Marketing Description
Star In The Wind is a great example of the Hanse 355 - a boat designed for sailors who value performance, comfort, and effortless handling. At just over 35 feet, it’s remarkably easy to sail short-handed, thanks to its self-tacking jib and thoughtfully placed controls – leaving you free to enjoy the journey as much as the destination. Below deck, the Hanse 355 offers a bright, airy interior with generous headroom, abundant natural light, and a clever layout that maximizes both living space and storage. Whether you’re cruising with family, hosting friends, or chasing the horizon, it delivers a refined balance of speed, stability, and onboard comfort. From her sleek lines and responsive helm to the craftsmanship in every detail, Star In The Wind is more than just a yacht – it’s your invitation to explore with confidence and style.
