hanse yachts review

Hanse has sold more than 200 of this boat's little sister, the 460 that was launched in 2021. That's a hard act to follow, but there's no doubt this 510 will appeal to sailors who want a lot more of a good thing. Photo courtesy of Hanse Yachts. LOA 52'5" (with bowsprit) LWL 47'7". Beam 16'1".

Voted European Boat of 2006, the J & J-designed, Hanse 400 still has all the attributes of a modern performance cruiser. Founded in 1993, Hanse became Germany's second largest production sailing yacht builder after extending its Greifswald site in 2005, and now produces 750 yachts annually including the Moody, Dehler and Privilege brands.

The Hanse 460 is the first in a new range of Hanses. From new designers, she is already a big hit, with over 200 sold and a European Yacht of the Year win to its name.

Hanse 371 review: Different by design - from the archive. The Hanse 371 is a lot of boat for the money - but to buy her for the price alone would be to miss the point, says David Harding. The ...

The Hanse 460 is unquestionably such a boat. How the crew lives aboard and moves around, both above and below decks, has clearly been thought about in the context of modern lifestyles. The port aft heads includes a shower as standard. Credit: David Harding. And this boat exudes style with a capital S.

With a length overall of 9.99 (32ft 9in) the 348's performance figures were respectable, more so considering the test boat was on loan from Pure Latitude Boat Club and had a full complement of safety clobber. The cockpit of the Hanse 348 is comfortable and secure, though stowage is limited. Credit: Graham Snook.

The Hanse 548 is a cleverly designed boat that evidently presses the right buttons for many people. She's built by a yard that has always done its own thing, setting its own trends and refusing ...

Boat Review: Hanse 588. This new full-size performance cruiser from Hanse replaces the successful Hanse 575, and includes updates and improvements developed with the help of input from active owners. With an extremely malleable interior (encompassing 72 possible variations) and a vast array of color, fabric and trim options, this is one mass ...

Sailing on a beat or close reach aboard the 455 proved to be a piece of cake, thanks to its well-designed rig, keel and rudder. Aboard our test boat (which carried the shoal keel) we easily managed 6.2 knots in just under 9 knots of wind at a 50-degree true wind angle, with our speed jumping to 7-plus knots in the gusts.

Hanse 588 Review Courtesy of Hanse Yachts. To my eye, perhaps the cleanest-looking yacht to be introduced in 2018 was the Hanse 588, the second-largest offering from the German builder in a line that now encompasses a range of boats from 31 to 69 feet. Look, I enjoy a clipper bow and sweeping sheer line as much as any traditionalist, but lately ...

The Hanse 418 displays a fine balance with sharp modern style and spirited sailing performance. Amid the design stampede to bring every conceivable comfort of home aboard, I found the new Hanse 418 to be refreshingly straightforward in both looks and performance. Below, accommodations are comfortable. On deck, things are orderly.

I tested the new Hanse 460 in the October 22 issue of Yachting Monthly and there's no doubt that it's as up-to-the-minute as a cruising boat designed for popular appeal could possibly be. Further down the size range, the Hanse 388 is based on a hull that was designed for the 385 back in 2012. The deck, cockpit, keel and accommodation ...

The Hanse 345's hull is all solid laminate set in polyester resin, with outer layers set in vinylester and finished with isophthalic gelcoat to resist osmosis. These days the tendency to maximize interior volume in modern production cruising boats is pretty much taken for granted. By elevating topsides and pushing maximum beam well aft ...

The Hanse 415 yacht, drawn by Judel/Vrolijk & Co., with an interior by Hanse's Water Vision, is the latest entry in the builder's lineup of sailboats that are, by design, both exciting and simple to sail. Controls—a pair of single reef lines, halyards, and a main and a jib sheet—are led to winches set just forward of the two helm ...

The Hanse 575 is built in Greifswald, Germany, to Germanischer Lloyd SE's ocean-going classification standards. The GRP hull includes a balsa core and is hand laid using polyester epoxy for all inner laminates and Vinylester resins in all outer laminates to resist blistering, as well as an Isophthalic gelcoat.

The new Hanse 460, which is a completely new hull, incorporates many of the latest trends of boat design that help create more volume below and on deck, while improving the sailing characteristics. Hull chines forward and aft create space for bunks in the cabins, while maintaining a narrow waterline, and providing a more powerful hull when heeled.

Conclusion. The Hanse 400 is a cruising boat for those who love to sail, and a club racer for those who enjoy a summer cruise. Its construction quality and price point qualify it as a cost-effective alternative in the 40-footer marketplace. The vessel has the right set of attributes for the light-air conditions of the bays and sounds of the ...

Boat Review: Hanse 315. The baby of the Hanse 5 series, the 315, looks surprisingly serious at the dock. She's got an almost predatory look, even compared to any 50-footers that might be in the area—which seems funny until she gets out on the water and kicks some booty. Between her easy-sailing rig that cuts down on tacking drama and her ...

Boat Review: Hanse 505. The boats built by this German yard just keep getting better and better. Following on the success of its 575 model, this new mid-range cruiser from Hanse is set to appeal to aspiring bluewater cruisers.
