The Hallberg Rassy 412 is sporty rigged with a relatively high mast and a self-tacking jib. The relatively long waterline, the 'open' aft cockpit and the width of the stern are revolutionary for the Scandinavian builder. This cruiser can compete with many performance cruisers, is more user-friendly, has a stable value and is a traditionally built, indestructible boat. The boat has been continuously professionally maintained, is very complete and is ready to start the sailing season immediately!

The starboard start looked like it would be a golden until it got light under the dock making it difficult to roll into a tack, leaving the door wide open for a late starter on port to race out to the right before rolling into a tack perfectly on the lay line. The speed on the way to the top mark was impressive and gave them a big lead at the first mark. The team at bottom up boats love sailboat racing of all shapes and sizes, I loved taking this footage and spending a few minutes on the dock talking to some life long sailors who now enjoy racing from the peer long past the days that their sea legs have deserted them.
