The Hanse 385 was their best-selling model between 2011 and 2016 and it is easy to see why. During her current ownership she has proved genuinely easy to sail, aided by the self-tacking jib, whilst retaining surprisingly fast passage speeds. Ningaloo boasts a great inventory including recently upgraded cruising laminate sails, a gennaker, full B&G navigation suite, folding propeller, solar panel and plenty more.
