Tradition and fresh ideas in a tasteful blend:
All new deck mould
New winch steps, which not only look great, it allows easier step into the cockpit and better height of the winch, giving improved accessibility
Rounder curving between the superstructure roof and superstructure side
The blue stripe around the cockpit will be in gelcoat and laminated into the deck
The frames of the deck hatches for the saloon and v cabin are lowered
The deck hatches of the aft cabin and the forward heads are lowered completely into the teak
The aft deck locker lids are moved more aft, being better positioned over the actual locker for better access
The cockpit teak is lowered into the level of the gelcoat, giving both better comfort, better looks and easier cleaning
The alcove in the cockpit is lowered into the coaming, no frame disturbs the comfort when sitting here
The seating comfort of the cockpit is improved by a better shape of the coaming, in line with the HR 54 and HR 342
Improved shape of the windshield coaming gives better looks
Larger locker lid for the gas bottles, allowing PK6 composite bottles
The entrance ladder has a completely new design, with rounded steps and rounded side panels, improving the looks and the comfort when being used in a seaway
New improved design on the handholds on the ceiling
Bookshelf alcoves also in the v cabin
Improved looks of the bookshelf alcoves
Lowered division between the seat and the vanity in the v cabin, which gives a more open and airy feel in this area
If armchairs are ordered, these are improved to both better looks and better comfort
The upper ends of the bulkheads between saloon-nav table and saloon-galley are lowered, giving a more open feel
In the galley, the fridge is improved to the same as used in the Hallberg-Rassy 48. That means built in evaporator, automatic light and three baskets in order to easier organize the small items
The bulkhead between the galley and the saloon is shortened a little towards the hullside
That makes it possible to increase the work top area in the galley a little, without sacrificing space in the cockpit locker or the saloon
If a deep freezer is ordered, this is improved to the same size as in the HR 48, with a basket, built in evaporator and automatic light
The fiddle around the vanity in the walk through to the aft cabin is improved to the same as used in the Hallberg-Rassy 48, meaning built in grabrail
New improved design of the carpet, where more of the beautiful teak and holly floor is showed at the ends
Improved comfort for the navigation table seat
Battery capacity is improved from 450 to 470 Ah
