<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?><span><p></p><h5></h5><p>Design and Build<br>
The Hallberg-Rassy Kutter 94 “Issy of Etive” is a beautifully built and carefully maintained classic motorsailer. Designed around a robust long-keel Scandinavian hull, she reflects Hallberg-Rassy’s long-standing reputation for strength, quality, and seaworthiness. As a result, she offers reassuring handling and excellent seakeeping in a wide range of conditions.</p>
<p>Ownership and Care<br>
Previously owned by a professional yacht surveyor, this Hallberg-Rassy Kutter 94 has benefited from consistent and knowledgeable care throughout her life. She has been regularly wintered ashore, which has helped preserve both structure and systems. Because of this, she presents as a yacht that has been maintained with long-term ownership in mind.</p>
<p>Cockpit and Deck Safety<br>
On deck, “Issy of Etive” feels secure and confidence-inspiring. The pilothouse-protected cockpit, combined with additional handrails, safe cockpit access, and well-placed grab points, makes movement around the yacht straightforward and safe. This setup works well for sailors of all ages and experience levels.</p>
<p>Systems and Equipment<br>
She is well equipped with a strong list of practical upgrades and modern systems. These include in-mast reefing, AIS, a bow thruster, electric windlass, liferaft, serviced sails with renewed sacrificial strips and leech lines, and a tricolour masthead light. Importantly, her decks have been professionally serviced, with all work supported by invoices.</p>
<p>Interior Specification<br>
From new, this Hallberg-Rassy Kutter 94 was specified directly from the yard with several thoughtful additions. These include extra hatches, additional shelving by the cabin bunks, and increased fuel and water tankage. Together, these features improve comfort, practicality, and cruising range, which makes her particularly well suited to extended time aboard.</p>
<p>Cruising Capability<br>
Overall, “Issy of Etive” offers a versatile blend of safety, comfort, and capability. She is equally at home on offshore passages or relaxed cruising in sheltered waters. This balance is one of the reasons the Hallberg-Rassy Kutter 94 remains so highly regarded.</p>
<p>Condition and Location<br>
The yacht is currently ashore in St Winnow, Fowey, and is available for viewing by appointment.</p>
