What this video covers

The Hanse 360, a 36-foot cruiser with a 4-metre beam, demonstrates high form stability and predictable handling in 10- to 14-knot winds.0:39 During sea trials, the boat maintains 6.5 knots on a beat, though the standard Dacron sails lack the stiffness required for optimal performance in lighter air.0:47 The cockpit layout mimics that of a 50-foot vessel, featuring a central table that provides bracing when heeled.2:15 While the Jefa steering system offers precise feedback, the 40-size winches feel undersized for the boat's displacement.1:35 Interior highlights include a spacious forward cabin with an island berth and a well-appointed galley.4:22 However, the port-side aft cabin suffers from restricted headroom due to an adjacent storage locker.5:41 The vessel’s high freeboard contributes to a heavy, stable feel, though it sacrifices the agility typical of smaller cruisers.3:53 Base pricing starts at 2.7 million NOK, with well-equipped models reaching 3.5 million NOK due to currency fluctuations and optional upgrades like bow thrusters and performance sail inventories.7:03
