True blue Northern waters boat...the only hidden issue to check is some may have balsa core in the decks and roof.. check the through fixings areas for possible water ingress. RAN sailing shows you how to do it right ...
@@pa4tim The fasteners heads can start to tarnish but as long as they dont let water ingress then its cosmetic..they should be checked and sealed with epoxy.. If the cores started to blacken or is wet ..dry it out and remove any rot..then infill the voids with epoxy resin and a filler. It all depends on any seepage. Screwed teak decks are a pain if they are balsa cored... So a lot of folks remove them come time and glue a synthetic or teak down after sealing any skin holes. See sailing Atticus ... In their extensive restorations of Atticus 1
Nice! I could see me living and sailing aboard this baby. Very well designed with two cabins. The only thing that would improve this boat, is if it was a ketch. Just my thoughts.
It is a beautiful high quality boat, the fit and finish and materials of the interior our second to none... And the price is reasonable considering what you're getting..
It's definitely a beautiful boat. I only wish the design had placed a head closer to the stairs so you didn't have to walk the length of the boat from the wheel. I agree on the update of technology. Look at what Erik A. on JSNB has on the top of his mast, a camera with IR so he can see in complete darkness.
Am I the only one who can’t find the cost of the boat? I mean I could just go to yacht world or boat trader and hunt it down, but I like these tours. PA
@@virginiai.3632 we have done a ton of deferred maintenance. In the water finally yesterday. Probably just stay inside the Chesapeake through September.
Am I wrong or might there only be a couple more seasons in that teak deck? Hard to tell in a video like this. However, the speaker (apologies -terrible memory) seemed to struggle for a moment, in choosing how best to describe the condition. I 'get' the HR rep. However, whether the deck was perfect or not, I doubt I'd drop $220k on such an old boat. I 'd buy a 2010's ex charter 45 ft Bene First down in the islands for $50k and put $20k into her for solar, water maker, radar etc. And just resign myself to not doing Cape Horn and the Roaring 40's!! If I wanted to really go off grid, I'd simply buy an aluminium / steel boat and equip her accordingly. :)
I thought the same thing. You can see the decks are fastened with stainless under the bungs and they are rusting and making black stains. There's a few planks that look pretty tired and not the best quality. Days of good quarter sawn teak are over. Allow 50k to fix these days. Best to get rid of the teak and paint. Most people are over it. Looks great when new and young. They look like me now. Nearly dead.....
I messed up! Sorry, rather than risking a reupload not performing well, pictures of the engine can be seen here: www.yachtworld.com/yacht/2000-hallberg--rassy-39-8274129/
tbh, centre cockpits and ketch rig boats aren't my cup of tea, and only of marginal benefits if even those while Offshore. If a disabled Sailor, they are totally impractical, with lots of pretty vertical Companionway steps to climb up and down. A bit difficult to get a decent sized Solar Arch at the back of the Cockpit to, Plus, if seriously Cruising, you have to remember that you spend roughly 75% of your time aboard at Anchor. Then that Rear Cockpit in a Sailboat, becomes your Main Living Room, and a significantly important feature that you need to be able to stretch out in and move around in. Suddenly that Centre Cockpit has become an annoying liability. With a Decent Dodger/Sprayhood plus Cockpit sprayhood, you basically get the same benefits of a centre Cockpit, but aft Cockpit continues to be a room with Sun Protection and Rain protection as well, plus of course that not affected by shade arch for the Solar Panels. While all very doable with sub 40ft sailboats, to me, the sweet spot with equivalent ish ownership costs is a boat kength in the mid 40ft region. Providing Big enough and heavy enough, providing the below waterline Hull design isn't giving you a flat bottomed slammer that is punding you into concussion numbness with wave action. For Serious Cruising, to get reasonably close into shore places you want to go, a Shoal/Shallow Draft is also pretty much indispensable, To me, many Boatbuilders today are too focused on Racing Racing, and Racing Cruising Sailboat designs and theyvthink even an over 7ft Draft is Shallow Draft, compared to their Deep Draft versions. Thankfully some Builders understand that for Cruising, under a 6ft Draft matters, and every inch below 6ft Draft really matters. My personal limit for example is 5ft 8" and that's still too deep for many places, resulting in needing longer dinghy rides to Shore and back to the anchored boat. People like myself, due to disability, need fold down bathing platform Secure dinghy docking withbtie up Cleats, to get on and off the dinghy easy access, and from the bathing platform, easy access into the Cockpit, then when under way, the platform folds up and locks in place providing the need closed stern Cockpit security. Many able bodied people also benefit from the conveniences such creature comforts provide. So Hallberg-Rassy and similar for long term liveaboard and long distance Cruising use ? Pass, I'm looking elsewhere at Design Compramises that are weighted in favour of my requirements, and thankfully, there are a good number of suitable candidates around. Best Wishes and Fair Winds. Bob. 👍🏴🍻
Enjoyed the video but, it seemed like you were "rushing" through the walke thu...You didn't seem to be as relaxed as you normally are...Very nice Sailboat.
The interior is nicer than the exterior. I would hardly put this boat in the class of "beautiful" looking sailboats. It is missing the sleek graceful lines, pretty bow and stern and full keel that beautiful boats have.. It just looks like so many other mass produced boats of that time.

