KATHLEEN

Kathleen, a highly sought after 38MKII Hans Christian is a classic blue water cruising, cutter rigged, full keel boat with a reputation as a very solidly constructed boat with a sea kindly design. It says "Let's explore!". The 38 MKII, not to be confused with the HC 38 Traditional (T), is a traditionally styled yacht that sails with remarkable performance. The MKII carries more sail on a taller rig all moved forward 18”, a wider beam, a better sail area to displacement ratio and increased volume of tankage than the traditional. One of the nicest features of this yacht is the light pressure on helm while sailing due to the semi-balanced rudder. This helps eliminate wear and stress on the Autohelm (or helms person) and contributes to the pleasure of passage making.

Hans Christian yachts are all hand built. The interior is made by highly skilled craftsmen using only the finest materials and they are truly a work of art. All interior joinery work is select grade solid Burmese teak. Due to the traditional nature of a Hans Christian yacht, a large amount of custom bronze fittings are used, all manufactured locally and finished in house. Bulkheads and interior hull walls of all cabinets and lockers are planked in solid teak. The countertop in the head is marble. Every interior and exterior detail has been well thought out to give her owners the best in a completely seaworthy and beautiful vessel.

Kathleen is a single owner boat with a wonderful cruising history. She is on our sale/sail dock in Emery Cove Yacht Harbor and ready to be shown.
