Jordan, You have great taste in boats. This is my all time favorite boat when equiped with the pullman birth!! This boat will take you anywhere you want to go......safely! I can't say how much I love these boats. This is the first one within my price range. I wish I was younger so I could take on a project like that! Someone should get that and sail the world!
My dad was a broker back in the day and he had mostly engine powered yachts- but one time he bought an HC and, Oh Man, was that the coolest boat we ever owned. I loved crawling around all over. The wood was sooooo beautiful
Absolutely fascinated with the classic woodwork. Wish I lived closer . I could see my wife and I making an offer. Best wishes to whomever takes on this fun and exciting project !
Absolutely beautiful. I love older wooden boats like this, yeah, it's more maintenance than a steel or fiberglass hull, but those don't have the charm and beauty of wood. She's a very classy, classic vessel. If my lottery ticket hits, she's mine.
Ok, one last comment before I go work on a boat - much of that bronze you admire came from the battlefields of Southeast Asia and Korea. For decades, the locals searched battlefields for discarded relics of war. They policed the brass shell casings and sold it for scrap. A lot of that scrap ended up as deck and electrical components in Taiwanese boats.
Maybe but if you want to think of it like that. The bronze used in the ships you refer also used recycled bronze from other sources. Most metals you use get recycled and we’ve done that for thousands of years. Your gold necklace might have been the ring for a pharaoh
I've loved Hans Christian boats every since I saw my first one at the Miami boat show 20 some odd years ago. Wanted one right up until the first time I had to redo the brightwork on my boat. Every since then I look at a boat like that and get a twitch in my neck.
Ah this reminds me of SV Prism's HC 33. Jon's brother Chris now has his own boat and channel too! it's SV Avocet, they have awesome videos! For those who know :D
That is a very cool looking boat. I like the outside sleek design, it makes it look like it could go fast just sitting there. The design also makes it look like you could button down the hatch and survive a pretty big storm. I don’t know how much this boat would rock back and forth but it seems like a person would need to buy a catamaran to get the least amount of rocking and tossing back and forth. I don’t know anything about sailboats and not to be cruel but wood squeaks whether it has varnish or in a raw state. I used to build custom houses and some people would want their stairs carpeted and after the house starts to settle sometimes the stairs start squeaking, when carpeted you can drive 12 or 16 penny finish nails through the carpet and set them with a nail set, the carpet hides the finished nail and the nails keep the stairs from squeaking. I can see why you love that boat, it is a beautiful design and has a lot of potential. P.S. On the humorous/serious side, I am glad the Boogie Man or Captain Hook did not get ya’ll on that last spooky old boat. LOL Thank you two so much for the videos, it is so nice for ya’ll to show what is available and the possibilities. Thanks. 👍🙏✌️😎
One of my favourite yachts, very very good sea boat and very safe in all weather, due to there weight there slow in light winds but amazing sea keeping qualities in 50knot winds and 5 meter seas, this yacht will guarantee you and your families safety. If you were to buy a similar yacht new today you'd be talking $500 to $700K, another good point is these yachts will still be around in 40 years with a little maintenance.
I have always loved Hans Christian yachts and would love to own one. Been onboard a few and very similar to the Danish Colon Archer boats. I love the main berth being just far of midships. A very Shipy ship as Randy rightly says. Cheers guys. Andy UK
There’s something to be said for ambiance. Imagine a 22 day crossing or living in it docked somewhere(Scandinavia?)Good vibes and classic as it gets with expert craftsmanship. Love it
I owned an HC 38 for 10 years, had a lot of issues with quality. Bowsprit made of low grade mahogany/Luan rotted out. Rudder core became totally waterlogged, had to replace rudder. Low grade stainless tankage corroded and leaked. Cockpit steering box cover plywood rotted out, had to replace. Plywood throughout boat delaminated due to freshwater intrusion from poor fastenings, had to tear up and replace. Rigging corroded, again due to inferior stainless. Beautiful boat to look at but builder cut corners on too many details. But did sell it for just a little less than original purchase price. Ate all the repair costs. Would not buy another without very, very thorough survey by a real expert.
@Stephen Livers Boat was neglected when I bought it. Bad quality materials are not caused by neglect, rather by the builder cutting corners with quality as I stated. I actually owned one so I know what I'm talking about. No excuse for bad quality.
