Exterior of the Vessel

At Hanse, you can always rely on high-quality craftsmanship. Their 385 is built using a sandwich construction with robust reinforcements, and the mast is firmly secured to the bottom with chain-mounted plates, making the boat suitable for ocean sailing.

Visibility and Maneuverability

The solution with a pair of ‘Jefa’ steering wheels offers excellent visibility and easy boarding. The superior steering system, long rudder, and T-shaped keel ensure effortless handling, whether moving forward or backward.

 

Swim Platform and Cockpit

The newly designed cockpit table includes storage space, a refrigerator, and a built-in plotter, with some 385 models even featuring a grill. The large swim platform allows easy access to and from the water, and it is also very useful for sunbathing. Additionally, its wide passage gives you the impression of being on a much larger yacht when docking in a marina.

Interior

The interior is very spacious for a yacht of this size. It offers a standing height of 195 cm and ample storage space. Its spaciousness is reminiscent of larger Hanse models such as the 445 and 495. During the day, the interior is exceptionally bright, functional, and attractive, while at night, the well-placed lighting offers many ambient options, creating a unique atmosphere.

Modern and Innovative Design

Everything is adjustable and designed for the most user-friendly experience. With just the push of a button, you can pre-program the cooking mode or set ambient lighting for relaxation after dinner.

Numerous ventilation hatches provide excellent airflow control, and in some vessels, depending on the owner, an air conditioning system is also installed.

Propulsion

The Hanse 385 is equipped with a Volvo diesel engine with 27 HP, offering enough power for confidently covering long distances as well as maneuvering in tight spaces, such as docking in a marina. A cruising speed of slightly over 6 knots can be achieved at 2000 RPM, while with a smooth and economical ride at 2,400 RPM, a speed of 7.2 knots is attainable.

Conclusion

The 385 is a superbly crafted, thoughtfully designed sailing yacht full of practical innovations, the result of collaboration with expert sailors who know what, how, and why. We recommend it to all sailors, from experienced sea wolves to those who have recently been captivated by sailing.
