General Description Built at the Ta Shing Yacht Building Company in Taiwan in 1978, the HC 43 is known for the high degree of wood craftsmanship evident throughout the interior and exterior, fit and finish. This is a true offshore capable yacht. The Hans Christian features quality construction with ease of handling, living comfort and general performance in a top-quality cruising sailboat. The hull offers raw speed potential due to long waterlines, a high range of positive stability, and sufficient bow overhang to deflect boarding seas. She features an aft helm that allows for better visibility, and produces a much more sea-kindly motion with less pitching. A canvas dodger is standard and a fixed dodger / deckhouse is optional. The deck has been designed for single-handed sailing. Primary winches are less than a step away from the helmsman. Below decks, the interior features a traditional two-stateroom layout with one head with a shower. Comfortably sleeping eight, this layout provides real comfort for extended living aboard! Actual Condition It is reported that while at its slip, the Hans Christian took on water from a thru hull leak, and sank in about 12' of water. It is also reported some clean-up has been done on this vessel. This will make a great project boat...don't miss this opportunity! * Please inspect carefully for further damage before bidding.
