Hallberg-Rassy 69. Part One. A Yacht Delivery from Kiel to Cannes. An Epic delivery!!!

[@jlittleboy]

That boat is glorious. A well done video I much enjoyed.

[@Halcyonyachts]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@finaboykm]

So many of the boat videos show sunny conditions/people in shorts standing near the bow drinking a glass of wine/a couple of knots of wind/designer sunglasses/blue clear water/sailing within view of the coastlines aesthetic sun sets.This video shows why HalBR is the boat I would by if/when able. Handling the North Sea with all its changing conditions/attention grabbing wind/wave conditions/waves breaking over the sides-draining from the cockpit/ electronics that can be trusted/ease of furling the sails and having the boat staying firm/long and solid thru the toughest conditions.HalBR is the only true yacht to own because experience of sailing combined with a outstanding quality build and tested will get you safely to where you want to be. Will be watching more of the line ups HalBR videos.

[@guidouytterhaegen]

What did you expect from a 3.5 million boat??? Rubbish,,!!!???3.5 million starting price,halberg rassy= good expensive boat,but they should not be hyped like they lots off people like to do,there are lots off equally good boats on the water.

[@bos6782]

What a yacht , absolute beauty, love your content.

[@rossbarlow6355]

A boat that dreams are made of. Well done, I look forward to the rest of the journey. Cheers.

Love this longer format! Great film!

Thank you!

[@MrAnthism]

what a wonderful boat! Thank you for taking us with you captain.

[@Halcyonyachts]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jamaljabi5295]

I've been waiting for a video which shows Hallberg Rassy 69 sailing, this video showed it all, great performance and minimal roll, the hard dodger provides great protection. I'm sure all of you on board enjoyed the trip even with Orca alert, I will watch part two, keep it up and stay safe.

[@Halcyonyachts]

Thank you very much!

Living The Dream! Great Video Skipper

Looks great guys!

[@soggybottom3463]

Beautiful. Thanks for taking us with, Skipper 👍

[@Halcyonyachts]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Jerseydoosh]

Cable tie tip! Have a small file or sand paper stored with the ties to take the edge off the cut end. Not only will it keep from wearing in to anything near it, it will keep you from getting cut when you go to do full repair.

[@ChrisHarding-lk3jj]

Get a pair of true flush cutters and put a little tension on the end while cutting so the end is just slightly recessed. Or use a pencil torch to melt the ends.

[@svlamancha9877]

Great stuff. Top crew and beautiful yacht👍

[@Halcyonyachts]

We agree!

[@gregsutton2400]

Been waiting for this! My favorite crew and a KZbin post! Love your videos guys. Wish you would post more here on KZbin. But thanks, beautiful boat, great trip so far!

[@Halcyonyachts]

More to come!

[@petercarroll7917]

Great videos hope to get selected for a trip with the guys someday😎

[@GoneSailingCA]

we've just come down from Kiel too, no orcas

[@747crab]

What date was this please? Just trying to plot the time of the Orca interaction. Beautiful boat!

[@madisonian50]

What sort of watch schedule do you keep on these deliveries with three crew? The standard 4/8?

[@Halcyonyachts]

3 on 6 off is the general watch system we operate...

[@klpe1251]

Is this the serial no 1 or did they manage to squeeze out several of these already?

[@waltervanderboor]

Like to see this boat perform, hope to do this route on a cat though. No more monohull. But those orcas… I think it time for Orca sushi, their protection does not make any sense in comparison with anything else we humans do you sea life.. wonder how we protect tunas, sharks, “by catch”… rest my case. Nice boat on the outside.

[@howarddavies2483]

Minimum numbers of crew to safely sail this yacht?

[@Halcyonyachts]

Depends on how far you are going. She would be fine for day sailing with just two.

[@music-man]

My favourite hallberg rassy. just stunning. Does anyone know why these orcas do this. Is it just in this body of water or is this happening around the world in other bodies of water.

