About Effortless

<h3>EFFORTLESS, 2014 Hanse 385 | Honolulu, Hawaii</h3><p>A 37-footer that sails like a much bigger boat and single-hands like a much smaller one. <em>Effortless</em> is a two-cabin 2014 Hanse 385 lying in Honolulu, set up so one person can leave the slip, work the channel, and come home without ever leaving the wheel.</p><p><br></p><h4>Why she's easy to sail</h4><ul><li><strong>Self-tacking jib</strong>, tack with one hand on the wheel, no sheet to grind</li><li><strong>Twin electric winches at the helm</strong>, sheets and halyards handled from where you steer</li><li><strong>Twin wheels</strong> with a clear, open cockpit between them</li></ul><p>The Hanse formula shows here. A self-tacking headsail and powered winches turn what is normally a two-person job into a single motion, which is what makes a boat like this get used on a Tuesday afternoon rather than only on weekends with crew.</p><h4>On deck</h4><ul><li>Folding cockpit tables</li><li>Electric anchor windlass with approximately 50 m of chain</li><li><strong>B&amp;G chartplotter</strong> at the helm with AIS receiver</li><li>Beam carried well aft, a genuinely wide, usable cockpit</li></ul><h4>Power and systems</h4><ul><li><strong>Volvo Penta diesel, 500 hours</strong>, owner reports no known issues</li><li><strong>200W solar</strong></li><li><strong>AGM house batteries</strong> replaced within the last two years</li><li>Upgraded <strong>Xantrex battery monitor</strong></li><li>Stereo in like-new condition</li></ul><p>Between the solar and the house bank, she holds her own at anchor.</p><h4>Below decks</h4><ul><li><strong>2 cabins, 1 head</strong>, a private forward cabin and an aft double</li><li>Warm joinery throughout, in good order</li><li>Full galley with double stainless sink, gimbaled stove and refrigeration</li><li>Nav station to port with the main electrical panel</li><li>Fiberglass hull with balsa core</li></ul><p>The saloon is the surprise on this model, the beam is carried far enough forward that the settee and table seat a real dinner party, and the overhead hatches and hull ports keep it bright rather than cave-like.</p><h4>Sail inventory</h4><ul><li><strong>New Rolly Tasker mainsail</strong></li><li>Working jib (original, with new sunbrella)</li><li><strong>Gennaker with sock</strong></li><li><strong>Storm jib</strong></li><li>Main sheet, jib sheet and main halyard all replaced in 2026</li></ul><h4>Recent work</h4><ul><li><strong>December 2025 haul-out</strong>, bottom paint, zincs, and Prop Speed</li></ul><p><em>Effortless</em> is ready for you to go sailing: hauled and painted within the year, a fresh main, a deep secondary inventory, and the systems a Hawaii owner actually needs.
