Broker's Comments
This Hanse 400 appears to be a well presented and sensibly equipped example of this popular Judel/Vrolik designed cruising yacht. Offering a good balance of performance and comfort, she looks to be set up nicely for both coastal sailing and longer passages, and is currently lying on the Clyde.
Stepping aboard, she seems well arranged for ease of handling, with a practical cockpit protected by sprayhood and dodgers, and equipment that suggests she has been used for proper cruising. Notably, she benefits from a windvane self steering system in addition to autopilot, which may appeal to those considering extended or short handed sailing. The ground tackle also appears substantial, with a Delta anchor and 80m of chain supported by an electric windlass.
Her sail inventory has been updated with both mainsail and furling headsail replaced in 2021, which is a desirable feature and should give confidence to a prospective buyer. The Selden rig and general deck layout are typical of Hanse designs of this era, offering straightforward sail handling and a clean working deck.
Down below, she offers the popular three cabin, two heads layout, providing comfortable accommodation for family cruising or entertaining guests. The saloon appears bright and useable, while the galley is well equipped with oven, hob, refrigeration, freezer and microwave, suggesting she is set up for extended stays aboard. The inclusion of pressurised hot water further adds to onboard comfort.
Mechanically, she is fitted with a Yanmar diesel engine on saildrive, with recent servicing, antifouling and anode replacement carried out in 2026, which indicates ongoing maintenance. The electrical setup includes shore power and solar charging, giving useful flexibility when away from marinas.
Overall, this Hanse 400 gives the impression of a capable and well specified cruising yacht with some thoughtful additions. With her updated sails, strong equipment list and practical layout, she could represent a very good opportunity for someone looking to get afloat with minimal immediate outlay.
