Origin Yachts presents: Hanse 312 “Prime Time”

Origin Yachts are pleased to offer “Prime Time”, a 2003 Hanse 312, a well-regarded cruising yacht designed by Judel/Vrolijk & Co, combining modern sailing performance with ease of handling. With two owners from new, she presents as a well-cared-for example of this popular model.
This example features the desirable shallow keel configuration with a draft of approximately 1.4m, making her particularly well suited to coastal cruising and access to shallower waters.
Featuring wheel steering at the helm and a self-tacking jib system, she is straightforward to handle, making her ideal for short-handed sailing. The sail plan includes a fully battened mainsail and furling genoa, offering versatility and ease of use.
She benefits from solar panels, supporting onboard systems and enhancing her suitability for extended cruising. Below deck, she offers a bright and practical interior layout with two cabins, a comfortable saloon, and a functional galley. The galley is equipped with a 2-burner hob, while a dedicated chart table/navigation station provides a practical space for passage planning. Webasto diesel heating ensures comfort throughout the seasons.
The yacht features a separate heads compartment with a large storage locker, accessible both from within the heads and via an external locker above, providing excellent practicality and additional storage space.
Powered by a Yanmar 2GM20 diesel engine (18HP) with saildrive, she offers smooth, efficient, and economical cruising.
Navigation is supported by a Raymarine C70 GPS/Plotter and Simrad autopilot, making passage-making simple and manageable.
