Hanse 315 Walkthrough | Windcraft Review

Windcraft's commissioning manager Ross Turner walks us through the Hanse 315 to show off some of the clever design aspects of this sporty and spacious 30-footer from Hanse.

Great 'Walkthrough' from a guy who has spent his fair share of time on board Hanse yachts and has knowledge based on experience. The thing I like most about Ross and his 'TeamWindcraft' Walkthrough/Reviews are that you can sense his genuine pride and enthusiasm!

Take a look at some of his other Hanse 'Walkthrough' videos on the channel they are even more detailed and as prospective or current Hanse owners you pickup some good tips (plus the audio quality issues are fixed) .

Good review, I own one since 2018, and love her . If the person is aware of what they will use the boat for, and ad only the extras really needed, a very friendly price can be configured . Base price around 75 K Euros netto, is bit miss leading, but in fact true . ( no swim platform , tiller - no dual wheels ) . For lake Balaton I have chosen shallow keel, in mast furling, FCL sails, with Cross sails ( Code Zero ), carbon dual wheels, teack cockpit

Audio has issues but an interesting video

The keel is bolted on. Id be scared of the thing falling off. Is the keel lowered into place before the coachroof lid and deck is fitted. Does the keel include a flange to prevent it falling through the hull with stainless steel 2 inch diameter bolts. Lots of stress on a keel which not good if snaps off.

Enjoyable review. Thanks very much. Your audio needs a bit of work.

versus similar size Beneteau -- which is better in light wind? I know Hanse is a sturdier boat - does this translate into less enjoyable in light wind? Thanks.

Would like to know the sail away price for that boat? Nice boat.

Nice review but somewhat spoilt by no review of the galley and the unnecessary music drowning out the narrative outside

[jacmaclar]

Is it possible to hove-to with the jib line (Easy-Sail System) running to the helm? Because you can't hove-to with the standard self-tacking system (unless you get add-on equipment, which doesn't seem to help.) Please clear this up for me. Thanks,