My favorite sailboat shown on your channel so far. I love HRs. Thanks for the content.
Absolutely amazing boat, I can easily see living aboard and just sailing anywhere that strikes your fancy.
Nice. You literally put a picture on the screen. 😂 great tour. I love this boat
The best boat ever
you showed a fluency I had not seen before. also, in the past you've come across as a wee bit aloof but here you were quite chilled 👍🏼
That interior is remarkably well preserved. Looks like she's been on the hard for a while. Side note, it's not a hallberg-ROSSY, it's RASSY
True blue Northern waters boat...the only hidden issue to check is some may have balsa core in the decks and roof.. check the through fixings areas for possible water ingress. RAN sailing shows you how to do it right ...
I am told those black spots around the screws that srews the teak to the deck are bad news. That is moisture that can enter the balsa deckcore

Very pretty boat.
I didn't see you moved to Canada. Welcome I hope you enjoy it here.
the interior is in startlingly new condition, contrasting strongly with slightly tired exteriors.

The key for the engine bay doors is usually kept in the top draw in the nav station behind you, please don’t attack it with a pair of pliers
The outside needs love👍 nice boat👍
Beautiful lady, enchanted !!!

It’s ours now!
Wow. Congrats! What's next for you?

This makes me unusually happy to hear. Aren't we all around these videos furthering our dreams? You did it!
And I incidentally read your comment and responded day of the launch. 🤔
A good boat, poor up keep. A bit of catch up and it will look and sail well some new gear would not go amiss.

I wonder why you’d prefer trimaran over one of these
A lovely lady she is
So how much

@@LearningtheLines No worries! This is small stuff. Love your content! And this _is_ a beautiful boat.
8:17 you call this a big head? On a 39 footer? Really?
That cockpit locker on starboard must go all the way down to the bilge. Seemed to me like some wasted space below deck.

I'm probably old enough to be your daddy, so I'll just say, haircut-shave, you aren't a damned pirate.
That time of the month for you?To each his own.
Do someone know, do you need a SRC to have a VHF marine radio in USA or Canada?
halbert-rassy? that's gonna cost you!
Seems crazy over priced for a 22 year old 39 foot boat. And it has the screwed on teak.
The interior is nicer than the exterior. I would hardly put this boat in the class of "beautiful" looking sailboats. It is missing the sleek graceful lines, pretty bow and stern and full keel that beautiful boats have.. It just looks like so many other mass produced boats of that time.
The price is a rip off.. wouldn't pay more than £120,000
An expensive boat that will keep you working on this that and everything else till you find cave and sell it to the next poor sucker 😂
much to expensive
Boring car house just put the boat on
