About YBC

The company YBC grew from it's inception in 2008 to become one of the most successful marine brokerage businesses in South East Asia. It's global client concepts were based upon the experience gained by Bob, and indeed by myself and other family members, over thousands of miles of full time sailing on the high seas and along the coasts of many countries. It's business creed was to provide a service that whilst thoroughly professional at all times was carried out with the understanding and personal attention to the needs of both buyers and sellers of marine craft. It had to be 'smooth sailing' for everybody.

Posted by YBC Brokerage & Charters On 18:11 No comments

Hans Christian 43T - AUD 128,000 
Location: Langkawi, Malaysia
 
Hans Christian 43T - AUD 128,000
Two owners from new, this beautiful Hans Christian began her present odyssey in Annapolis MD USA in 1997. She cruised the East coast of USA, Caribbean, South America, Panama, Pacific, New Zealand, Australia, Tasmania, Malaysia, Indian Ocean and East Africa. As with all Hans Christians, she has proved herself as a truly safe passagemaker. The design ethos of these yachts was to combine classic design with modern performance and stability and the owners of Ad Astra will attest to her comfort in heavy going, her comfort at sea ensuring fatigue free passages for two people.
The yacht had a major refit in 2007 which included a whole rig refurb, repainting masts, hull and topsides. The engine was also totally rebuilt at 7906 hours here in Langkawi.
Ad Astra is ready to go again and presents as a very well maintained yacht with exceptionally well cared for decks and brightwork.
