Continuing with our philosophy of naming our boats with names inspired by the Jules Verne universe, we present Kraken, our new Hanse 415. A contemporary, fast and very spacious cruiser both on deck and inside.
It also stands out for its Easy Sailing concept, so characteristic of the Hanse shipyard, pioneer in facilitating navigation with self-tacking jib and retractable bow thruster to facilitate maneuvering in port. The design is based on a hull that has an extended water line compared to its predecessors, and a beam that also widens at the stern. The result is a very wide boat, with an unobstructed deck and a wider passage thanks to the attachment of the shrouds at the outer end.
The Hanse 415 is the fastest cruising yacht in its class.The boat is easy to handle and easy to carry, a rare combination. To further facilitate the safety of our clients, the boat is equipped with all the technological advances such as PLOTTER, AIS, RADAR, DSC portable transmitter, etc.
In addition, we have gone for first-class equipment, with Hanse Smart Lightning (adjustable interior LED lighting). The Kraken also comes with an upgrade to a more powerful engine, its speed at only 1500 rpm is 6 knots.
