Hallberg-Rassy 64 Sailboats for Sale

Layouts on the Used Market

Owner three-cabin arrangements are the more common on the used market, though both layout families are available, and ex-charter examples are common. The builder offered twelve interior choices across five sections, and by mixing those options the yard could create no fewer than 72 possible layouts, so no two boats need be alike below. A typical owner layout places the galley on the port passage to the aft grand cabin, with a master cabin island berth and a forecabin V-berth, while the saloon's large windows give a near 280-degree view. The center-cockpit configuration leaves a bulkhead behind the nav seat for book and chart stowage.

Equipment and Common Upgrades

Commonly fitted equipment on these boats includes an inverter, furling main, bow thruster, electric winches, washing machine, bimini, swim platform, and chartplotter. For a buyer the meaningful clusters are power and energy — the standard 8 kW generator and inverter, with a bow thruster for docking — and sail handling, where electric winches and a furling main are part of the rig. The hydraulic fold-out bathing platform and the cockpit protection from soft or hard top complete the comfort picture. Navigation is centered on the chartplotter, and a washing machine plus bimini speak to liveaboard intent rather than race prep.

What to Inspect

The walk-in engine room is large and well sound-insulated, but its density of technical equipment means a thorough mechanical survey is essential. The builder installed two completely separated fresh water systems from tanks to piping, so verify both circuits pressurize and hold without cross-contamination. A second propeller was carried on board as backup, and a proper second ship's screw sits in the engine room; confirm both remain serviceable. The hull is joined to the deck by heavy internal glassing without bolts or adhesives, so inspect the interior glass line for any fracture or water staining. With flush-mounted skylights and hatches throughout, check every seal for leakage given the boat's CE category A ocean intent.

Availability and Buyer's Takeaway

These yachts are typically found in Italy. For a shopper, the short list is: confirm both fresh water systems isolate cleanly, survey the glassed hull-to-deck joint from inside, verify the backup propeller and engine-room access, and match the offered layout to your liveaboard plan given the 72 permutations. Inspect all flush hatches for watertightness before purchase.
