In 1451, it passed to his son Thhyge Lunge. Though his daughter Karen's marriage Jesper Krafse til Utterslevgård, Basnæs was transferred to members of a new noble family. Their son n Hans Jespersen Krafse, who served as lensmand of Kalundborg and Jorsør, was the next owner of the estate. His son, Jesper Hansen Krafse. who had inherited Basnæs in 1530, drowned at Gptland just six years later. He and his wife Kirstine Bølle had no children.
