On Hanse 388, the dimensions explain part of the experience without telling the whole story. Its 11,40 m length and 3,90 m beam support comfortable shared time for a family that needs easy-to-share common areas, while the personality of this 2020 sailing yacht emerges under way. The stage from Sukosan to Iž gives enough time to discover it without haste.

Between Iž and Rava, the party can alternate cruising, swimming and time ashore without filling every hour. Mala Rava is available for those wanting to go farther, but a shorter route still gives a complete experience.

The combination of 11,40 m length, 3,90 m beam and 1,62-2,06 m depending on keel draft defines much of its character. There is space to enjoy on board, although berthing is easier when one person has lines and fenders ready before arrival.

The starting price is €2,500/week. A simple list of inclusions and extras, particularly fuel, cleaning, harbours and skipper, keeps the final day free from avoidable questions about payment.

With a flexible plan and a careful handover, Hanse 388 is enjoyable from the first manoeuvre. Iž, Rava and Mala Rava are possibilities; the measure of the trip is returning to Sukosan rested and eager to go again.

Three ways to cruise from Sukosan on Hanse 388 — an approach designed for a family that needs easy-to-share common areas · suited to a family that needs easy-to-share common areas

Three days on Hanse 388: from Sukosan to Iž via Rava — cruising towards Iž with room for Mala Rava

The middle day combines a comfortable passage to Iž with real time to enjoy the place. Rava is a second reference, not a compulsory target. Lunch on board, time ashore or another swim are chosen once everybody understands the boat and without pressure to complete a list.

For a short outing, Iž brings enough change of scenery without consuming the day in transfers. Hanse 388 remains at anchor for lunch, swimming and rest. The return begins in daylight and ends calmly, with luggage away from the passages.

    Hanse 388 had the space we wanted for talking, cooking and resting without feeling crowded.

Time aboard Hanse 388 between Iž, Rava and Mala Rava — an approach designed for a family that needs easy-to-share common areas

Before setting a course for Iž, a calm explanation turns the first manoeuvre into part of the holiday. Once Sukosan begins to fall astern, conversation gives way to quiet moments watching the horizon. Before committing to a night near Rava, shortening the stage often creates a fuller afternoon aboard. Before the party divides the cabins for the night, the morning plan is discussed without turning it into a duty.

As the harbour wakes around Hanse 388, the crew discusses the route and keeps one simple alternative. After the party has found a comfortable pace, the day finds a natural balance between cruising and rest. When the party wants more swimming and fewer miles, depth, swinging room and the morning exit matter more than reputation. With dinner ready and the anchorage checked, everybody puts belongings away and common areas feel open again.

The departure improves when everybody arrives in good time; lines, fenders and documents are located before the engine starts. In the opening miles on Hanse 388, the swimming stop is chosen for shelter and depth, not only photographs. If the wind changes during the afternoon, the simpler choice leaves time to cook, swim or go ashore. The final conversation of the day often begins on deck; water, batteries and weather are checked for an easy start.

The first morning in Sukosan works best without a rush; every guest finds a place without filling the cockpit with bags. During the passage towards Iž, the deck feels better when it is not a permanent corridor. While daylight still allows two shelters to be compared, an updated forecast makes a change of plan feel entirely normal. As evening settles over Hanse 388, the crew discovers that slow travel can still feel far-reaching.

Hanse 388 technical data — Sukosan, Iž and a route for a family that needs easy-to-share common areas

Food and refrigeration Water, breakfast and bulky products are best bought before leaving. The actual refrigerator space is checked during the Hanse 388 handover.
Arrival at the base The time and berth for Hanse 388 are confirmed before travel. Arriving early leaves room for ice, luggage and an unhurried handover.
Skipper and licence Bareboat charter requires documents and experience accepted by the operator. When there is doubt, a skipper stops manoeuvres from dominating the trip.
The group’s pace For two families who need clear pauses and an orderly deck, distance should match sleep, seasickness and interest in going ashore. The chart does not matter more than the people.
First route decision Iž is the initial reference, but Rava can replace it if the wind changes. Both options should be understood before departure.
Returning the boat The final leg leaves time for fuel, inventory and possible waiting. Reaching Sukosan early gives the trip a calm finish.

Hanse 388 equipment: what to locate during handover — an approach designed for a family that needs easy-to-share common areas

Handover is the best time to walk through Hanse 388 calmly and connect each item with a real situation. Nobody needs to memorise everything: several people should know where essential equipment is kept, how it is left after use and whom to call if something differs from the agreement.

  • Navigation and communication. «GPS plotter», «VHF radio» and «autopilot» are reviewed while the boat is secured. A second person repeats the basic sequence so the route does not depend on one guest. On the passage to Iž, these tools support the chart, observation and skipper’s decisions; they do not replace an outside watch.
  • Deck and anchoring. Before leaving Sukosan, the crew locates «anchor», «windlass» and «fenders». Lines and fenders remain accessible, while the person calling the berth agrees simple signals with everybody else. That preparation helps on arrival at Rava, especially in a busy harbour or crosswind.

With these references clear, Hanse 388 is easier to share. The crew can change the stage between Iž and Mala Rava without losing time to searches, and handover in Sukosan becomes more orderly.
