I am thinking of buying a 301 as I have read favourable reports on this site.
However I am concerned as to the light weather performance and am wondering
If fitting a sail rig from a 415 would improve it.
Has anyone done this ? And could you give me any tips as to how to do it

Why not adding the rig of the 630? Would improvbe much more the light wind performance LOL

I checked the calander too.
I would say that fit a mast from 415 to a 301 is a joke.
You canīt take all that weight on a 301, you would tip over in light winds.
You cant even have a mast from 320.

I had thought that I could fit an outrigger to improve stability, but that would make marina costs prohibitive
And going everywhere on a port tack difficult.
My latest plan is to fit a 125 hp engine that would gives entry of ballast in the right place
I also calculate that it should give me a cruising speed under power of 32 knots
This would mean that I could make a passage from Barmouth to Dublin in 3 hours saling or motoring
This would give me lots of Guinness dr,nuking time.

Yeah, If you look around there is possibly a keel off one of the old america's cup boats that you glue on the bottom, good luck!

The first scetches are done:

before relaunch




after relaunch


BTW. I also inflated the hull  a little bit. this way the 301 has much more space inside, but you only have to pay for the size of a Hanse 301 as you pay by length in most harbours....Wink

As far as I know the 301 is the only Hanse with a wing keel so with a few more horsepowers you could fly across the Irish Sea. Good luck!

I am suprised Holby has not told you how superfast a 301 is anyway, without turbo charging.
He does not normally miss a chance to extol the virtues of the 301l !!!
He must be slacking!!!

With some of the epoxy left over from any repairs you could extend the water line length to that of a 415 while your at it, but then you open your self up for higher marina cost.

I extended the waterline without extending the boat itself:Wink

Now it looks like a 2012 modelEmbarrassed
