The Hallberg-Rassy 50 is a modern cruising yacht designed by Germán Frers and built by Hallberg-Rassy (SWE), with production starting in 2020. While the exact hull count is not specified in the authoritative data, the model represents a significant evolution in the brand's lineup, featuring a fractional sloop rig and a displacement of 46297.0 lb.
- Best for:
- This vessel is ideally suited for serious coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize comfort and protection, as evidenced by the high prevalence of bow thruster additions (385 mentions) and extensive canvas installations (139 dodgers, 126 biminis). Its substantial displacement and comfort ratio of 34.46 make it a stable platform for long-range voyaging.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 46297.0 lb, a capsize ratio of 1.83, and a fin keel with a max draft of 7.71 ft, the boat is well-equipped for bluewater cruising, supported by owner reports of watermaker installations (20 mentions) and barrier coat applications (44 mentions).
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include other large, heavy-displacement European cruising yachts from the same era, such as the Beneteo Oceanis 50.1 or the Hanse 508, though the Hallberg-Rassy distinguishes itself with a higher build quality and a more conservative, seakindly hull form.
