Vie le Reve - Hanse 575
About This Yacht
Vie le Reve represents the pinnacle of German engineering meeting racing pedigree—a Hanse 575 that transcends category definitions. With her full carbon fiber rig, race-grade condition, and meticulous upgrades including lithium battery systems, this yacht delivers exhilarating performance whether thundering around the racecourse or embarking on ocean passages, all while offering the refined comfort and elegance befitting a true gentleman's yacht.
Designed by the legendary Judel Vrolijk partnership—the minds behind multiple TP52 champions—the Hanse 575 combines racing DNA with cruising sophistication in a way few production yachts achieve. Vie le Reve exemplifies this duality perfectly: she's been maintained to race-grade standards yet has never been seriously campaigned, meaning you inherit competition-level functionality and quality without the compromises of a hard-sailed regatta boat. The flush teak decks remain uncluttered and pristine, while the giant cockpit provides a commanding helm position and generous space for entertaining guests in style.
Step below and discover an interior executed on a grand scale, where luxurious finishes marry modern design with timeless materials. Rich mahogany joinery and supple leather accents create warmth throughout the expansive saloon, while the thoughtful layout ensures both privacy and sociability. This is a yacht that impresses whether you're hosting friends for a leisurely bay sail or preparing for an offshore passage—the accommodations provide genuine comfort without sacrificing the performance-oriented efficiency that defines the breed.
The current owners' discerning approach to ownership is evident throughout, from the advanced lithium battery system to the self-tacking jib with all lines led to power winches—single-handed sailing becomes genuinely effortless. The T-keel configuration delivers exceptional performance and stability, while the B&G H5000 electronics suite provides the data and functionality serious sailors demand. The integrated dinghy garage, sized for a Williams Jet Tender TurboJet 285, adds a finishing touch of practicality and elegance. Currently berthed in Sausalito Harbor with potential slip availability, Vie le Reve awaits an owner who appreciates the rare combination of racing capability, cruising comfort, and meticulous care.
Machinery & Systems Propulsion comes from a reliable 2013 Volvo D3 110hp diesel engine with just 892 hours, driving a three-blade bronze propeller through a direct-drive transmission. The modest hours reflect careful use and proper maintenance protocols throughout her life. The engine room is professionally organized with excellent access for routine servicing. A comprehensive electrical system has been significantly upgraded with a modern lithium battery bank, providing superior energy density, faster charging, and longer lifespan compared to traditional lead-acid systems—a substantial investment that transforms onboard power management. Shore power integration, battery monitoring, and charging systems have been optimized to support extended cruising or time at anchor. The yacht includes diesel tankage appropriate for her size, ensuring adequate range for coastal passages. Additional systems include pressurized hot and cold water, electric heads, and a well-engineered plumbing layout throughout.
Navigation & Electronics The electronics package centers on a sophisticated B&G H5000 system—professional-grade instrumentation that provides the depth of data and functionality demanded by serious racing sailors while remaining intuitive for cruising applications. This comprehensive suite delivers real-time performance analytics, advanced wind and routing calculations, and integrated autopilot control. Full navigation capabilities include modern chartplotters with updated cartography, radar for all-weather awareness, and AIS for traffic monitoring and collision avoidance. VHF radio ensures reliable communication, while depth, speed, and wind instruments provide continuous environmental feedback. The integration of all systems through the B&G network creates a seamless information flow that genuinely enhances both racing performance and passage-making confidence. Entertainment systems throughout the yacht keep crew connected and comfortable. The electronics represent a significant value-add, offering capabilities typically found on much larger or dedicated racing platforms.
Accommodations The interior showcases Hanse's reputation for maximizing volume and livability within a performance hull. The grand-scale saloon features a large dinette to port with luxurious seating upholstered in quality fabrics, complemented by rich mahogany joinery and leather accents that create sophisticated warmth. Natural light floods through large hull ports and deck hatches, while LED lighting provides ambiance after dark. The navigation station is properly equipped for serious passage-making. The galley offers excellent functionality with a quality three-burner stove and oven, generous refrigeration, deep double sinks, and abundant counter space finished in durable Corian or similar materials. Storage throughout is exceptional, with deep lockers and clever compartmentalization. The accommodation plan provides three spacious cabins sleeping six comfortably, with a luxurious owner's suite forward featuring a centerline island berth, hanging lockers, and ensuite head with separate shower stall. Two well-appointed guest cabins aft share a second head, ensuring privacy and comfort for extended cruising or entertaining guests. Quality mattresses, bedding storage, and ventilation in each cabin demonstrate attention to liveaboard comfort.
Deck & Exterior The deck layout epitomizes Hanse's philosophy of uncluttered functionality and safety. Flush teak decks run the full length, providing secure footing and classic aesthetics without the trip hazards of traditional raised cabintops. The giant cockpit dominates the aft deck, offering twin helms with excellent visibility, deep cockpit seating that accommodates a crowd, and fold-down swim platforms for easy water access. All sail controls are led aft to power winches within easy reach of the helm, with the self-tacking jib system enabling true single-handed sailing—sheets automatically transfer during tacks without crew intervention. The German mainsheet system keeps the cockpit clear while providing excellent control. The foredeck features a proper anchor locker with electric windlass, while wide side decks with substantial toerails ensure safe passage forward. A highlight of the deck arrangement is the dedicated dinghy garage integrated into the transom, sized specifically for a Williams Jet Tender TurboJet 285 (available separately). This clever feature keeps the tender secure, protected, and out of sight until needed, eliminating the compromises of davits or deck storage. Full canvas includes bimini, dodger, and cockpit enclosures for all-weather comfort. The carbon fiber rig towers overhead, combining light weight with exceptional stiffness for superior performance.
