Hans Christian 41T Molokai Just Listed

$229,000 NZD or EQUIVALENT IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS
The Hans Christian 41T Molokai is widely regarded as one of the finest blue-water cruising yachts ever built, combining traditional double-ended beauty with exceptional offshore capability. Designed by Scott Sprague, the 41T features a heavy-displacement hull, cutter rig, skeg-hung rudder, and modified full-keel configuration that delivers remarkable directional stability and a comfortable motion at sea. Under sail, she is not designed to be a lightweight racer, but rather a powerful passage-maker that settles into her stride as the breeze builds. Her substantial displacement and high comfort ratio give her a steady, predictable motion in ocean swells, reducing crew fatigue on long passages while inspiring confidence in challenging offshore conditions.
What truly sets the Molokai apart is her ability to look after her crew when conditions deteriorate. The versatile cutter rig allows sail area to be reduced progressively while maintaining excellent balance, making heavy-weather sailing manageable for a cruising couple. Owners frequently describe the yacht as tracking "like a freight train, " holding her course with minimal helm input and exhibiting a dry, sea-kindly ride. The canoe stern and robust construction contribute to her reputation for handling following seas with confidence, while her powerful hull carries momentum through rough water without being easily stopped by waves. Although she may give away speed to modern lightweight cruisers in light airs, the Hans Christian 41T Molokai rewards patient sailors with a reassuring blend of strength, comfort, and ocean-crossing reliability that has earned her a legendary status among serious offshore cruisers
