Hallberg-Rassy: Sailing Yacht: HR 48   

The Hallberg-Rassy 48 is a comfortable long distance cruiser based on the same winning concept the predecessor HR 46 has, but with fifteen more years of Frers’ and Hallberg-Rassy’s experience incorporated. The HR 48 is an all-over new design, starting with a blank sheet of paper.

The hull is just 21 cm longer but offers more living space inside, thanks to better use of the hull length. The waterline is no less than 135 cm longer. The sailing performance is all over up to date. Hull, rig, rudder and keel profiles include Frers latest experience. With larger side windows, the interior is brighter. The aft cabin is wider and more generous. The berths are wider and longer and it is now possible to order a centre line berth with a seat on each side and a make up table to starboard. The aft cabin hatch is elegantly flush mounted. The cockpit is longer and the cockpit coaming is higher, giving improved protection. There is better seating comfort in the cockpit, due to the ergonomic angle of the backrest.

Boat of the Year

The Hallberg-Rassy 48 has been selected Boat of the Year in her category in the catalog Yacht Trends 2006.
