Fresh from production. The first Hanse 410 model floats and sails. YACHT was the first magazine on board the brand new tourer for the important twelve-metre class for a test - even though the upholstery for the interior had unfortunately not yet found its way onto the ship. The first photos from the exclusive test run can be found in the gallery

In the test on the Greifswalder Bodden in very different wind conditions, the Hanse 410 is convincing under sail. The design from the Berret-Racoupeau studio in France shows a high performance potential, runs an unusual height on the wind and is light and agile when steering. So much for now. The full test report with a complete assessment of the sailing characteristics and comfort on and below deck as well as a categorisation of the many details and prices will follow in the next issue of YACHT. Issue 19/2023 will be published at the beginning of September.

Hanseyachts in Greifswald is gradually completing the latest generation of its cruising yachts. As the latest model, the Hanse 410 is now set to build on the success of its larger sisters, the Hanse 460 (to the presentation) and 510 (to the test report). The new 410 now follows suit with a great deal of visual and conceptual fidelity to the line. The design and the general layout on deck have been adopted. This means, among other things, two tables in the cockpit for a clear passage through the cockpit and a consistent return of all halyards, sheets and trim lines to the helm stations. The self-tacking jib is standard, but the Hanse 410 can also be equipped with an overlapping genoa with hoisting points on deck. A furling mast is also available on request.

Unlike its larger sisters 460 and 510, the galley of the Hanse 410 is no longer built into the saloon as a long element, but is positioned in a very generously designed L-shape at the companionway. This leaves more space in the saloon for a second sofa on the starboard side and the option of proper navigation. The customer can choose whether to have a second wet room in the spacious owner's cabin. Variance is also available for the aft cabin: Either two symmetrical aft cabins or one cabin plus a large and accessible forecastle, which can be accessed either directly from the cockpit or from the inside through a door.

The new Hanse 410 is specified with a built-in diesel engine from Yanmar with 39 hp, Saildrive propulsion and a two-blade fixed pitch propeller. A larger machine with 56 hp is also feasible. And: As an alternative to the built-in diesel, Hanse offers the 410 with an electric drive. The basic price for the Hanse 410 is 299,760 euros gross, including 19 % VAT and a single set of Amwind sails from Elvstrøm.
