Hallberg Rassy Rasmus 35 – 1979 - Sensibly priced at £39,950
The Rasmus 35 is often dubbed as the first production sailboat to come from Hallberg-Rassy, a brand name that has become one of the most respected and prestigious in the world of cruising yachts.
With a design from Sweden’s Olle Enderlein that was well ahead of its time in the late 1960s, the Rasmas 35 has enjoyed a large following with an incredible production run of 760 hulls spanning 12 years up to 1979.
With its full keel and a well-protected centre cockpit layout featuring a fixed windscreen, a trendsetting innovation in its day, the boat was designed for long distance cruising from the outset
Through the years the Rasmus 35 has proven herself with numerous and regular circumnavigations and continues to be a practical and economical choice for extended voyaging, able to swallow large amounts of gear and accommodating a decent crew count without being too cramped.
This example is hull number 674, one of the last boats produced in 1978. In 2015/2016 she had a major professional refit costing a huge amount of money, pretty much every on-board system was replaced.
