2017 Hanse 455 – Fully Equipped Bluewater Cruiser – VAT Paid – Ready for Summer 2026 This Hanse 455 is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully maintained, extensively upgraded and genuinely turnkey cruising yacht. Privately owned and carefully maintained, she combines the performance and comfort Hanse is known for with a very high level of equipment usually found on much more expensive boats. Unlike many comparable listings, this yacht is fully operational, recently serviced and immediately ready to sail for the 2026 season with no major work required. Whether you are looking for a comfortable Mediterranean cruiser, a liveaboard yacht or a capable long-distance family boat, she offers exceptional value in today’s market.

Why This Boat Stands Out: Many Hanse 455 currently on the market are: less equipped, VAT unpaid, in need of refit work, or priced significantly higher once upgraded.
This yacht offers a rare combination of: condition, equipment, maintenance history, and realistic pricing. An ideal opportunity for buyers looking for a serious cruising yacht without surprises.
