Ever After is one of the few highly sought after shoal draft models of the HR53. The custom teak interior woodwork also set her apart from many of her sisterships. Her equipment and systems are what long distance cruising sailers require and with her automatic furling and electric winches she can be single-handed or sailed by a couple quite easily.There are 6 comfortable berths in three private staterooms.
The HR53, was featured in Mate's the World's Best Sailboats. This is not surprising considering she was designed by the legendary naval architect German Frers and built by one of the world's most experienced quality builders Hallberg-Rassy.
