1978 Hallberg - Rassy 352

802 hulls of the Hallberg-Rassy 352 were built between 1978 -1991. The 352 was from start a substantial sales success. This was the first time a designer had managed to combine, in a 35 foot boat, a walk through to the aft-cabin with spectacularly elegant lines. Hallberg-Rassy 352 offered large-boat characteristics at a moderate price. She features a comfortable interior with walk through to the aft cabin under deck, a big engine, combined with pleasant sailing qualities and nice lines.

The boat was built with a standard and a tall rig. In the beginning only standard rigs were sold and in the end almost only tall rigs. The tall rig is easily recognised on the double spreaders and the standard one on the single spreader rig. Boats with in mast furling automatically became the tall rig.

A very few Hallberg-Rassy 352 were built with hardtop. But not with the normal deck, but with a deeper cockpit, to create space under the hardtop, sacrificing the walk through under deck to the aft cabin. The aft cabin was then accessed only from the cockpit.
