INTERNAL DATA INSTRUMENT · LITHOFGAND · NOT FOR CIRCULATION

Hallberg-Rassy 49 — Fleet Economics Control Centre

Eighty-nine near-identical hulls, Ellös 1982–1997, treated as one homogeneous secondary-asset portfolio. For every boat with usable evidence: the observed price, the full itemised capital bridge to a single Ocean-Ready Standard (ORS-49), transaction friction, the fully-loaded Day-1 cost, and the resulting equity gap against a comps-derived Normalised Enterprise Value — all in constant 2026 euros, all traceable to sources.

This is an evidence instrument, not a valuation opinion. 10 of 51 identified boats carry enough evidence for a bridge; 7 prices in the entire history of this fleet are notarised sales — everything else is asking prices. Where the register is silent the ranges are wide and say so. No depreciation schedules, no broker guidance, no recommendations. Generated 2026-08-09 by scripts/generate_econ_centre.py from the register at github-ready state; underlying computations in data.json.

Where the money sits: Day-1 cost composition

Entry + friction + central bridge per boat against the NEV band. Whisker marks the low–high Day-1 range. The recurring pattern of this fleet: mid-priced boats whose bridge pushes Day-1 through NEV — the market systematically underprices remaining capex, and asking prices embed condition stories the evidence does not support.

Thirty years of real prices

Every dated price observation in the register, converted to 2026 euros. The class appreciated in real terms into the 2007–2010 window (notarised NOK sales at €305–335k), then repriced 30–40% down; today's asks sit at late-1990s real levels while the only verified post-refit sale (Bedouin 2023) defines the top.

Normalised Enterprise Value — derivation

NEV = what an ORS-49-condition HR 49 is worth in the 2026 market. Central €300 000, band €250k–€360k. Confidence: LOW: one verified sale (at a HIGHER standard than ORS-49), unsold asks everywhere else.

— The fleet has repriced DOWN in real terms: 2007-2010 verified sales at EUR 305-335k (2026 money) vs 2025-26 asks of EUR 135-250k for mid-condition boats — and even those asks are not clearing.

— NEV is deliberately the value of an ORS-49 boat, not a Bedouin-grade showpiece: capability without cosmetics. Presenting a boat at Bedouin grade costs a further EUR ~60-90k and, on the single verified datapoint, returns roughly that amount at sale — no arbitrage either way.

— NEV applies to the standard hull. Hull 1 (unique 16 m twin-cockpit) and the 5 Caribia-edition boats have no comp set; variant premium/discount unquantified.

— Refit capex does not transfer 1:1 into value. The market pays for CONDITION, evidenced; it pays nothing for invoices.

— TENSION RECORDED, not averaged: two independent ask-anchored models (BUC book, deal-file exit ladder) place partially-sorted exits at EUR 165-230k — below this band's floor. The band holds for FULL ORS-49 condition with documentation (Bedouin's EUR 381k real sale is the proof it can clear); treat the band's low half as where sorted-but-undocumented boats actually trade.

— Rig plan: BUC's +16.5% ketch book premium is a list-price artifact; the observed market pays no ketch premium (a 1986 owner paid to CONVERT ketch->sloop in 2008). BUC has NO 1985 sloop record at all — consistent with the yard's 'in the beginning she was only built as a ketch' and a ketch-dominant 1982-87 production era.

— ASSET FLOOR (imported, deal file 22): component-level liquidation of an HR 49 is NEGATIVE (orderly -EUR 3,899; separation costs ~EUR 23k eat the ~EUR 19k recoveries). Whole-beats-parts by ~EUR 32k; derived whole-boat floor EUR 28-43k. 100%+ of the asset's value is going-concern value.

W&S Lefkas boat (1987) evidence grade A · 8/11 lines verified · 1 unknown

The best-evidenced live boat: nine of eleven systems verified, cleanest VAT/title file, and a reconstructed price history (EUR 260k ask 2017 -> GBP 150k today) showing the vendor has already absorbed the market's real-terms repricing. Everything reduces to a single decision: trust the original engine or budget EUR 45-65k to repower. Even with a full repower, Day-1 lands below NEV central — after two years on the market and a price cut, this is the only boat on the board with a clearly positive central-case gap. The market is paying the seller nothing for nine verified systems.

