Yachting Monthly - Hallberg Rassy 412 boat test

[@radbcc]

Let me be clear, I appreciate his honesty and low key approach...

[@Ayrtonman]

I love Chris's reviews, very down to earth, no b.s., very descriptive, Love it, keep em reviews coming.

[@spinnaker1]

I love Chris's reviews. "A bit of padding wouldn't go a miss!" LOL! Tell it like it is. Keep up the good work.

[@gkarjala]

I thought it was, "a bit of passion wouldn't go on this ". brit humor you know.

[@Dumptruck70]

I definitely love the practicality and directness of Chris. By far the best boat reviewer I’ve listened to.

[@deibertmichael]

Chris you do by far the best Boat review! Hands down! Wish you had more! Thank you!

[@MarcStjames-rq1dm]

this guy is the best sailboat presenter wonder what he's up to these days? Hope he became able to purchase one of these boats.... seems a decent bloke to sail with.

[@edwardfinn4141]

Marc St.james true dat

[@karelcuchal9813]

Agree, very professional review!

[@Oggiwara1]

At least he gives us subscribers honest reviews. So thumbs up for Chris! :-)

[@christopherhanges]

Yes, great practical points made, amazing review. You could use auto pilot whilst dabbing the two buttons for easing and furling. I notice you like two cabins and work cabin in these size of boats - totally agree - i.e. two couples/couple and skipper/couple and children max. perfect. It should also be noted that having this winch system means you can not only trim easily, but also retain larger higher powered genoas without relying on self tacking staysails or solent jibs which are smaller.

[@YachtingMonthly]

Chris did have a very short lived sales career, he was too honest! We're not trying to sell boats - only magazines :0)

[@gkarjala]

Yachting Monthly wait, what? Beeson rules the seas, next to Ian Walker.

[@robormiston2841]

We love your enthosism.

[@radbcc]

Actually, that is the type of sales person that I gravitate towards.

[@YachtingMonthly]

That is Chris being excited :0)

[@gkarjala]

You could tell he dug the Amel 55. i think his enthusiasm is subdued or in awe here.

[@NotBob223]

I miss his reviews... you guys should bring him back.

[@drakeParagon]

Wow, very nice boat and a really great tour! I really liked the cockpit helm controls, the salon viewing port in the topsides, the tv, and the washing machine. Wondering what she has for batteries, engine, tankage... Looking forward to the next tour,

[@gkarjala]

The new Paragon, i totally feel it. if i hit it big, you and Mo get one. Hey Moe, nyuk nyuk!!! Beeson rocks doesn't he ?( : ) ) >-

[@GILLEBRATH]

The bells and whistles,yes ,mostly self self evident info. What may have been more interesting to many, the engine specs,at least a peek at it, that,s my only question. A good review,never the less,thanks

[@EbutUoyFAN999]

Another great boat review YM, and another fine boat HR. I would like to know what height Chris is, it would be helpful to mention it in the "published on....." text as it helps giving a perspective to head height in the boat.

[@gkarjala]

Wouldn't swear to it, but i believe he's ave. ( 5'9" ) to tall. Think i picked that up somewhere.

[@byronwelichko8577]

EbutUoyFAN999 He said in one of his vids he was 6'

[@gkarjala]

Yeah, biggish. Wonder does he tipple a few. Seams cool dude.

[@crkemppainen]

That's a nice sailboat! I am going to get some pieces of clear plexi to copy her shower for my own now!

[@jerojonas]

Este barco es una pasada !! asi vale !! tiene hasta lavadora y una bodeguilla donde otros solo tienen una sentiona con aceite del motor y agua sucia. !! menuda joya !!

[@KaiTheItalianGuy]

Chris is da man!

[@zeusolimpo4814]

Beautiful nice boat👍🏻🥂🍷

[@davidaharon656]

Hi I'm looking for cheoy Lee ketch 45 to 53 project is okay to if you know any please let me know thanks 👍

[@MuhammadAmri-v7d]

Terasa lega kah... Se lega space keyboard diantara key alphabet dan toolkeyed lainnya, its computerisasi, hoomy yeaaah!!

[@deephousemanagement]

Great review, I've earmarked one of these or maybe even the 64 when I win the lottery..

