- Enjoy the video as we continue our handover of the Hallberg Rassy 44 on deck and complete our first sail in the fjord outside of Ellös Sweden. This video includes time with Martin, the master rigger at Hallberg Rassy. We become familiar with the in mast furling and electric furling headsail as well as all the lines. We discuss back up systems if these electrical systems fail. Our sail through the fjords is glorious and leads me to sail to Norway over the weekend(next video) while Nicole prepares meals for our upcoming 2600 NM sail to Mallorca.
The boat is absolutely stunning ❤. Those sails are beautiful, and the teak immaculate. She sails like a dream (30 degrees off the wind 😳). Congratulations !!!
Thanks DC!
This was pretty awesome! Congratulations on the new boat and the first sail -- she's a beauty!
Thank you!! 😊
Hardtop nice in stormy weather and in tropics for shade, verygood choice😊
Agree! Hardtop is a game changer. Only downside is it’s a bit of a squeeze to get back into the cockpit in front of the pedestal.
Congrats on the new boat, she is a beauty😍
Thank you 😊
Wow that sailed so well up that channel. Very impressive.
Amazing boat, happy captain. Congrat. 🤗
Many thanks!!
She’s a beautiful boat - congrats 🙌 Was good to see Ludvig working happily in this sea trial, he’s my man too - I am waiting patiently in the queue for my 340 to be completed next year. All the best for your adventures getting over to the Meds and I’m sure more to come.
@@meerec I can’t say enough nice things about Ludvig . He is such a sincerely, wonderful guy. If you look at his face during the first sail, he was as excited as I was! Especially when we cleared those rocks!
Awesome buddy! We miss you back in Pa. Been following you on the Garmin. So happy for you. Enjoy the rest of the trip.
Thanks Eric! It’s been quite a trip!!
Excellent. Would've liked to have seen the operation of the push button sailing.
That is coming!

The thing about Sweden and most of Europe is almost everyone speaks English. I have to say though Sweden had the nicest people I have ever encountered traveling abroad. Denmark too.
I agree, we loved Sweden.
Wow, I just Fall in love. What the Beautiful Boot it is.❤🥰🥰🥰
I agree!! Thank you to HR!
I’m sailing the opposite way from the Med up to the north…Fair winds from the HR48 Warandher!
Best to you as well! North Sea was not fun
@@sailinghaldis Still in Portugal with the orcas though and for this year I’ll stop in Bilbao or Brittany. Watch out the Med in August, it’s nuts!
👍great video
Thank you! 😊
Really nice and our favorite sailboat brand! -- QUESTION -- One issue we have is the reflexive "sailboat vs catamaran" debate. We hear from many who tell us you "must" by a catamaran. Can I ask what you answer is to this as I am sure it was a consideration for you too. Not sure why exactly, but we like sailboats more.
Thank you! 😊 That’s a personal decision but I never considered a catamaran. I’ve always been a sailboat guy. My “mission” is offshore cruising. In the last month we’ve sailed, motorsailed and motored 2600 NM. To do this in a catamaran, I would have to deal with 2 engines and mooring logistics. They certainly are bigger and more comfortable but remember they also come with a mandatory escape hatch on the bottom!!
Let’s goooooo! 😎
Ibes!!!
What a nice day for the owner😅
Thank you! It was a great day! Ludvig was super cool
Excellent episode! Most interesting to follow/see how thorough the handover process is.
Which sailboat did you have before deciding on the HR? Also, which other sailboat brands did you consider?
Licking my lips for your sailing videos! 😋
Thank you! I considered Amel 50 but thought it would be too big.
I’ve been enjoying these recent videos. Good luck with the new boat, she’s a beauty.
@@PondoSinatra680 thank you!
That's a million Euro boat, out of reach for the majority. You're very lucky!
Although, I’ve never won the lottery, I do feel very fortunate. It’s a beautiful yacht, inside and out.
Was that Houtbay in the background? Looks like Houtbay or Llandadno
Hello Thomas. Thanks for this video. Is there a reason for doing the export from Norway? Thanks, Rick.
Yes, it was close and relatively easy.
Thanks. I’m keen to see the whole of the stay sail setup. It seems to be set close to the jib. Do you have a working stay sail to use with it, or will it just be for a storm stay sail? Thanks. Lots of great options choices throughout. Well done. Regards, Rick.
That’s your working staysail. If you choose to buy one. I opted for a storm jib. It’s a good size. If adverse weather is a possibility, best option is to pre rig the inner forestay and hank on the sail, lashing it to the deck(you’ll need those fittings added).
En nou varen,hou ruimte onder en voor de boot dit bij windje z zw 5 🎉😊
Goed advies! Ik zeil met een Nederlander in de volgende video
Great video and greater boat! keep up with thiese videos! If you need any helkping hand or recommendations while sailing spansih waters hit me up.
Thank you! We will likely sail to Barcelona in about 10 days. Just a quick stop and then we will head east to the French Riviera.
@@sailinghaldis cool! I live there on my boat for 5 months. Also studied there for years. If you need anything tell me. Enjoy
Can you recommend any anchorages that would be suitable for a quick stop over that are protected?
@@sailinghaldis anchoring near Barcelona is near to impossible. Maybe try some miles south around the ports of Vilanova, Garraf, Sitges. You could try north near Masnou or Mataró. However the prevailing winds, deep waters and marine traffic makes it difficult.