CARPE DIEM — Cres auction (1985) evidence grade B · 4/11 lines verified · 6 unknown

Now identified: CARPE DIEM, an American-specification boat (120V, Westerbeke, Village Marine; US official number hypothesised) lying under auction at Cres. The deal file's forensics harden the bridge: sails are verifiably due, the 120V system adds European conversion cost, the 2017 hull job still retires the worst tail, and seven volumes of ship's records sit aboard — the provenance asset of the fleet if captured. The economics remain an option, but the strike is the HAMMER, not the start bid: at the deal file's modelled median hammer (EUR 119-134k at historical bid intensity) the central gap goes decisively negative. Below EUR ~80k it stays a surveyor's trade with the largest right tail on the board — and the component-level floor is NEGATIVE (whole beats parts by ~EUR 32k), so a structural miss costs more than everything. The deal file's independent embedded-value scenarios (+GBP 58k / +11k / -146k) bracket this register's bridge almost exactly — two models, one conclusion.

Live listing = EUR 50,000 auction start. DEAL-FILE CORRECTION: the 50k is a MECHANICAL ~0.2 x restatement of the EUR 250,000 ask (platform median 0.204, n=181) — not distress evidence in itself [V]. Hammer formation (deal-file model, 46 lots): boats median 32 bids; at the historical 26-40 bid band median hammer EUR 119-134k; P(hammer <= EUR 80k) only 3-34%. Every euro of hammer above 50k moves Day-1 and the gap 1:1 — the numbers below are the START-BID case, i.e. near the boat's best case, not its expected case.

Hull 1 AMFITRITE (1983, 16 m variant) evidence grade C · 1/11 lines verified · 9 unknown

Historically the most interesting hull (No. 1, one-off 16 m layout) and analytically the least comparable. The missing teak deck deletes the single biggest tail cost, which quietly makes her bridge distribution better than the ask suggests — but every other system is undocumented and the exit market for a modified first-hull is a guess.

Berthon Scandinavia ask SEK 1,950,000 (~EUR 175k). Unique first hull: extended 52'6" twin-cockpit transom, no teak deck, Yanmar 120hp repower (year unstated). NEV comparability is weak — no comp set exists for this variant.

⚠ NEV caveat: Unique variant: standard-hull NEV applies only loosely; the extended layout may attract a premium buyer or a discount for non-originality. Treated at standard NEV with the caveat displayed.

Hull 17 PEGASUS (1984) evidence grade B · 2/11 lines verified · 3 unknown

The embedded-value candidate. A 418-hour 2016 Yanmar removes the fleet's biggest single cost, the institutional owner removes seller-storytelling risk, and the ask has already deflated 55% from 2020. The catch is geography: EUR 12-25k transatlantic friction and a US-spec boat for a European buyer. For a US-based buyer (strip the EUR 12-25k transatlantic friction) central Day-1 sits essentially at NEV — the fairest-priced boat observed. For a European buyer the Atlantic eats the entire margin and then some: geography, not condition, decides this one.

Sofer Preveza boat (1986) evidence grade B · 5/11 lines verified · 5 unknown

A loved, 12-years-one-family boat (3rd ownership) with the two structural fears (osmosis, engine) retired — but priced as if the 2008 systems were new. Rig is 18 years old, the wardrobe likely too, electrics undocumented, and the VAT flag can add ~20% for an EU user. At ~EUR 198k entry the central bridge pushes Day-1 roughly EUR 60k through NEV central before the VAT flag is even priced. The ask embeds the seller's affection and the 2008 refit's memory, not its 2026 remainder.

BEAR (1987) — stale/delisted evidence grade C · 0/12 lines verified · 10 unknown

A data-integrity object lesson: after stripping a copy-pasted history (see conflict ledger), the record holds one decent engine datapoint and a stale price on a delisted boat. The 200hp repowered engine at 2,840 hrs would be a genuine asset if the boat resurfaces; until then this bridge exists mainly to show what the register does NOT know.

