2023 Hanse 418 for Sale – 41 ft – Hua-Hin, Thailand

The Judel/Vrolijk-designed 418 is built at the Hanse yard in Greifswald, Germany, and replaces the 415. It shares the same hull as the 415 but sports an updated interior and completely new deck layout that includes twin wheels, fold-up helm seats, a stout centerline drop-leaf table in the cockpit and modest bulwarks, upon which the lifeline stanchions sit. Inside the wide beam offer three comfortable cabins and two bathrooms.

The 418’s considerable beam is carried forward into the owner’s cabin, making a king-size island berth possible, along with either a pair of hanging lockers or a locker to port, and a head and shower to starboard. In the saloon, a large U-shaped couch and drop-leaf table are to starboard; opposite is a settee with a rear-facing nav station at its aft end, against the head and shower compartment’s forward wall. The yacht is currently lying in Pranburi.

on deck, all sail-control lines are led aft from the mast under removable seahoods to a bank of clutches and a Lewmar winch just forward of each wheel. Line bins adjacent to the wheels keep the cockpit clutter free. Upwind, the self-tending jib makes tacking a turn-the-wheel endeavor; off the breeze, the double-ended mainsheet ensures control of the full-batten main is close at hand to either wheel.
