2008 Hanse 470e

The 2008 Hanse 470e is a 47-foot cruiser-racer built on a fiberglass hull reinforced with epoxy construction over a galvanized steel subframe, designed for both ocean passages and competitive sailing. Powered by a 55 hp Yanmar diesel engine, the boat features a clean, modern deck layout with running rigging integrated into deck conduits. The sail plan includes a self-tacking jib as standard, with provision for upgrading to a larger configuration with overlapping genoa and asymmetrical sails.

Below deck, the interior is organized across three cabins and two heads in a light, open arrangement. The layout prioritizes comfort and livability for extended cruising while maintaining the performance characteristics expected of the 470e design.

The hull construction reflects Hanse's reinforced design philosophy, with extra structural strengthening intended to support long-distance ocean cruising. This particular example combines the versatility to serve equally as a weekend racer or extended-range cruising platform.
