As the successor of the Hallberg-Rassy 34 the HR342 had big shoes to fill, but she was soon established at the quality end of the fast, cruiser sector thanks to her modern hull shape designed by Germán Frers. Speed is important but beneath her sporty exterior, the HR342 is a true Hallberg-Rassy; a safe, comfortable, family cruising yacht.
FISKARNA is a great example of a Hallberg-Rassy 342 she was first delivered to a German owner who paid VAT on import into Germany he sailed her lightly in the season and kept her undercover in the winter. her current owners paid the VAT again on import into the UK so FISKARNA is sold as a UK VAT paid yacht but her current owners could be entitled to returned goods relief if they took her back to the EU which may be a benefit to a European buyer.
FISKARNA's current owners updated her inventory on deck and at the chart table, her inventory features in-mast furling and wheel steering. FISKARNA is now for sale as a well-presented, lightly used yacht at Hamble Point Marina, call Transworld Yachts for an appointment to view.

The following comments from Europe’s largest sailing magazine, Yacht after testing the Hallberg-Rassy 342:
"Frers has given this bestseller more comfort and more elegant lines. The sailing performance is excellent, even in light airs, but her speed increases effortlessly in response to every increase in wind strength. She reacts instantly to steering commands, but not nervously. From the moment you set sail she edicts a feeling of confidence, a feeling that is retained even in a freshening wind. The hull and deck are completely laminated and cast together with a polyester mixture, the resulting rigidity to the hull gives the boat a more comfortable ride in heavy seas.
The high standard of the build quality is valid throughout the whole build process and is evident even to a non-expert. It is not only the precisely fitted interior joinery, the dimensions and solid feel of the khaya mahogany with its varnished finish which is smooth to the touch. Even in those areas hidden from view Hallberg-Rassy is leading its competitors. For example the heating hoses are double, in order to minimize loss of heat. The pressure water pump is not just fitted anywhere as an afterthought but in rubber in the already insulated engine room so that noise levels are reduced. All these things are evidence of how determined Hallberg-Rassy are to continually move the limits in an effort to provide their clients with the ideal cruising yacht.
It is easy to fall in love with the 342 just because she has so many better details than other yachts in this segment of the industry. But it is not just the attention to detail, it is the great overall concept where she scores points. At 10.32 x 3.42 m (33’10” x 11’3”) she has the best layout on the market, ideal for a crew of four. This new model has what it takes to become a class leader. Part of the explanation is that there is hardly any direct competition for this yacht. But even if the competition were keener, the market tougher, the Hallberg-Rassy 342 would still hold her exceptional position safely. We have rarely sailed a yacht that is so carefully evaluated."
