About the FINNROSE 37

Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Finnrose 37 is a classic British cruiser designed by Angus Primrose and built by Bellena Marine Ltd. in the UK, with production records indicating a build year of 1972. As a heavy-displacement vessel with a comfort ratio of 35.69, it represents a robust, traditional sailing experience from the early 1970s.

Best for:
This boat is best suited for coastal cruisers and those seeking a stable, comfortable passage-making vessel, given its high displacement of 16777.0 lb and moderate sail area-to-displacement ratio of 12.5.
Bluewater capability:
With a low capsize ratio of 1.71 and a displacement of 16777.0 lb, the Finnrose 37 is well-suited for bluewater cruising, offering excellent stability and seakeeping in heavy weather.
Comparables:
Comparable boats from this era include the Hallberg-Rassy 37 and the Hallberg-Rassy 36, as they share similar heavy-displacement characteristics, fin keels, and a focus on offshore comfort over pure speed.
