Friends! Today we have a super offer that I would really like to buy myself, but unfortunately, I have other plans for now (I’m going to Langkawi, already bought the tickets).

This is a 1999 Hallberg-Rassy 31 MkII with a Volvo Penta MD2020 engine for 64,000 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.42 meters
Width: 3.06 meters
Draft: 1.62 meters
Sleeps: 6
Kitchen (galley): yes
Toilet (head): yes

It may seem expensive at first, but in my opinion, this is one of the best offers of all the time I’ve been watching boats.

This is a modern HR with two separate cabins, with 2020 sails (brand new), the elastic band on the saildrive was replaced, all the kingstons were replaced in 2021.

The teak deck is in perfect condition, the interior was updated 3 years ago, Raymarine radar, Navtex, autopilot, new dingy (2020), AIS with data transmission via WiFi, ocean life raft, mooring equipment, etc.

This HR costs a little more than a typical mainstream of these years in this size (on average they cost about 50k euros), but usually Hallberg-Rassy boats cost 2 times more expensive.

Hallberg-Rassy is one of the best shipyards, which doesn’t try to save money during the production of boats, which makes bluewater class boats, they are as reliable as possible and are made with the highest quality.

The potential price for this boat is about 80-120k euros. The owners watched it very carefully.

This is exactly the case when a boat costs more than it is asked for, despite the price tag, which initially seems large.
