Insuring Yachtzentrum Greifswald GmbH & Co KG: cover and premium

Yachtzentrum Greifswald is the earlier name of the yard known today as HanseYachts. Michael Schmidt, winner of the 1985 Admiral's Cup, founded it in 1990 in Greifswald, right on the River Ryck. Its roots go further back, to the Boots- und Reparaturwerft Greifswald and before that to the Buchholz yard, which built in wood. In the early years refit and repair work came first. Series building began in 1993 with the Hanse 291, based on the Aphrodite 291 and on ideas from the designers Carl Baier and Bent Elgaard. The Hanse 331, derived from the Finngulf 33, followed. The company kept the Yachtzentrum Greifswald name until 2006.

Our model records hold 15 designs: twelve Hanse sailing yachts, one open sailing boat and two motorboats. The Hanse line runs from the 291 at 8.9 metres through the 292, 300, 301, 311, 312, 331, 341, 371, 401 and 411 to the Hanse 531 at 16.15 metres. The list also holds three boats under the Conley 21 name, a sailing boat of 6.05 metres plus the Sportfisher and Tukerboot motorboats. The years in our records start in 1986 with the Hanse 301, earlier than the yard history in the source. The last entries end in 2008, among them the 300, 312, 371, 411 and 531, so none reaches the most recent build years. Nine Hanse yachts fall between 8.9 and 11.3 metres.

Hanse yachts from these years now change hands as used cruisers, and age shows in predictable places. Check the joint between keel and hull and the keel bolts, especially on boats that have touched bottom in the shallow Baltic. Chainplates and their bulkhead attachments deserve a look for water ingress and stains. Standing rigging older than ten to fifteen years is usually due for renewal whatever it looks like. Teak decks, where fitted, wear thin over the years. The engine, the seals of saildrive or shaft and the age of the sails round off a sensible inspection. On the larger 401, 411 and 531, systems such as windlass, heating and electronics add to the list.
