Hansa Sailing are seeking worldwide donations of second-hand or unused Hansa 2.3 and 303 boats for refurbishment and deployment in emerging sailing nations.
Any boats that are no longer used, require repair, or are in storage can be given a new purpose by providing accessible sailing opportunities in developing programs around the world. Donated boats will be refurbished by Hansa Sailing where necessary and distributed to support inclusive sailing and grassroots participation worldwide. Boat should include (where possible) hull, spars, keel, rudders and rudder boxes. Sails are not required.
Once refurbished, Hansa Sailing will arrange to donate the boats to startup programs around the world. Recognition of the original donor will be acknowledged. For more information, email info@hansaclass.org
