Dehler bought Etap. Then Dehler went bust. Hanse has bought the remains but Etap went elsewhere.
This from the owners' association dated May 09:
"As we are sure you are by now aware, Etap Yachting BV was placed into administration earlier this year shortly after the demise of Dehler Yachting, their parent company.
The manufacturing rights, name and all available stock have since been purchased by MIC , another Belgium company who are planning to recommence manufacture of the full range of Etap Yachts and Motor boat in Poland in June this year. Companies who were previously Etap dealers have since held meetings in Belgium with MIC and their intention is to appoint UK dealers in the near future. An immediate improvement in the availability of spare parts, particularly for older boats, has been reported by Woodrolfe Boat Sales."