A Hans Christian is my favorite sailboat. And you did an excellent tour. I haven't seen a single Hans Christian where the company made any compromises.
Do you follow my brother SV Prism? They are cruising on a Hans Christian 33. We love the layout although it was not the boat for us when we ourselves were looking ;) We are jealous of their awesome head though!
@@johnunderwood-hp8rj Very cool! The HC 38's our gorgeous. Our friends had the very last 38' hull every made and were the ones who inspired us to sail north to Alaska unlike my brother who enjoys warmer climates lol. These boats can really take you anywhere and it's always nice to see them online. Im glad LTL got to check out their dream boat!
Lovely boat with the worst of the teak decks removed. The old school small cotpit and no AC(?) makes it a limited market but if you are not stuck on cruising only in dummy weather this could be a wonderful yacht to own. Cheers Warren
Love your boat tours my wife and I are looking for a affordable boat for cruising. Nice sailboat and priced right. May the Sun be at your back and stiff breeze to fill your sails. Much Peace and Love from North East Texas.
Great boat, is lovely sail with it when the wind is from 15 until 40 or up kn... Im owner of westsail32 and Im very happy with it...now I living on in the med...before I was owner of Westwind35,, another wonderfull Made in taywan, and also had a Nicholson39,she was the faster but, in the big sea,the other 2 is much more sweetty. Have fair wind nice guys, and sorry for my bad english.
Very nice to see you inspecting a Hans Christian, would be great to see you look over a Pacific Seacraft 37 one day, they have some of the best design I've seen in terms of safety at sea and passage making, keep up the good work!
HC’s are very lovely boats! Especially the 41, and for a couple have an excellent layout imo. All that bright work and bronze needs attention ( shame to see it let go... ) but she will look a picture if you put some work into it. They are excellent blue water boats and a solid quality build. Not sure about engine condition etc etc etc but assuming all that’s acceptable, fix it up a bit and you will have a real “head turner” which will take you anywhere in safety and comfort. Don’t pass this one up if there’s no nasties to contend with. Cheers
Nice boat - Love the Hans Christians! This particular boat had a major issue and sold for around $50k - Looking to buy a Hans in the next few months. Keep up the good work guys - Love your video's ! All the best!
Lines of Norwegian Pilot cutter, like a vessel I was sailing aboard early 60's called 'Gullmarn' which sailed twice around world. This is genuine seaboat.
The stern has a "pushpit" which is usually added to a canoe stern boat. The price is really attractive - she will sell quickly! Maybe you should buy her?
This is no steal. A 41 sold for 20,000 in langkawi malaysia recently. Its the refit that is the killer. Just before the 2008 crisis these boats sold for 120,000 to 150,000. Now you cant give a boat in that condition away. I bet if you offer 25,000 you take it home today. Its worth is only what someone will pay. I bought a tayana 37 in really rough shape in 2005 for 52,000 and i thought i got a fair deal. But it cost me 200,000 to refit to what i consider better than new. So no steal but its what i did and i dont regret the last 100,000 miles on her either. Monohulls are not worth anything anymore except to us romantic type sailors. This is my forever boat. I keep telling myself that anyway.
A “pushpit” is what is on the stern. HC are well built boats similar to Masons. Unfortunately like many boat builders of the 80’s the overuse of exterior wood was popular and is a PITA to take care of, almost best to paint over unfortunately. The bronze components were nice to see for sure.
Hey guys interesting video Hans Christian is probably one of my favorite monohulls as the double ended Hall is very sturdy and sea Worthy with today's modernelectronics the only reason you're going to sink your boat is hitting something in the water like a whale a shipping container or a unchartedreef and the biggest selling point of the Hans Christian is the hall is about an inch-and-a-half thick solid fiberglass
@@LearningtheLines I'll have to see how my wife likes sailing whenever I get through with my refit. I love my Nor'sea 27 right now, but I like looking at some bigger boats sometimes.
Hey Guys. My wifes uncle who is a yacht broker owned 2 Hans christians. I have loved these boats for years. The craftsmanship of the boats are world renowned. According to him the best years they where built where 84 to 86. They are slow but will take anything the ocean can throw at you and you will be safe. The inside looks great and the decks need work but this would be a great boat to bring back to its original beauty. In any Marina they are well looked at just like a Bristol Channel cutter which is smaller but can also take you across any ocean. Have fun.
We love them too but got an older Island Packet 35 ('86) instead. We can't be happier and already storm tested down to the keys and back. No problems. Check them out.

