2012 Hanse 495

The Hanse 495 is a 49-foot cruising sailboat built in 2012 with a fiberglass hull and diesel engine. Powered by a Volvo D2-75 with 54 horsepower, it cruises at approximately 9 knots. The boat has been used moderately, averaging three to five months of sailing per year, and has accumulated roughly 4,000 engine hours. Recent upgrades include new gel batteries, inverter, and battery charger, ensuring reliable onboard power management.

Accommodation comprises four cabins—three with double berths and one single berth for the skipper—along with three heads and a convertible saloon. The layout suits families or larger groups. Fresh water capacity is 650 litres, fuel capacity 300 litres, and waste water capacity 60 litres. The teak deck was refurbished in 2023, and the boat features a teak cockpit with cushions.

Equipment and systems are comprehensive. Electronics include radar, GPS, chart plotter, autopilot, VHF DSC radio, speedometer, anemometer, and compass. The interior has air conditioning, heating, hot water heater, marine refrigerator and freezer, and entertainment systems. Deck features include electric winches, a hydraulic winch, self-tacking jib system with spinnaker pole, steering wheel, and washdown shower with bathing ladder.

Recent work includes full generator refurbishment completed in 2023 and standing and running rigging renewal. Full scuba diving equipment with large cylinders is included. The boat was carefully maintained by a single owner and never chartered.
