The Hanse 385 designed by Judel/Vrolijk is proving to be a huge success. The concept of a fast, yet spacious cruiser with striking good looks has been well received all over the globe.

Since its release in August 2011, Hanse yachts have already sold 60 models worldwide with Team Windcraft taking 10% of this production for Australia and New Zealand.



Hanse 385 number 59 has just been ordered by a couple from New Zealand. The couple admired the new Hanse 5 series styling while they were on board the Hanse 445 at the Auckland International Boatshow.

Following this high demand, delivery ex-factory of the Hanse 385 is already at February 2012 and the introductory price will end on 31st October.

Luckily Team Windcraft have a number of pre-booked 385 production slots.

For 2011 Team Windcraft has two 385s on order with completion due in November and December. These are the last two Hanse 385s at the introductory price.

Both models include comprehensive cruise, comfort and navigation packs with fun extras like black composite twin wheels and a fridge in the cockpit table.



Hull number 23 will be ready for the much anticipated Australian Premiere at Melbourne Boatshow in early February.
