A well-maintained 1983 Hallberg-Rassy 352 cruiser has been listed for sale through Crosshaven Boatyard with an asking price of €59,500. Currently lying in Kilrush, Co Clare, Passade has been in the same ownership since 2007 and has benefited from significant upgrades, including the installation of a 2022 Vetus 42hp shaft-driven diesel engine with just 375 operating hours.

The 10.54-metre centre cockpit cruiser is one of 802 Hallberg-Rassy 352s built between 1978 and 1991. Designed by Christoph Rassy and Olle Enderlein, the model combines a walk-through layout with a spacious aft cabin and the renowned offshore cruising qualities for which the Swedish builder is known.

Interior Comfort — Passade's warm mahogany interior features a spacious saloon, L-shaped galley, navigation station, hot-air heating and seven-berth accommodation designed for comfortable cruisingInterior Comfort — Passade's warm mahogany interior features a spacious saloon, L-shaped galley, navigation station, hot-air heating and seven-berth accommodation designed for comfortable cruising.

Accommodation includes seven berths across two cabins, a large saloon, an L-shaped galley, a forward-facing navigation station and a generous aft cabin. The yacht is fitted with Eberspächer hot-air heating, hot water, teak and holly sole boards and extensive storage throughout.

The yacht has also undergone extensive mechanical and structural improvements. These include a new shaft, forestay, backstay, upper cap shrouds and guardrails in 2022, while all through-hull fittings and seacocks were replaced the same year. The original teak deck has been removed and refinished with KiwiGrip non-slip coating.

Her cruising inventory includes a fully battened slab-reefing mainsail, furling genoa, cruising chute, removable inner forestay with storm jib, Raymarine wind, speed and depth instruments, Raytheon autopilot, Garmin chartplotter, electric anchor windlass, dinghy davits, inflatable dinghy and four-person liferaft.

Crosshaven Boatyard broker John O'Carroll said: "Passade has been very well minded and has had a fair amount of upgrading in her ownership since 2007. She can easily be sailed single-handed and really is a nice example of a HR 352. Viewing is highly recommended."

The Hallberg-Rassy 352 remains one of the Swedish builder's most successful cruising yachts, combining solid construction, comfortable accommodation and proven offshore capability.
