Head to head
The better figure on each line is in orange. Where either side has too few boats, we say so rather than pick a winner.

Each build year's Gauge Estimate, for the 5 years both have boats in. Pooled across those years (8 and 22 boats), the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 410 asks 8.2% more than the Dehler 38.

A year of ownership
Each at its Gauge Value, on a South Coast marina berth, 44 engine hours a year (the median of 103 UK-listed sailing boats that report hours). An estimate in pounds from published rates, not a quote.
Each line is the middle of the cited range, to the nearest fifty pounds. Depreciation is a year of age on each model's published curve, at its Gauge Value, and stays out of the totals.
The Dehler 38 has no published depreciation curve, so its depreciation is withheld.

At the same age the Dehler 38 is cheaper: the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 410 asks 8.2% more than the Dehler 38 across 5 shared build years. Their Gauge Values, the median asking prices of all the boats we observed whatever their age, are £168,500 and £218,000.
Which holds its value better?
We can't say yet. The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 410 loses about 9.9% of its asking price a year of age, but the Dehler 38 has no published depreciation curve: we fit one from at least 20 boats across six build years and publish it only when the fit holds. We have 15 Dehler 38 boats across 11 build years.
Which spends less time on the market?
Boats of the Dehler 38 had been listed a median of 438 days when we last saw them, against 793 days for the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 410. That is time listed so far, not time to sell, which we don't measure yet. 0% of the Dehler 38 boats we saw 14 or more days apart cut their asking price, against 37% of the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 410 boats.
How do you compare them like for like?
We compare boats of the same build year. For each of the 5 years both models have boats in, we take the ratio of their median asking prices in today's prices, then pool the years, giving more weight to years with more boats on both sides. The figure is Indicative because the thinner side has 8 boats in those years. The Gauge Values compare the whole fleets instead, so they mix boats of different ages.
