About the HANSE 341
Centerboard BU: 1.05m/3.42'
The Hanse 341 is a fractional sloop designed by Judel/Vrolijk and built by Hanse Yachts, with production records indicating a build year of 2003. While the exact total hull count is unspecified in the source data, this model represents a specific era of German production focused on performance cruising.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and performance-oriented sailors who prioritize interior volume and modern sailing characteristics over heavy offshore displacement. It is well-suited for those seeking a manageable fractional rig with a comfortable 33.96 ft LOA footprint.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 11354.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 1.99, the Hanse 341 is designed primarily for coastal and nearshore cruising rather than extreme bluewater expeditions.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats from this era include the Beneteau First 343 and the Bavaria 36, which share similar fractional rig configurations and performance-oriented hull forms. These models offer similar interior layouts and target the same market of active weekend cruisers.
