The Next Generation of Sailing Yachts
The Hanse 360 represents the evolution of modern performance cruising yachts – delivering confident sailing, intuitive handling and remarkable interior volume in a highly efficient 36ft platform.
Designed in Germany and refined by world-renowned naval architects Berret-Racoupeau, the Hanse 360 blends performance, stability and ease-of-use into a yacht perfectly suited to Australian waters. Whether sailing Sydney Harbour, Pittwater, Port Phillip, the Whitsundays or undertaking longer coastal passages, the Hanse 360 offers the balance Australian sailors demand.
The 360 is an exceptional entry into serious yacht ownership.

WHY THE HANSE 360 STANDS OUT
Compared to competitors such as the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349, Beneteau Oceanis 34.1 and Bavaria C38, the Hanse 360 delivers superior build precision, intelligent systems integration and a more refined sailing experience.
Hanse’s engineering philosophy emphasises:
- Integrated structural grid systems for durability
- Higher-grade hardware and deck ergonomics
- Clean sail plans focused on balance and efficiency
- Reduced crew workload through simplified handling systems
Where some designs chase interior volume at the expense of sailing feel, the Hanse 360 achieves genuine living comfort without compromising performance.
