About the HALLBERG-RASSY 35
See RASMUS 35 for more details.
Designed by Olle Enderlein and built by Hallberg-Rassy from 1967–1978, the Hallberg-Rassy 35 is a classic cruising sloop with 760 hulls produced. It is renowned for its robust construction and comfortable offshore capabilities, though owners frequently report structural concerns regarding the keel and deck.
- Best for:
- This boat is ideal for experienced coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize comfort and seaworthiness over high-performance racing. Its heavy displacement and proven design suit those seeking a reliable, long-term cruising platform.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 12125.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 1.74, the Hallberg-Rassy 35 is well-suited for bluewater cruising, offering excellent stability and seakeeping in heavy weather.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Hallberg-Rassy 32 and 38, which share similar design philosophies and build quality from the same era. Other contemporaries like the Tartan 36 or O'Day 36 offer similar displacement and cruising comfort but may lack the specific Rassy build reputation.
