43' Hans Christian 43 Staysail Ketch

This 1980 Hans Christian Staysail ketch has been full time cruising the Sea of Cortez for the past 5 years. She has been professionally sailed, maintained, and upgraded throughout that time. The current owner is a USCG licensed captain and an American Sailing Association (ASA) instructor at all cruising levels. The boat has been sailed smartly and kindly and is now ready for a new owner to continue cruising. Hans Christians are well known for their sea kindliness, safety, and sailing abilities, as well as being the prettiest boat in most anchorages. The lines on the HC 43 are one of a kind, and when added with a full suite of tan bark sails, its just a boat that everybody notices. Over $30k in upgrades over the past 5 years makes this quintessential cruising vessel ready for her next adventure.
