Hallberg-Rassy 36

The Hallberg-Rassy 36 was an immensely popular model for the Swedish boat-building powerhouse. The MkI version of the design was in production between 1989 and 1994 with a total of 256 hulls leaving the yard. Proving a very capable passage maker the Hallberg-Rassy 36 MkI can be found in all corners of the globe.
