33' Hans Christian HC 33 '83 "Courageous Lady"
It's time to make your cruising dreams a reality! This beautiful and seaworthy Hans Christian comes with all the gear including top-of-the-line B&G electronics, Simrad autopilot, Monitor windvane self-steering, stainless steel radar/solar arch, and more.
The solid Burma teak interior shows off the magnificent craftsmanship Hans Christian yachts are renowned for. Starting forward there is a large head compartment with separate shower stall, head, vanity with sink, mirrored cabinets and a hanging locker. There is an overhead hatch for light and ventilation and great access to the chain locker through a set of louvered doors.
Next aft is the spacious master cabin with a large Pullman-style double berth to port and double hanging locker on starboard. There is tons more storage space in drawers and compartments below the bunk.
The main cabin features an L-shaped settee wrapped around a sturdy teak and marble table on the port side, across from a long straight settee on starboard. The forward-facing navigation desk is tucked against the main bulkhead at the forward end.
Just to the port side of the companionway, the seagoing galley is a true work of art. The galley is complete with propane range/oven, built-in under counter refrigeration and double stainless steel sinks in an island dividing the galley from the main cabin. There are plenty of drawers and cabinets for all the galley supplies.
All the way aft and starboard of the companionway steps there is a separate guest cabin with a good-sized berth and its own hanging locker. The aft cabin would be an ideal sea-berth for the off-watch on longer passages, located just a couple of steps from the cockpit.
There are beautiful teak and holly soles throughout the boat, with custom snap-down marine-grade floor coverings protecting them.
