Vessel History:
**1st Owner:** A dentist from Long Beach, CA, was the original owner. The boat was primarily used for light float parades, entertaining, and a few trips to Catalina Island in California.
**2nd Owner:** Purchased during COVID, this owner undertook an extensive refit based on a 2021 survey. He intended to sail to Mexico, but unfortunately, his wife developed serious vertigo while sailing, prompting him to sell the boat to the current owner in January 2022. Andante was bought in Mazatlán.
**3rd & Current Owner:** This owner purchased the boat with plans to sail across the Pacific and spent two seasons in Mexico preparing for the journey that began in April 2024. After sailing 5,000 nautical miles, arrived in Fiji in November 2024. The current owners are now pursuing other plans and have made the difficult decision to sell their beloved vessel. The slip at Vuda Marina is paid until March 31,2025.
Nearly all the work from the survey was completed in Long Beach, CA, with many upgrades made in La Cruz, Mexico. The boat is turn-key and ready to sail.
If you are looking for a seaworthy, reliable, and well-known design, then this Hans Christian is perfect for you. Start your journey in the beautiful tropical islands of Fiji, as the sailing season approaches!