Hans Christian; most beautiful sailing vessels in the world!
Teak teak teak! No mahogany on HC's, not even deck core... all teak. Love everything about them. Yes, even the polishing and bright work.
I grew up in Florida. I know that boat. ( I've seen her under sail.) HC's are GORGEOUS!!!
Same...I had heard the boat went super cheap when it sold...no idea why....

I love these old boats that look and feel like a shippy ship.
This boat needs a lot of love
Love the Hans Christians for family or couple sailing. My fave boats too!
Absolutely fascinated with the classic woodwork.
Wish I lived closer .
I could see my wife and I making an offer.
Best wishes to whomever takes on this fun and exciting project !
What beautiful boat. I hope it's owners keep her well maintained. Thnx you guys
I could see you guys owning this boat. I could see myself owning it for that matter.
HC 38 was always one of my favs... the 33 is great because of that mid ship berth.. love all of the HC'S
The pulman berth is a cool feature. My brother Jon loves it. Have you checked out his RUclips channel SV Prism?
It's a nice shipy ship... I really love those old style butterfly hatches oh, and all the bronze switch I would polish up if it was mine
wow .. for me, this was love at first sight
That would be beautiful with a lot of brite work and a refit. Very beautiful.
I would love to have something like that with a shoal draft but all the really cool and well laid out boats are over 5’ draft.
Absolutely beautiful. I love older wooden boats like this, yeah, it's more maintenance than a steel or fiberglass hull, but those don't have the charm and beauty of wood. She's a very classy, classic vessel. If my lottery ticket hits, she's mine.
Um it’s a glass hull
Im in love with this boat
All HC boats are beautiful!

You hipsters are lovin' that shipster!! 😄⛵️
beautiful craft in every way thats a sail
I wish this was three years from now!!!!! Fabulous boat.
I’m with you Jordan, HC is on my short list of dream boats.
They are fantastic and reliable boats.
Wow, I love this one guys! Thank you so much for the boat tour videos, y'all do a great job with the details and Extra insights!
Well presented vid guys. Hope you're being paid for these, because you do them very, very well.
Love that Pullman berth! Really gorgeous boat and so well-crafted.
What a beautiful sailboat ⛵
This boat is really really cool ...for sure
I can see why this is your favorite. With a little TLC that would be a classy beautiful boat with a practical layout.
I love these boats, they are at the top of my list, built to last and keep you safe :)
They are fantastic. My brother has cruised the world aboard his HC 33 and we were lucky enough to visit for a few passages in Costa Rica.
When my ship comes in I've got to buy me one of these . Love the boat !!!
Good value for this vessel. Would sell immediately on the West Coast.
She is one beautiful boat! The just ooze offshore performance. From the protected canoe stern to the well design functional interior.
Good layout for a small monohull. Practical and functional. Double Ender rock and roller ..good video thanks

Great boat, nautical, nice layout. Just a little smaller than needed fo me....Thanks
I loved this boat!
Thanks for posting and sharing this beautiful boat.
Trying to find the one you highlighted that only h as d 50 hrs on engine
That is such a nice boat even with the teak on deck looking as tired as it does if i had the money id snatch it up and make it my retirement plan.

"Shippy Ship" LOL...ie Salty Look, I love those sailboats!
They are beautiful boats and need a lot of constant upkeep to keep them that way. A Centennial or Roberts Spray steel hull is my dream machine.
Pulpit over the bowsprit
Hans Christian's including the 43 are 3 boats on my short list. Great review. Great videos keep it up.
Thanks for another great tour of a classic design!

The stern has a "pushpit" which is usually added to a canoe stern boat. The price is really attractive - she will sell quickly! Maybe you should buy her?
Lotta work maintaining an old boat.
Lotta work maintaining any boat so she might as well be a beautiful one.

You will see many anchorages with the Hans Christian. As soon as you guys get out there you will see. Especially in the South Pacific.
Especially since it is basically a stolen design. Several Taiwanese Built the same boats.
Not sure I understand. We are talking Hans Christian brand. Your saying knockoffs with same name? They were built in Taiwan for many years.
Ask Perry about the HC 36. If memory serves that is the one that ended the relationship permanently.
I do know it went sour.
My dream boat!
A “pushpit” is what is on the stern. HC are well built boats similar to Masons. Unfortunately like many boat builders of the 80’s the overuse of exterior wood was popular and is a PITA to take care of, almost best to paint over unfortunately. The bronze components were nice to see for sure.
WOW !
Beautiful girl and beautiful Boat.
Hey guys interesting video Hans Christian is probably one of my favorite monohulls as the double ended Hall is very sturdy and sea Worthy with today's modernelectronics the only reason you're going to sink your boat is hitting something in the water like a whale a shipping container or a unchartedreef and the biggest selling point of the Hans Christian is the hall is about an inch-and-a-half thick solid fiberglass
My brother Jon loves his HC 33, Prism! Great boats for sure.
Love Hans Christian boats. I like pulman berths. Would like to see one in person (berth and HC any length)
Both the 33 and the 41 really feel very similar. It's really just a question of if you want the extra cabin and head or not.
@@LearningtheLines I'll have to see how my wife likes sailing whenever I get through with my refit. I love my Nor'sea 27 right now, but I like looking at some bigger boats sometimes.
