Perfect for couples and small families wanting a modern, comfortable cruising experience without excessive complexity. The Hanse 388 is a well-balanced 38-footer that handles beautifully and feels spacious for its size.

Strong build quality shows in the 2022 build year and thoughtful spec, bow thruster, autopilot, and chart plotter make single-handed sailing genuinely relaxed, while the swimming platform and sprayhood add real comfort in variable Nordic weather. The three cabins sleep seven, so you've flexibility for mixed-group dynamics.

Good value proposition at €4,200 per week for a modern, well-equipped boat of this calibre and age. The modest €2,500 deposit suggests a straightforward, friendly operator, though you'll want to confirm included kit versus extras when booking.

Location matters here. Sweden's base means you'll likely fly into Stockholm or another Scandinavian hub, check transfer logistics with Yachtcharter Sweden, as that journey time will eat into your first day. Summer sailing in the Stockholm archipelago is stunning, but April or September require realistic weather planning.
