1987 Hallberg-Rassy 42E – EUR 219,000 Why this is not just another Hallberg-Rassy 42E Over the past six years, more than **300 individual improvements** have been carried out with one clear goal: to create the finest, most reliable and best-equipped Hallberg-Rassy 42E currently available. Extensive information, photos and videos of all work carried out can be found at www.sailingtranquilo.com. Instead of buying a yacht and then spending the next two years well over €100,000 replacing standing rigging, the teak deck, portlights, hatches, electronics, batteries, plumbing, upholstery, underwater hull protection and countless other systems, you can simply step aboard and cast off. For the past several years, Tranquilo has been based on the Greek island of Samos, one of the Mediterranean's most beautiful cruising areas. Set a course for your next secluded bay or charming island village and enjoy crystal-clear waters, reliable sunshine, welcoming people, excellent food and remarkably affordable cruising. The HR42E is a very different yacht from the later Germán Frers-designed HR42F. Thanks to her flush-deck design, she offers significantly more interior volume and a much more spacious living environment below deck, making her an exceptional yacht for long-distance cruising and extended stays aboard. Naturally, this is not a new yacht. However, virtually every major system that owners of similar yachts eventually need to replace has already been renewed or extensively upgraded during our ownership. Replacing the 33 m², 12 mm teak deck alone would cost approximately €60,000 today. When combined with the many other improvements listed on our website, it becomes clear that buying a less expensive HR42E and bringing her to this standard would require a very substantial investment in both time and money. Tranquilo is ready to leave the dock today. Whether your dream is cruising the Mediterranean, crossing the Atlantic, or simply owning one of the finest Hallberg-Rassy 42Es available, she is fully prepared for many years of safe, comfortable and carefree sailing.
