Mylor United Kingdom
A stunning example of the hugely respected Hanse 430 — a yacht that perfectly blends exhilarating sailing performance with luxury cruising comfort. Fast, elegant, and incredibly easy to handle short-handed, the 430 has earned a reputation as one of the standout modern performance cruisers in her class.
With one owner only until last season. this indulgently spacious and family orientated 43-footer has seen only light usage
Designed by the renowned Judel/Vrolijk team, she delivers the feel of a true sailor’s yacht while offering the comfort, space, and practicality demanded for extended cruising or effortless weekends away.
This yacht is everything a modern cruiser should be — responsive, quick, and remarkably easy to manage. The self-tacking setup and well-designed deck layout allow relaxed short-handed sailing, while the powerful hull design rewards you with genuinely exciting performance under sail.
Hanse’s primary philosophy has been that spaciousness needn’t come at the expense of performance, modern design innovations combine to give a comfortable yacht that can be simple to handle, amply demonstrated on the Hanse 430e model with a tall mainsail-driven rig, self-tacking headsail, an electrically driven main halyard winch, and twin steering positions.
This 2008 model presents beautifully, has been meticulously maintained, and is fully equipped for immediate adventures.
Highlights That Matter:
New Standing rigging March 2025
Effortless short-handed handling with self-tacking jib
Sleek modern lines that still turn heads today
Huge cockpit and luxurious interior volume
Desirable Spacious Owner’s Version layout
Yanmar 39hp diesel
Electric winch
Comprehensive navigation electronics
Autopilot
Heating & hot water

The Hanse 430 remains one of the most sought-after yachts in this size range — combining speed, style, comfort, and genuine offshore pedigree in one beautifully balanced package.
Viewings highly recommended.

Broker Comments
A stunning example of this extremely capable cruising yacht. Being the "e" or epoxy version makes her stiffer, lighter and faster and osmosis proof. Her spacious and bright interior provides ample accommodation with a large owners cabin and ensuite heads and shower forward making extended stays aboard a pleasure. Significant upgrades to bring her up to date for the decade ahead including Rig, Sail drive, Jib furler, Sail drive seal, Morse controls and instrument panel. Lightly used from new and presented to the market in excellent condition throughout In our view, well worth a viewing
