HALLBERG-RASSY
A TRUE BLUWATER CLASSIC
This is a true blue water classic, built from 1982 - 1997 with 89 hulls completed. It is a superb boat for world wide cruising, with ample space for all possible equipment. Her clean flush deck is highly appreciated. In the beginning, she was only built as a ketch. In the end, almost only sloop rigs were ordered. If there was a sloop rig, there was a taller main mast. Mast position and chainplates remained the same on sloops and ketches. Furthermore, the genoa sheet winches were larger on the sloop configuration than on the ketch.
