Halma Rib reveals the first details of the HR 35: the flagship will be bold and fast

The new Halma Rib flagship is on its way: the official presentation of the new elegant RIB from the Palermo-based shipyard is scheduled for June 15. Given the brand’s success at recent international boat shows, it’s no surprise that interest is growing around the launch of this latest model. Curious ourselves, we went to discover in advance the key features of the HR 35, a high-end maxi RIB that carries forward and enhances the striking lines of its predecessors.

Halma Rib HR 35: the XXL bow meets a beam of 3.85 meters

The HR 35 joins a lineup that already includes a 25-foot model (the HR 25) and a 30-foot model (the HR 30, available in outboard and sterndrive versions). With its 11.30 meters in length and a generous beam of 3.85 meters, the new maxi RIB multiplies onboard space, offering ample surfaces for those who want to enjoy the sea in complete comfort.

It’s well known and highly appreciated that Halma Rib knows how to make smart use of every available centimeter. The flagship takes full advantage of this instinctive trait and, thanks to the impressive beam and the XXL bow, offers unprecedented spaces for conviviality and relaxation: just look at the large sunbathing area or, at the stern, the outdoor dinette with a U-shaped sofa and an additional double front seat, perfect for group outings in comfort.

HR 35: Halma’s first cabin Maxi-Rib

The HR 35 is the first cabin RIB from the Palermo-based shipyard. Its evolution builds on the winning design of previous models, all created by Inzerillo & Albeggiani Yacht Design. Here too, it is a RIB that conveys exclusivity at first glance, thanks to its elegant lines and prestigious finishes.

Under the boldly swept-back coachroof sits a console that provides plenty of space, leaving no limits for onboard electronics or driving fun.

Halma Rib’s distinctive wide bow in the HR 35 doubles the benefits for the owner. The interior also benefits, with a comfortable bed that maximizes the width of the hull. To allow couples to plan comfortable medium- and even long-range cruises, there is also a separate bathroom and shower area. Needless to say, the sophistication found on deck is echoed below, with high-quality materials and refined design.

Beautiful, spacious and exuberant

It’s still early to talk about the performance of Halma Rib’s new RIB, but the information we already have makes us think that the HR 35 will be not only comfortable and elegant, but also quite fast. We can say this because we’ve already had the pleasure of sea trials with the HR 30, which features the same deep V-hull as the flagship, and had a lot of fun doing so; and because here the builder recommends a minimum power of two 350-hp outboards, and a maximum of two 500-hp outboards. This promises a hull that can take you anywhere, quickly and in style.

From Sicily, a new and seriously intriguing RIB is about to set sail, bringing Halma Rib’s craftsmanship and obsessive attention to detail beyond 11 meters. We can’t wait for June to arrive so we can discover the HR 35 in all its glory!
