Engine

 At the center of the Hallberg-Rassy's systems is its engine room, the envy of any sailor who has had to contort himself around a hot engine. The engine room is well lit and offers plenty access to the engine, filters, pumps, cooling compressors, generator, Mastervolt battery chargers (three), Webasto heating units, hydraulics, master electrical switches, steering gear, water manifold, muffler and other systems. All heads and faucets run on freshwater. With the ability to carry approx. 425 gallons of diesel and approx. 412 gallons of water, the HR 62 is well suited for long offshore voyages or extended cruising along remote coastlines. A powerful engine is an important part of a long-distance cruiser. The Perkins Sabre 225 horsepower diesel with the Gori folding propeller positioned to overdrive, is reputed to deliver a speed of 7.5 knots at a fuel-efficient 1,500 rpms and at 2,200 rpms and pitched for regular ahead, she will reputedly do 10 knots.

The two geared three bladed folding propeller with overdrive provides maximum performance under power, an important point which cannot be emphasized enough for extended voyages.

Rigging

The HR 62 comes standard with a sloop rig and hydraulic cutter stay and running backstays stowed at the mast when not in use. The mast is relatively aft resulting in a large foretriangle and ample room for both forestays.

The HR 62 has a three-spreader aluminum mast and boom by Seldén and rod rigging and turnbuckles by Navtec. The mast is deck-stepped, supported by a solid compression post. The HR 62 comes standard with hydraulic in-mast furling that is easy to operate from the helm. In addition to the main, genoa and cutter staysail furling systems, the outhaul, vang and backstay tensioner are also hydraulic. On Sweetie 2 the cockpit winches are electric.

The main and genoa halyards are cable with detachable lines. The cables hook into special conduits on either side of the mast and can be adjusted with a winch handle. There are two manual winches at the mast for the staysail halyard, UPS halyard and rigging the poles.

It is obvious that a lot of thought went into the placement of fittings about the deck. From the helm, the main, genoa and staysail winches were all within an arm's reach and adjustable at the push of a button. All leads were fair, and you are never for want of another winch or line clutch. The genoa and staysail cars share the same track. The deck cleats are through bolted onto the toe rail.

Deck and Cockpit

The cockpit on the HR 62 is designed to protect the crew on offshore passages while also serving as an extension of the main saloon. This HR 62 comes with a solid windshield and soft top.  Instruments above the companionway are easy to read, and the Garmin multifunction display is tucked under the starboard side of the dodger. It is ABSOLUTEL MASSIVE! Placing it here instead of on the pedestal kept the cockpit open and maintained visibility from the helm. All hydraulics are operable from the helm. All sail controls are on the pedestal, as are the controls for the two independent autopilots, windlass, emergency bilge pump, engine control panel and VHF radio.

Handholds run the length of the cabin top and pad eyes to clip harnesses into abound. The lazarette and forepeak are huge and will accept lines, outboard fuel and miscellaneous items.

Great attention has been paid to easy and safe anchoring. Anchor winch motor is placed under deck for protection against water. The anchor chain falls smoothly into the big chain locker, which drains overboard. . Anchor can be controlled both at the windlass and from the steering pedestal. The over-sized anchor and chain add a nice finishing touch to Sweetie 2’s deck appearance.

Construction Details

All Hallberg-Rassys’ are constructed to undertake the rigors of offshore sailing and long-distance cruising. The decks and hulls are hand-laid GRP with a Divinycell closed cell foam core above the waterline for sound and temperature insulation. The hull utilizes isophthalic gelcoat and polyester for increased resistance to water absorption. Below the waterline, the hull is solid laminate. A structural grid is fiber glassed into the bilges, which increases stiffness and distributes the loads of the mast and the keel.

Deck, coach roof, handrails and seats are all solid teak. 15 windows (14 open) 8 deck hatches and 7 Dorade vents. Scuppers drain under the waterline to keep the hull clean.

The insides of the bilges are ground smooth and painted, preventing sharp edges that will cut hands or damage gear stored within. All lockers have false floors and removable backs so that every section of the hull can be accessed. The rudder is semi-balanced, and its skeleton has a solid 100-millimeter stainless steel shaft and is suspended by three roller bearings.

The deck-to-hull joint is fabricated of overlapping laminate, a method that has proven superior in respects to structural soundness and preventing water ingress. The stanchions are mounted on solid stainless-steel rods that rise through the toe rail but do not penetrate the underside, thus eliminating potential leaking. Bulkheads are fiber-glassed to the hull and deck. The engine, generator and all tanks are installed after the interior and deck are finished to ensure that they can be removed if necessary.

Woodwork and joinery are inherently difficult due to a boat's movement. Because joints creak and shift underway, top-end boatbuilders construct wood laminates that they mold into shape. Hallberg-Rassys’ contain few sharp angles and joints. All fiddles and door frames are molded laminates with rounded corners, as is the molded division in the V-berth. In the head and the laundry room, teak doors have floating panels so they won't warp as the wood expands and contracts with moisture.

Designers Comments - Germán Frers

"As the top of the line of high-quality offshore cruising boats produced by this world renowned builder, the Hallberg-Rassy 62 represents years of experience and a synergy of efforts on the part of Hallberg-Rassy and our design office to produce the best possible yacht of its kind.

The high performance, well balanced, strong hull of moderate draft is matched by an efficient and easy to handle sail plan. The areas reserved for leisure on deck are very generous and the interior has plenty of natural light and ventilation. A new owner will immediately be able to appreciate Hallberg-Rassy’s know-how building and fitting out their yachts, as much as their design and performance in all conditions.” Germán Frers

 

 

Blue-Water Magazine Quotes

Some Comments from Erin Myers at Bluewater Magazine

When the wind was steady at 25 knots, we easily made better than 200-mile days, as did other boats in our size range. However, we found that when the winds and seas built, we were able to make 220-mile days while our fellow rally participants dropped down to 180-mile days. The HR 62 out shone the rest of the fleet in heavy weather. She maintained her performance and sea kindly motion, keeping the crew well rested and thus alert. It was quiet down below. You could hear the water rushing by the hull, but there was little creaking. We found that we could keep the genoa up until 30 knots, above which the cutter staysail was better suited.

Despite the fact that the boat is built as a top-of-the-range yacht, she can virtually be sailed single handed. Push buttons located at the steering pedestal allow you to raise and lower the anchor or set and sheet the sails. "Push button sailing" is no longer just a symbolic expression!
