Overview
2/2011 PRICE DROP. THIS IS A GREAT DEAL ON THE HANS CHRISTIAN YOU HAVE ALWAYS WANTED! br>This well equipped HC 41 is completely outfitted for ocean voyaging and features a one of a kind factory interior with a workshop and extra storage. The HC 41 was built to be the strongest possible vessel of all their designs. She is a passagemaker built to work at sea in all seasons, with the ability to soar in the trades, light handed. Arguably the best designed 41 to leave the shipyard, and set apart by many upgrades and improvements, this HC 41 is the ideal single-handed or husband/wife sailing vessel for long passages. It has carried its previous owner across the Pacific, up and down the U.S. East Coast and to Bermuda.
This vessel has all the gear needed and proven for long distance voyaging,"in the spirit of Hal Roth, William Robinson, and Miles Smeeton" and an extensive list of creature comforts as well.
Her teak decks have been removed and replaced, her bottom is perfect. Family issues have cut short the current owner's cruising plans and he is selling her with many recent upgrades and all the cruising gear, spares, and tools you will ever need.

AccommodationsThe interior of this Han Christian is in fine shape. Her teak and holly floors, marble counters, brass accoutrements, and marvelous joinerwork are all in great condition. She has new Sunbrella upholstery fitted throughout. .
She has her roomy head in the forepeak with Raritan II electric toilet, marble top vanity and tiled separate stand up shower. Moving aft is the famous HC Pullman berth to port with storage under and hanging lockers to starboard. Privacy doors separate the forward cabin from the head and the salon.

Both settees feature storage behind and under and beautiful cabinetry outboard.
Further aft is the gourmet galley to port with marble counters and gleaming fixtures. Opposite is the forward facing nav station with swingout seat and large chart surface. Aft of the nav station is a 7' secure quarterberth with CARD unit mounted overhead. To port is the
separate walk-in workshop with bench mounted vise, ample work surface, storage bins and lockers for tools and spares. You must see this space to appreciate it. No hammering on the dining table or tools rusting in the bilge on this vessel!

Deck and Hull Equipment- Underwater hull was scraped, filled, barrier-coated and painted in 2003. Fresh bottom job 2009
- Decks were replaced in 2005 with Plasteek planking epoxied to the subdeck, eliminating 1200+ screws and providing cooler, non-slip decking, under the supervision of the Plasteek technical representative. A photo history of the work is available.
- GROUND TACKLE: two bowsprit mounted anchors: a 30kilo Delta and a large plow. The Delta is on all chain and the plow a chain/rope mixed rode. Incredible chain inventory on board. Anchorages in the South Pacific were typically 60 to 80 feet, requiring 400+ feet of chain. When anchoring in the Atlantic in 15-20 feet of water 200 feet of chain was removed and distributed through the boat on the centerline in canvas bags. This also proves useful for attaching 50 feet to the stern anchor when needed and makes a bag of chain available for the drogue, if needed.

Sails- Mainsail by North Sails, new in Spring 2004. It is a fully battened, loose footed, heavy main with jiffy reefing. Additional deep reef installed by North.
- 120% genoa new in 1995 and received little use from 1995 until 2004. With the heavy duty adjustable cars on the sail track, sail shape can be maintained through a wide range of reef angles. Dacron anti-chafe strips have been added to the sail at strategic points.
- The trysail is a mate to the genoa and is equally "reefable."
- The storm sail is like a "get home" engine on a power yacht. Made in 1995, it was new in the bag in 2004. It is flown on a dedicated, separate track on the mast next to the mainsail track, thus allowing rapid deployment in storm conditions.
- All sails professionally renovated after each long passage
- The cruising spinnaker is in excellent condition The spinnaker pole is carried vertically on the mast in its hardware and is well secured at both ends.
- Sayes Rig self-steering. This is the best design possible for the Hans Christian, utilizing a small stern-mounted sail driving a servo rudder which in turn drives the massive "barn door" rudder. There are no control lines or complicated rigging. A simple adjustment of the sail determines course. This unit runs faithfully, without electricity day after day in the trade winds.
Safety Equipment- Givens 6 man raft, the best available, not to be confused with inexpensive offshore models. After 10 years in the canister it inflated perfectly, the light went on, the stores were still good. Repacked in 2005.
- Safety harness and Jacklines
- Offshore medical kit
- 6' drogue chute with fairleads and chain for bow deployment
- Manuals, specification sheet, manufacturer contact info and other data sheets have been compiled for every piece of gearto facilitate offshore repairs. Mercedes and Kohler shop manuals are kept for the engine and gen-set. Spare pumps, rebuild kits, hose clamps of every size, hull plugs for all thru-hulls, an extensive electrical supply and spares box, multiple spares for each drive belt, three boxes of sorted stainless nuts, bolts, screws and brass replacement screws, blocks, pulleys, cleats, hoses, strainer baskets, gas regulator, standing rigging and lines are all carried on board. This vessel is equipped to be totally self-sufficient in virtually any situation.
