German Frers
No Frills Sailing Interview
November 2017
“There isn´t much introduction needed when speaking of both: Germán Frers and Hallberg-Rassy. Germán Frers is a living legend, nothing less than one of the most influential naval architects and yacht designers of our century.
A person, who´s ideas have not only shaped a whole fleet of yachts but had been pathbreaking and game-changing for yacht brands like Nautor´s Swan, Wally or – you name it – Hallberg Rassy. When I was meeting Magnus Rassy during last Cannes Boat Show (read the article here) I on one occasion walked passing by Mr. Frers on La Croisette – I was so stunned and shocked that I didn´t had the guts to just talk to him.”
