Hallberg-Rassy Mistress 32

Texto en Español más abajo.Towards the end of the Sixties Harry Hallberg (who had no sold yet his Company to Christoph Rassy) was building a range of cruiser sport biased boats. When it came out the 32 Mistress was a real racing boat, an I.O.R. Half Tonner racer. She was designed by Olle Enderlein who was to be for so long connected to the Yard's history. The first unit built, out of 110 in total, made a good impression during her first year of races: she was fifth at the Half Ton Cup held at La Rochelle and won the Baltic Race and the Skaw Race, a long distance regatta between Sweden and the Shetland Islands. But the following year a real winner was born: the Scampi, designed by a very young Peter Norlin, took by storm every race then and during the next three years, relegating the Mistress to be a fast cruiser-racer. Even thought that this model was not built in so high numbers as other boats from the same yard, those 110 units built are a proof of her succesful design which combines its wonderful performances to a luxurious interior, useful and cosy (particularly at that moment). The magnific craftmanship level is visible in any detail, with a profusion of solid wood and high quality deck and handling hard-ware. The Mistress 32 goes very well up-wind and is still fearsome on Club's races. She is a wonderful vessel to start sailing at the best and with a tiny budget. The Gundungen II had two Finnish owners and one Italian before 1999, when she was purchased by her present Spanish one who gave her back her original name that was changed by the Italian. He took advantage of her to family cruise and solo race, with fine outcome. In 2010, due to a collision, the boat was totally refitted, with works that gave her new life for twenty years plus, since she has been so carefully attended since then: today she still looks quite new! The boat was newully painted with Awlgrip that still is in very good shape, Sea-cocks were replaced in 2013, an electric bilge pump 6.000 l/h added in 2018. The Spray-hood, sun-awning, umbrella type bimini, Mainsail and liferaft covers are new (2021). Sure, she still needs a gel-coat renewal on deck, the sole work of a certain importance, but not essential to continue sailing as she actually does. His sons growth and his desire to still sail with them forces the owner to sell Gundungen II, in order to go on board a bigger yacht. Thus a perfect chance for someone who is looking for a small elegant vessel, comfortable, fast and easy to handle, in very good shape! A final de los Años Sesenta, Harry Hallberg (que aún no había vendido su empresa a Christoph Rassy), construía barcos más bien deportivos y cuando salió el 32 Mistress, se trataba de un verdadero barco de regatas de la categoría Media Tonelada I.O.R., diseñado por Olle Enderlein, cuyo nombre quedaría vinculado a la marca durante muchos años. El primero de los 110 barcos que se construyeron se portó muy bien durante el primer año de regatas: quinto en el Mundial de La Rochelle y vencedor de la Baltic Race y de la Skaw race, una regata de altura entre Suecia y las Islas Shetland. Pero al año siguiente salió un verdadero monstruo deportivo: el Scampi, diseño de un jovencísimo Peter Norlin que arrasó en todas las regatas durante tres años seguidos, relegando el barco de Hallberg a la categoría de crucero rápido. Aunque el modelo no quedó en producción durante muchos años, como pasó con otros barcos de Hallberg, los 110 ejemplares que se construyeron son un verdadero testimonio de la validez de su gran diseño, que aúna sus excelentes prestaciones a un lujoso interior muy práctico y habitable (especialmente para la época). La excelente calidad de construcción es patente en todos los acabados, con gran uso de madera maciza y aparejos de cubierta y maniobra de alta calidad. El Mistress es un
