The high freeboard and low superstructure design gives you good volume below and a large deck.
Olle Enderlein has designed a fine yacht, perfectly balanced under all conditions. With a long keel and separate skeg and rudder, he has combined the traditional long keel and the modern fin keel types. The hull is in solid fiberglass.
The Hallberg-Rassy 38 is built at a yard dedicated to building high quality cruising sailboats. She is built by men and women with generations of boat building in their blood and who have long lived with the sea an the Swedish west coast. All the boats are a masterpiece in mahogany and teak. The finish is the trademark of traditional craftsmanship.
