Would You Save This Beautiful Swedish Hallberg Mistral 33 Sailboat? | $12k | Tour
Would you save this beautiful Swedish yacht?
In this episode of BoatFools Sailing, Canadian Ken and I tour a classic 1970 Hallberg Mistral 33, one of the elegant Swedish cruising yachts designed by the legendary Olle Enderlein.
At first glance, she’s absolutely gorgeous. Rich mahogany, beautiful sheer lines, teak decks, a dependable low-hour Yanmar diesel, and timeless Scandinavian styling make this one of those boats that stops you in your tracks.
But there’s another side to the story.
A recent insurance survey uncovered several structural and safety issues that mean this is not a turn-key cruiser. Instead, she’s an opportunity for the right buyer—someone looking for a rewarding restoration project rather than instant gratification.
Despite the challenges, there’s a lot to like:
⚓ 2007 Yanmar 3YM30 diesel (approximately 448 hours)
⚓ Beautiful replacement teak deck
⚓ Good mainsail and roller-furling genoa
⚓ New 2025 Raymarine electronics package including Axiom+ 9, Quantum 2 Doppler radar, i70s instruments, and more
⚓ Working windlass
⚓ Dodger, dinghy davits, solar panels, autopilot, and more
Currently located in Spruce Head, Maine, Alberio is offered as-is for $12,000.
