Overview

Introducing the Hallberg-Rassy 342, a beautifully maintained yacht currently available for sale under the name BLUE LADY. This exceptional vessel has been lovingly cared for by her second owners and has been cruising along the stunning South Coast of the UK since 2016. Additionally, BLUE LADY enjoyed an extended stay in the picturesque waters of Western France during 2019 and 2020, showcasing her versatility and appeal for coastal adventures.

The Hallberg-Rassy 342 is renowned for its exciting sailing capabilities and engaging performance across all points of sail. It is designed to be easily managed by a small crew or couple, making it an ideal choice for both novice sailors and experienced mariners alike. The yacht features a conventional slab reefing mainsail that is controlled conveniently from the cockpit, where a safe and protected helms position is provided by the optional wheel steering configuration. For those gentle breezes and long downwind legs, BLUE LADY is equipped with an Asymmetric spinnaker and a removable bowsprit, enhancing her performance and versatility on the water.

Below decks, BLUE LADY exudes a bright and airy atmosphere, having undergone a stunning re-upholstery in 2019 alongside new carpets installed in 2020. This results in a comfortable and practical living space that can easily accommodate four people, with the option for additional berths in the saloon, bringing the total capacity to six. Whether you're planning a weekend getaway or an extended voyage, this yacht offers the perfect blend of comfort and functionality.

Currently lying ashore at Hamble Point Marina, BLUE LADY is ready for your visit and inspection. It is important to note that she is a UK VAT paid yacht, and any importation into the EEA/EU may attract further taxes or duties.
