Sailpages Buyer's Take

Designed by Germán Frers and built by Hallberg-Rassy, the HR55 is a substantial cruising yacht produced between 2012 and 2017, with a total production run of 9 hulls. Owner reports highlight its robust construction and high-quality finish, though the small fleet size means individual maintenance histories vary significantly.

Best for:
This boat is ideal for serious bluewater cruisers and couples seeking a heavy-displacement, comfortable offshore passage maker, as evidenced by the high prevalence of watermakers, bow thrusters, and comprehensive canvas installations.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 57982.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 1.61, the HR55 exhibits excellent offshore stability and seakeeping, supported by owner reports of extensive self-sufficiency upgrades like watermakers and wind generators.
Comparables:
Comparable vessels include the Hallberg-Rassy 44 and 42, which share the same designer and builder philosophy, as well as the Nauticat 44 and Swan 44, which offer similar heavy-displacement cruising characteristics from the same era.
