ALM Delfino 64 Raised Pilothouse

Dutch-Built Steel Explorer Yacht | Long-Range Cruising Spec | Major Owner Upgrades

This ALM Delfino 64 Raised Pilothouse is a rare Dutch-built steel explorer yacht designed

for serious cruising, long-range comfort, and owner-operator confidence. Built by

Jachtbouw De Alm, the Delfino 64 features a steel multi-chine hull, seawater-resistant

aluminum superstructure, raised pilothouse, hydraulic bow and stern thrusters, fin

stabilizers, John Deere diesel power, Victron lithium-based electrical architecture, and

true passagemaking capability. ALM lists the Delfino 64 with a steel hull, 8mm

underwater plaFng, 6mm side plaFng above the waterline, aluminum superstructure,

10,500-liter fuel capacity, and an approximate 3,000 nautical mile range.

What separates this particular vessel is the ownership story. The current owner

purchased the yacht when she was only about one year old. The original owner

reportedly used her lightly, including a delivery trip to Norway, with roughly 300 hours

at that Fme. The second owner loved the platform but wanted to enhance the vessel for

a broader cruising audience and returned her to the Dutch shipyard on an open-

checkbook basis.

The result is a far more complete global cruising package with a factory hardtop,

watermaker, full air conditioning throughout, teak decking, Steelhead Marine ES1000

crane, lithium iron battery system, second alternator, Victron remote monitoring, 115V

conversion for U.S. use, flybridge refrigerator, upgraded Simrad systems, Starlink,

Bimini over the crane deck, upgraded accommodations, leather upholstery, and remote

docking, and full service history.

The seller is now upgrading to a larger yacht from the same Dutch shipyard, which

speaks strongly to his confidence in the builder, platform, and overall ownership

experience.

Builder & Design

The ALM Delfino 64 Raised Pilothouse is described by Jachtbouw De Alm as a Werner Yacht design with classic lines, modern details, cherry wood interior joinery, a large salon with open galley, raised pilothouse, three guest cabins plus full-beam master, two bathrooms, engine room, and aft lazarette/crew cabin.

Construction details from the builder include a steel multi-hull with 8mm underwater plating, 6mm side plating above the waterline, and a 5mm seawater-resistant aluminum superstructure. The builder also notes a John Deere 13-liter 425 HP engine, dry exhaust routed to the flybridge chimney, hydraulic Side-Power bow/stern thrusters, hydraulic anchor winch, SP67 Vector fin stabilizers, Simrad navigation, Victron lithium power, and a WhisperPower generator.

Exterior & Decks

The exterior layout is built around safe movement, serious cruising, and multiple usable outdoor zones. High bulwarks, wide walkaround side decks, and a Portuguese bridge reinforce the vessel’s offshore intentions while remaining practical for owner-operators.

Exterior highlights include:

• Steel displacement hull
• Classic Dutch trawler/explorer profile
• Wide side decks
• High bulwarks
• Portuguese bridge
• Forward seating area

• Factory hardtop
• Flybridge social area
• Boat deck / crane deck
• Bimini over large crane deck
• Stainless railings
• Tender storage
• Steelhead Marine ES1000 davit crane
• Tender with Suzuki outboard

This is a yacht designed to be used, not just shown. The deck layout supports the line handling, docking, anchoring, tender launch, and extended time aboard.

Flybridge & Boat Deck

The flybridge delivers both lifestyle and operational value. It includes a true secondary helm station with Simrad autopilot control, stainless steering wheel, throttle controls, communications handset, and excellent visibility.

Raised Pilothouse

The raised pilothouse is one of the strongest areas of the yacht. It is a true command center, not merely an interior helm. ALM describes the wheelhouse as having multiple displays, radar, chart plotter, cameras, autopilot, fishfinder, satellite compass, two steering chairs, sofa seating, a captain’s bed, side doors, and direct stairs to the flybridge.

• Bosch induction cooktop
• Miele Refrigeration
• AEG refrigeration/freezer unit
