About the HALLBERG-RASSY 44
GRT: 21.10 NRT: 18.99
Designed by Germán Frers and built by Hallberg-Rassy, the HR44 is a modern cruising sloop with production starting in 2016. While the exact hull count is not specified in the source data, the vessel is characterized by its fractional sloop rig and substantial displacement of 29321.0 lb.
- Best for:
- This boat suits serious coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize comfort and protection, as evidenced by the high prevalence of dodgers, biminis, and watermakers in owner reports.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 29321.0 lb, a capsize ratio of 1.79, and a comfort ratio of 31.44, the HR44 is well-suited for bluewater passages, though owners frequently upgrade with bow thrusters and wind generators for self-sufficiency.
- Comparables:
- Comparable to other modern European cruiser-racers like the Beneteau Oceanis 46.1 or Dufour 460, the HR44 distinguishes itself with a heavier displacement and a focus on traditional build quality over pure speed.