The fleet's best-documented boat and its cautionary tale on capex recovery: EUR 230k (2026 money) invested in 2018, asking EUR 300k seven years later, unsold — the ask effectively prices the refit at ~EUR 70-130k of recovered value over a EUR 170-230k base boat. For a buyer, Day-1 central lands EUR ~140k above NEV: the ask prices the 2018 refit close to fully while the market (which has not met it in over a year) does not. Best documentation in the fleet, worst central-case economics after Altor and Queen Anne. The 5,000-hr original engine is the question the ask ignores.

The most expensive live boat and the least evidenced: one verified fact (5,210-hr original engine) and ten unknowns. A younger hull (1990) justifies some premium, but at EUR 249k the ask already sits at ~67% of NEV before a single bridge item — and the honest bridge range is EUR 30-300k wide. Worst risk-adjusted entry on the board until a survey collapses the unknowns.

Queen Anne (1985) evidence grade B · 1/12 lines verified · 3 unknown

The classic broker-storytelling gap: 'well-priced ketch' vs the arithmetic of three years' neglect. The honest central bridge (~EUR 340k with recommissioning and contingency) on a EUR 140k boat lands Day-1 near EUR 500k against a EUR 300k NEV — the widest central-case value destruction on the board. Only a deep further price cut or a surveyor's miracle changes this picture. The US-market origin thread (unverified) adds title-history diligence.

Observed transaction price

139,500 EUR (2026-08-09, [V])

Denison capture: off market at EUR 139,500 after failing to sell from USD 146,475 (Dec 2024). Ashore ~3 years; broker text itself concedes 'inadequate maintenance... owner's health issues'. A motivated-seller situation without a live ask.

Identified boats without a bridge — and why

BoatGradeReason
named:ELEA_IIIDAsk EUR 220-240k observed but condition record is a spec sheet only (140hp engine of unknown year, 2 heads). An 11-unknown bridge adds no information beyond the 1994_UK exemplar; recorded as price-only.
named:Isla_de_JamaicaDCondition fragments (ketch, 143CV) but no reliable price captured — listing price never observed despite listing being live since >= Nov 2020. No bridge without a price.
named:Big_Blue-Charter boat, not for sale; 143hp/4,800-hr fingerprint held for identity, no transaction to bridge.
named:Yachting_Address_1988_89_Liguria_ketchDSOLD at EUR 265,000 (aggregator, undated, I) — one number, zero condition data, unknown date makes even inflation adjustment unreliable.
named:1987_SMN_PortGrimaudDConflicting year/price captures (1985-ketch-EUR150k vs 1987-USD174k) still unresolved in the conflict ledger — bridging a boat whose identity is unstable would be false precision.
rest_of_fleet-The remaining ~60 hulls are dark: no price, no condition, in several cases no name. They appear in the coverage ledger, not in the economics.

Case studies — what the verified history teaches

Hull 63 BEDOUIN — the completed bridge (sold)

YearEventNominal2026 €
1988Built (register construction year, V)
1996Repowered TAMD41PA 200hp (both De Valk listings, V)
2010sDe Valk listing 803929: lying Italy, 3,580 hrs, sold at private price (V)
pre-2023German ownership as DRESSCODE BIKINI (AIS identity, I); last AIS Monfalcone 2023-03
2021-22Full refit in Italy, 'over EUR 330,000 invested' (De Valk 808555 broker text, V-capture/seller-stated)EUR 330,000€379 500
2023NOTARISED SALE EUR 370,000 (Norwegian register bill of sale, V)EUR 370,000€381 100
2024Voluntarily deregistered; current registration unknown (register, V)

Lesson: The only fully-observed refit-to-exit cycle in the fleet: EUR ~380k (2026 money) of refit alone bought an exit of EUR ~381k (2026 money). The pre-refit boat — a running, repowered, 3,900-hr HR 49 — was implicitly valued by this chain at approximately ZERO net of refit invoices (caveats: seller-stated refit figure; genset was broken at sale; purchase price of the base boat unobserved). This single verified cycle is why every bridge in this system treats refit capex as largely non-recoverable and why NEV is anchored at ~EUR 370k.

