Marvellous. Had 10.5 knots out of my 371 under spinnaker. Managed 12 knots briefly in the Bay of Biscay surfing down a roller. Thought that was doing well. But 16!? Mind you, that was with cruising gear and inexperienced crew. Just proves what a versatile boat the 371 is. So easy to sail, very balanced, and fast.

Hello Marcust, That are numbers which makes you smile. Not only the 371 is a very fast boat but also the 341. Last year on our maidentrip on the North Sea from Ijmuiden to Stellendam we had 15 knots on the GPS. 15 KNOTS!!!!!! That was very fast. It was also surfing down a roller. The rest of the trip between 8 - 12 knots. The wind was 6 to 7 almost from behind. We had a very small mainsail and the normal jib. We didn't expected that a 34 foot sailingyacht could be so fast. We were very pleasantly surprised. Hanseyachts are very fast yachts!!!! greetings from Holland, Martijn from the "NO FEAR" HANSE 341 (#133)
