Genovefa has been lovingly cared for by a single lady owner since new and has primarily seen twilight racing in the harbour, with some local cruising. This Hanse 345 is ready to go, with the standing rigging replaced in February 2024 and new main and jib sails. The engine service and antifouling were completed in August 2025, and a safety audit for twilight racing (Category 7) was carried out in September 2025.
The Hanse 345 is renowned for its excellent balance between performance and comfort. It offers responsive handling for racing while remaining stable and easy to manage for cruising. The interior is well thought out, with two double cabins, a bright saloon with settees and a dining table, a fully equipped galley, and ample storage throughout. The cockpit is spacious and ergonomic, ideal for sailing with friends or family, and the lines are led efficiently to the cockpit for easy handling. Genovefa is fitted with modern electronics including chartplotter, instruments, and autopilot, making navigation and handling effortless. The rig features a Selden aluminium mast with swept-back spreaders, furling genoa, slab reefing mainsail, whisker pole, and all lines led to the cockpit, perfectly equipped for both competitive sailing and relaxed cruising.
This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a well-maintained, lightly used Hanse 345 that combines excellent sailing performance, ease of handling, and modern onboard comfort.
The yacht is available for viewing and inspection in Sydney at your convenience. Interested buyers are welcome to arrange a time to come aboard and experience the layout, craftsmanship, and quality of construction.
