| Long distance
cruising with great comfort
The Hallberg-Rassy 37 is a well-built long distance cruiser
with great comfort. The centre cockpit is very well protected
by the HR typical wind screen. There is a good aft deck,
making movement on deck easy. Her interior layout allows
for an airy aft cabin, well separated from the saloon, yet
easily accessible. The big engine room even allows for installation
of a power generator. Her tankage is generous for long range
cruising. The woodwork is crafted by experienced boat builders.
The rig is slightly fractional but still forward and aft
lower shrouds, combining stability and flexibility. The
spreaders do not disturb the mainsail when sailing downwind
over the oceans. As an option, it is possible to fly a masthead
gennaker from a removable bow sprit.
In the November 2006 issue of Cruising World magazine the
Hallberg-Rassy 37 is called a "Built-for-anything beauty"
Furthermore: "The boat is touted as a well-built long
distance cruiser. While others may talk the talk, this one
walks the walk. A test sail of the Hallberg-Rassy 37 proves
that with this model, the attention to detail is what makes
it a delight. The boat’s seakindly performance gives
the assurance that it can take you anywhere, and once you
get onboard, that's exactly where you'll want to go."
The Hallberg-Rassy 37 won "Boat of the Year 2006"
in the category Production Cruiser 37-39 ft in the January
2006 issue of Cruising World magazine from the USA.
