Hanse 400

The Hanse 400 was painted almost from scratch. This boat has exceptionally high sailing qualities against the background of other mass 40-footers (British journalists who tested it, noted that the advantage of 400 in speed over competitors can reach one knot in the same wind conditions) and ease of operation: thanks to the automatic stacker (a standard feature in all Hanse), even one person can operate it.
Curiously enough, this boat is not only faster than its main rivals, but also more spacious and somewhat cheaper - it is more like a 37-footer at a price. The Hanse 400 can also be manufactured using epoxy resin, which makes its body stiffer and almost a third lighter.
