1979 Hans Christian 43T Ketch
This is a Hans Christian 43 Ketch built 1979 with extras no other one has: Stainless steel davit with restored classic, and California registered, 1970 Dinghy, GSM Booster, newly rebuilt engine (250h), AGM batteries with 60A battery charger, 2kW generator, two 135W Solar Panels and a wind generator (all new).
Everything in top working condition. Many new parts. Many spare parts. Hans Chrisitians tend to leak due to the screw down teak deck, therefore 1200 screws were replaced and sealed, and the caulking replaced; this deck is not leaking (typical replacement cost of teak deck is $1000 per foot of boat length). The plexi-glass in all hatches were professionally replaced with ½ inch thick safety glass and custom made hatch covers were made. A GSM booster with the booster antenna on top of the main mast was installed to have everywhere top 4G LTE reception. To have off-grid lasting power new 4 AGM batteries in combination with a 60A battery charger were installed. A portable 2kW Honda generator charges the batteries within 2h; you can be off-grid easily for an extended period of time with this boat and its Katadyn Power Survivor water-maker. All original invoices and service manuals are available. The Cape Horn Wind vane get you anywhere in the world with ease. All outside teak is not varnished, but Tung oiled (which makes the maintenance very easy). The boat is ready to be taken anywhere.
The boat is available to see in Napa, CA. Free delivery to anywhere on the US West Coats. I also consider trade for Trawler up to $350000 and I will pay the difference in cash. The Trawler can be anywhere in the US, Caribbean, or Mexico.

2016 Hans Christian Yachts 48 Traditional Cutter/Ketch
The Queen of the Hans Christian fleet has been proven over the decades as one of the worlds finest cruising yachts. All the specifications prove this out along with up to 12 year circumnavigations. Consider the High bulwarks, the custom teak work that can be as much or as little as you wish, The cutaway forefoot that allows quick tacking along with plenty of room for an optional bow thruster. Think of the masterful craftsmanship found in the interior and exterior, think of the fully hung rudder that is massive and fastened to the entire trailing edge of the keel, consider the propeller armature that protects the prop from lines and floating objects that are impossible to avoid. These blue water cruisers offer a great deal to all true sailors, in all conditions found at sea.
There are many options such as full 1" stainless steel railing around the boat, bow thrusters, custom teak rub rails with bronze or stainless strikers, mast pulpits with pin rails and dunnage boxes, custom deck house for cockpit, full electronic packages that are installed at the area of commissioning. Generators up to 8KW, air conditioning, watermakers. and you name it, we can do it as long as it falls into the design objectives.
These boats are all built to custom order, so a price must be quoted by the total picture. Shipping costs from your Thailand yard vary depending on the port of entry. ,
