Currently in St. Lucia, planning on heading to the Bahamas, but could deliver anywhere in Caribbean with accepted Purchase offer.
This beautiful sailboat is fully equipped and ready to cross oceans. I've equipped the boat during the last couple of years and in June 2022 and left Sweden to start my sail to the Caribbean.
Due to some unforeseen circumstances I'm forced to get back home sooner than planned and therefore I need to sell my beloved yacht.
She is a serious and comfortable long distance sailor and I have never felt nervous even in rough conditions off shore.
Hallberg Rassys most popular boat of all times. One in a museum in Sweden for the owner Kurt Börklund's achievements sailing the southern ocean and rounding the Cape Horn on the mission to become the first Scandinavian to sail nonstop single handed around the world.
