in all seasons. Designed both for living on and navigation, they focus on ease of use and enjoyable adventures.
At Delphia, we call that Mindful Cruising.
- Martin Schemkes, Brand director
Our roots: the Scandinavian culture and way of life on the water
Delphia was created in 1990 in Poland, between the Masurian Lakes and the Baltic Sea. Our vision emerged from this environment: to design houseboats suitable for calm waters, inland waterways and protected coastlines.
In 2018, Delphia joined the Beneteau Group, the world leader in the boating industry. This partnership has strengthened our industrial expertise and our capacity for innovation, and has at the same time, preserved our identity: to offer functional boats, built to last.
The values that inspire Delphia
Serenity
Boating is a pleasure, without any constraints.
Escape
Every navigation period is a journey that invites exploration and contemplation.
Practicality
Every choice has a clear and specific purpose; all space is optimised
Responsibility
The leisure boating sector must evolve towards more responsible practices
These values influence the design of every Delphia yacht, right from the layout of the interior spaces to the selection of materials
Comfortable navigation : a different way of navigating
Since its early days, Delphia has been a pioneer in the design of boats for inland waterway cruising and coastal sailing. Our vision is based on a simple idea: navigation does not have to be fast to be exciting.
It requires space, comfort, a convivial atmosphere.
This approach reflects the changing landscape of European recreational boating, where an increasing number of leisure boaters are seeking an affordable, safe experience that focuses on exploration and comfort rather than performance.
Propulsion systems that reflect our philosophy
To ensure ease of navigation, the technology must remain consistent with our vision. Delphia offers adapted solutions for living on board your boat and navigating all year round.
In terms of motorisation, we provide configurations suited to each programme: ideal and cost-effective solutions for inland waterways as well as more powerful engines to navigate at sea safely. Our models are equipped with modern, fuel-efficient diesel engines that comply with environmental standards, offering reliability and efficiency for both river and coastal navigation at moderate speeds.
Most of our models are also available with electric propulsion, which offers quiet operation and zero local emissions, making them ideal for inland waterways, canals and protected natural areas.
Whatever solution is adopted, our aim remains the same: to ensure a harmonious, comfortable and sustainable navigation experience.
Our models
Every Delphia model reflects the same ambition: to provide boats designed for river exploration and peaceful coastal cruising.