[@philipwright7186]

It's just this family of orca that have taken up this habit. It started in 2020, so far nobody really knows why. It might have been triggered by the change in human behavioral patterns, but it is limited to this family although they travel between Gibraltar and the northern regions of Biscay. There is some suggestion it started when an orca was injured by a boat, possibly a fishing boat, but experts suggest the orca aren't being aggressive (by their standards), just playing.

[@finaboykm]

Some people claim it’s about the rudders/ ultrasound vibration or the boat is their new play toy. I wonder how they would react if you used the sound of a fog horn thru a tube stuck in the water because of the Orcas sensitivity to high frequencies?

[@bonvoyage5377]

Correct me if Im wrong, but dont you have to cross the traffic at 90 degrees??

[@Halcyonyachts]

If you are in the TSS, yes you do. They didn't cross the TSS, they turned after passing it.

[@madisonian50]

Personally I like 3/6.

[@johnbufton5938]

😀

[@jantrygveolsen1109]

Is it sold, or is it still property of mr Rassy?

[@MarkTreacherYachtDeliveries]

Still owned by Halberg Rassy

[@pierrevanhalteren5733]

It's certainly very comfortable, well built and efficient but charming and sould uplifting certainly not. That interior wood colour (sort of beige) reminds me of cheap german hotels of the seventies/eighties. The deck is apparently not teak anymore, well it really shows. Probably more of a boat to live with than to look at.

[@markntexas8265]

So looks there is a need to develop an orca repellent

[@marcelfischer6960]

Orcas?

[@Andre-yu3qs]

Yes, dwarf orcas have sunk several sailing boats.

[@Team33Team33]

I was under the impression that a national flag flying at the stern was an indication that the owner was onboard and that he/she is from Sweden ?

[@MarkTreacherYachtDeliveries]

The flag just indicates the country the vessel is registered in.

[@Team33Team33]

@@MarkTreacherYachtDeliveries I'd look that up if I were you. The flagstaff at the stern means that the owner is aboard. The nationality of the boat should be flown underneath the national flag of the country you are visiting - usually on the shrouds.

[@paulwilliams3494]

I think that is true of the Royal Standard relating to when the monarch is in on board or in residence but no Britannia anymore. 😣😉

[@Team33Team33]

@@paulwilliams3494 It is definitely true. It started with the monarchs (because they were the only ones who could afford large yachts) but it became customary for all yachts in the 1900's. I'm surprised a professional captain has no idea of this OR that he should hoist the flag of the country he is visiting above his own country's flag on the shrouds.... Weird.

[@paulwilliams3494]

I'll be perfectly clear, I'm not questioning anyone's actions or professionalism. I have no qualifications to do so, have you? Either way if I was asked in a general knowledge question what a flag on a little pole at the stern of a private yacht signified I would definitely say simply the country that was registered in. In my area of the United Kingdom I see lots of red ensigns flying similarly, so what does that signify ?

[@soggybottom3463]

Can't help but comment ref the Orcas. They don't seem to be stopping this behaviour on their own, and it seems to me there is a high chance of this group teaching their nasty little hobby to other pods. The "authority" position is apparently that there is nothing to be done. I think the current "authority" needs firing, given the amount of time this distressing, damaging and dangerous situation has been allowed to continue, with not even a suggestion of a remedy in sight.

[@finaboykm]

I wonder if using a fog horn via a tube stuck in the water would stop these orcas from damaging their new “ play toy”. If their hearing is so sensitive/ such a pitch from the fog horn would be disruptive and disorienting?

[@JohnJohn-cu7nk]

THEY need to get a couple of Yatchts out with an electrified keel and rudders and purposefully interact with the orcas to change their behaviour.They use electricity in rivers to stun fish , so the technology isn't that difficult

[@soggybottom3463]

@@JohnJohn-cu7nk Good post, why not? If this problem goes on, they will end up culling the culprits. Maybe more, as they have had chance to pass the habit on. Insanity. But that's "the authorities" eh? 🙄

[@JohnJohn-cu7nk]

@@soggybottom3463 Agree .I don't understand the lack of action
