Hallberg Overview - Rassy 31
NEW ENGINE FITTED APRIL 2023 (150 HOURS)
Calidris, a Hallberg-Rassy 31 for sale here at Fox’s Yachts, is in genuinely exceptional order – designed by Germán Frers and built in Sweden, this (just over) 30ft boat is one of the most respected small cruisers of her era, earning a devoted following for her build quality and seakeeping ability. This 2000 model is presented to the highest standard both on deck and below, and she’s ready to go – there’s nothing left to do but choose your destination.
Deck
Everything on deck is built around making shorthanded sailing genuinely easy, not just possible. Powered winches and a powered windlass take the effort out of hoisting sail and setting the anchor, so passages feel less like hard work and more like sailing – a real plus if you’re used to a crew and want to keep enjoying the boat without one. Every line runs aft to the cockpit too, so you can reef, trim and manage ground tackle without leaving the helm.
The fresh sprayhood and Hallberg-Rassy’s signature fixed screen keep the cockpit dry and sheltered, stretching your sailing season into the shoulder months when a lot of boats stay tied up. And with the teak deck in good order, you’re spared one of the costlier jobs that can catch others out.
- Powered winches – less effort under sail
- Powered windlass – quick, easy anchoring
- Fresh sprayhood – keeps the cockpit dry and sheltered
- Fixed Hallberg-Rassy screen – forward visibility and weather protection
- All lines led aft to the cockpit – manage everything from the helm
- Teak deck in good order – no costly replacement to budget for
Cabin
Below deck, this Hallberg-Rassy 31 for sale continues to impress – she’s extremely well laid out for her size. Two separate double cabins, one forward and one aft, sit alongside a full-size saloon, an ample galley and a dedicated chart table, delivering the kind of comfort you’d expect from a considerably larger yacht. The joinery shows no signs of wear and the sole boards are bright and fresh, a clear reflection of the care the current owner has invested throughout.
Sails & Spars
The standing rigging was replaced in 2011 and has been professionally inspected every year under current ownership. The running rigging is in like-new condition, and a new genoa was fitted in 2025 – so Calidris is ready to sail without delay.
Electrical & Electronics
An updated chartplotter keeps navigation straightforward, whether you’re pottering along the coast or planning something further afield.
Machinery
In April 2023, Fox’s Marina carried out a comprehensive repower, fitting a new Volvo diesel engine along with a new sail drive gaiter, folding propeller and rope cutter. With just 150 hours logged since, the new owner inherits what is effectively a fresh installation – one of the most reassuring things you can say about any used yacht, and real peace of mind for anyone planning to put some miles under the keel.
