1983 Hans Christian 39 Pilothouse

$129,900.00

Description

This 1983 Hans Christian 39 Pilothouse stands out as a rare find—an extensively upgraded, true blue‑water cruiser prepared for self‑reliant passagemaking.

Solid stainless‑steel lifelines, a Schaefer in‑boom furling mainsail system, and fully updated 2018 standing rigging enhance both safety and ease of handling. A removable cutter stay adds versatility for all‑weather sail plans. Below decks, comfort and autonomy take center stage with a generator, air conditioning, and a 400W solar array that keeps onboard systems running with minimal engine time.

A bow thruster improves maneuverability in tight harbors, while AIS increases situational awareness offshore. The rugged aluminum‑hulled RIB on custom davits completes the package, giving you a dependable tender setup for remote anchorages.

This Hans Christian 39 Pilothouse is not just well‑maintained—it’s purpose‑built for sailors who want to cast off and keep going, wherever the horizon leads.
