AF-H325 (Hanse 325)

Perfect starter choice This Hanse 325 suits couples or small families new to sailing or wanting a relaxed, manageable boat. At just under 10 metres, she's forgiving to handle but still gives you a proper sailing experience without the complexity of a larger yacht.

Smart practical features The autopilot and chart plotter take stress out of longer passages, while solar panels mean you can cruise sustainably without constantly running the engine. A sprayhood and bimini keep you comfortable in variable weather, and the dinghy opens up proper exploring beyond the mooring.

Excellent value proposition At €1,175 per week with a modest €2,500 deposit, this is genuinely affordable sailing, roughly half the cost of many comparable 10-metre boats. You get solid core equipment without paying for unnecessary luxury.

One honest note With only two cabins and four berths, sleeping arrangements get cosy fast if you're chartering with another couple. AF Yachting's 4.3-star rating across just 3 reviews suggests limited feedback history, so it's worth reaching out directly about their support and base facilities before booking.