Hull 10 FREIDIG — 30 years of notarised prices

YearEventNominal2026 €
1996Bill of sale (as MYLADY, ex-GRIZZLY)NOK 922,500€193 600V
2007Bill of sale (Carpe Diem Singelreiser AS)NOK 1,875,000€332 800V

2019Bill of sale — sole ownership consolidationNOK 462,500€55 600V

Lesson: The cleanest real-price series in the fleet: a 12-year-old HR 49 traded at EUR ~194k (2026 money) in 1996; the same hull traded at EUR ~308-333k (2026 money) three times during 2007-2010. Today's live asks for comparable boats are EUR 135-250k. The class appreciated in real terms into 2007-10, then gave back 30-40% — todays's buyer is purchasing at a real-terms level last seen in the late 1990s.

2019Bill of sale (Vetaas, renamed LOTTA)NOK 1,845,000€221 700V

Lesson: Same nominal NOK price eight years apart = a 27% real-terms decline between 2011 and 2019, bridging the gap between the 2007-10 peak and today's level. Nominal price stability masked steady real repricing.

Hull 87 — the relisting treadmill

Lesson: Three brokerage cycles in roughly a decade with only ~1,200 hours added: a lightly-used, repeatedly-traded boat. Relisting frequency in this fleet is not a red flag about the boat so much as evidence that ownership tenure of a 49-ft ocean cruiser is often shorter than the refit cycle it requires — which is precisely how deferred capex accumulates between owners.

Methodology

The Ocean-Ready Standard (ORS-49)

Robust, immediate ocean-crossing capability: the boat could depart on a trade-wind circuit within one season without deferred-risk items. It is NOT a concours restoration: cosmetics, interior styling and optional comfort systems (watermaker, air-conditioning, davits) are excluded and noted separately where present.

Explicitly excluded: Interior cosmetics / upholstery (Bedouin's 2021/22 refit shows these can absorb large sums without changing ocean-capability); Watermaker, air-conditioning, davits (comfort options; presence is noted as embedded extras, absence is not costed); Rig-plan conversion (ketch vs sloop treated as equivalent for capability; market preference handled in the NEV note)

Aggregation rules

OK: low 0, high 0, central 0 — evidence shows compliant; note residual age where relevant

SERVICE: service_low..service_high; central = midpoint

DUE: due_low..due_high; central = midpoint

UNKNOWN: low 0, high due_high, central = 0.5 x due midpoint — no evidence either way on a 35-40 year old boat; the honest treatment is a wide range, not a guess

SPLIT: custom low/high per line (e.g. original engine that runs well: low = major service, high = replacement); central = 0.5 x (low+high)

contingency: Applied to central and high only (low assumes no surprises): 15% where condition evidence is rich, 20% moderate, 25% where the boat is substantially unsurveyed or long laid-up

note: LOW is a genuine best case (every unknown resolves favourably), HIGH a prudent worst case short of structural failure. CENTRAL is the planning number.

What this analysis cannot know

Condition evidence comes from broker listings, owner statements and registers — not surveys; a surveyor can move any bridge here by six figures in either direction. Asking prices dominate the price record; only 7 observations are notarised. The NEV rests principally on one verified transaction. Refit invoices are seller-stated. Rig-plan (ketch/sloop) and Caribia-edition value effects are unquantified. Roughly 64 of 89 hulls are entirely dark — the observable market is a survivorship-biased sample of the best-documented boats.

Coverage & the dark fleet

Of 89 hulls: 25 identified by yard number, 26 further boats known by name or listing, 64 hull numbers unassigned — at least 38 boats about which nothing is known. The bridged set above is therefore the market-visible tail of the fleet, not a random sample: boats appear in this analysis because they were sold, listed, raced or registered somewhere observable. The dark fleet's condition distribution is unknowable from public sources; the register (see companion research control centre) tracks the identification effort.