[@lexluthor7657]

I would love to be able to afford a yacht that makes sailing this easy. "One finger boat." i can't even stand up straight in my 30 footer :(

[@thepaulogas]

wonderful boat !!!

[@gkarjala]

Chris Beast-on!!!

[@TheGeorge22p]

Hard to believe they would replace Chris with a jerk like Toby.

[@edjfinn]

Listen, and you will hear what he's saying. With something of that price range, I liked his approach, do not sway me with glitz and glamour, show me the real deal please!

[@jerryjohnson3084]

I would love to find me one so i can check it out myself.

[@NoodleNinjah]

The helm station is top grade, reminds me of the HR64

[@fairwayray]

No engine?

[@plstrom]

that is a fantastic boat ...

[@SuperMrminecraftdude]

Make one of the 55 or 64 foot version

[@goph999]

Light there and everywhere. Why? When you wake up in the morning you don't want to have the sun in your eyes.

[@정완묵-i1k]

[@NoodleNinjah]

Subtitles for what? He's speaking English

[@Bullerias]

Big ass wheel for a 41 footer

[@General_Crock]

Need a big ass wheel (or dual helm) for 40 footers that bring their beam that far back. And they pretty much all do now. Otherwise your can't drive while sitting outboard/on the coaming. Unless you have a tiller and extension!

[@Hallbergrussy]

"...it's nothing to do, everything is push buttons...." nevertheless a great boat!

[@arifabdullah7142]

Hallberg Rassy needs to sack all their designers. Now is not 70's.. it's time to design spacious dual cockpit configuration, bigger saloon and light colour saloon wood materials

[@jacobjorgenson9285]

Arif Abdullah You tell them...oh, how many sailboats did you sell this year?

[@anestislouadis8387]

Different tastes for different people.Hallberg Rassy has established it's market and builds yachts for a certain type of customers.I myself prefer boats that come off as "dated" since they provide a different kind of luxury and they use more solid wood in their interiors and their colors look more "mature".So I prefer these kinds of boats compared to the new age Ikea interiors.

[@conorchapman5856]

Why can't you review a Real sail boat that doesn't just run off electronics and just review a boat where there is actually work involved sailing is not sailing with out the work and trust me its a pain putting up every thing for my 1977 28' ft Islander and I know damn well you can't sail that thing of electronics

[@hdaviator9181]

"sailing is not sailing with out the work" Hogwash. Sailing is sailing. It doesn't matter how one puts the sail up, just that the sails are put up. What do you call it when you drive a modern car with Anti-lock brakes and electronic fuel injection? Do you not call it driving? Or do you need to be in a 40 year old piece of crap in order to say that you are "driving" for real? PS: All new production sail boats have electric something or other. Its not these guy's fault.

[@marlo2303]

+conor packapunch I am envious, too. As soon as I put my hands on half a million, I'm replacing my 24' bilge keeler with one of these lame electric gizmo loaded ones.

[@gkarjala]

Especially one of these. i dont know much about sailing, but i'll bet halberg rassy wouldn't put it on thier boat if they didn't feel good about it. They seem to eschew new fangled for tried and true but put craftmanship, materials, and engineering into it. For the price the ask they wouldn't be around if it were not so.

[@MyLapuLapu]

Conor, everyone likes redundancy when it comes to sailing, I know I would if I do get a sailboat, specially when your out there alone in the middle of the pacific ocean with wind above 30.

wine locker...

[@Sailingbill1]

I feel sorry for the poor bastard who is sailing this thing, and only relies on electronics to sail, when it loses battery power...... Class A boat. The wiring is really impressive. You can tell a Brit was not involved in designing the electronics.. Unlike my former Camper Nicholson which had 25 miles of wiring between the chart table to the engine area.....

[@chikken_soup]

I love HR but damn, they make ugly aft cockpit boats

[@christianschmitz3914]

good review as always but Chris's mumbling is just annoying .. also as always. Sorry. HR 41 not perfect but great!

[@radbcc]

1. This need subtitles. 2. This guy could NOT sell me a lifeline if I was drowning. 3. Need some more sailing video and more info on the engine. Other than that, great as usual...
