new hanse 630e#035

Hello Panos

On the factory fitted extra deck wash on the 540 we only had a on off switch at the electrical board at the Nav table.

Be careful which sim card provider you use in your Ericson W25.   Some can providers sim cards will work only on data and not on voice.  In Australia we only have currently one sim card provider than has data and voice on the same card.

I have a thing about what I think are small winches on the Hanse yachts.  To me they all seem too small.  The sails on the 630 are a lot bigger than a 540 and the Amel.   With the boat the size of the 630 I personally would want to be able to handle the sails comfortably using manual winches in all conditions.  If it was my 630 I would be getting something like 72's for my 105% jib winches. 

For both the main and the 105% jib used manually 65 winches would mean that my daughter (19 years old) and partner would be able to use them manually without hurting themselves in most conditions.  If I had a choice I would have had 65 winches for both my main and secondary winches on my 540.  My partner hurt herself using the 54 winches on my main manually while racing in light air (less than 10 knots)

I have 65 winches for my 105% jib (69 m²) and you will have 54 electric winches for a 105% jib (96 m²).  I do not understand the logic in having undersized winches that are electric.

Listed below is a simple comparison of sail sizes I did as I was interested and I thought it might help you.
