Hallberg-Rassy 45 – Exceptionally Well-Equipped Bluewater Centre Cockpit Cruiser
New engine - 2025
Designed by German Frers and built by Hallberg-Rassy of Sweden, the Hallberg-Rassy 45 is widely regarded as one of the finest centre cockpit cruising yachts of her generation. Strong, safe and beautifully balanced, she offers excellent sailing performance combined with outstanding comfort for long-distance cruising.
This 1992 example stands out due to substantial recent investment, careful ownership and a clear focus on offshore reliability. She is now in her third ownership since new, having previously been in one ownership for approximately 25 years, and is presented in one of the best interior conditions seen for her age.
The yacht features the preferred three-cabin layout, a secure centre cockpit, and the classic Hallberg-Rassy mahogany interior. She has been upgraded with the intention of extended ocean cruising, including preparation for the South Pacific, with no short-term or cosmetic solutions adopted.
Offered for sale only due to a change in family circumstances.

Broker’s Remarks
This Hallberg-Rassy 45 is a seriously prepared offshore cruising yacht, benefitting from major mechanical, rigging, electrical and navigation upgrades. She was refitted with the intention of extended ocean cruising, with reliability, redundancy and safety firmly in mind.
A proven Frers design, capable upwind and easily handled short-handed, she offers a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey bluewater cruiser of outstanding pedigree.
Early inspection is highly recommended.
