Head to head
The better figure on each line is in orange. Where either side has too few boats, we say so rather than pick a winner.
Year by year
Each build year's Gauge Estimate, for the 11 years both have boats in. Pooled across those years (18 and 19 boats), the Pacific Seacraft 37 asks about the same as the Hallberg-Rassy 352. Taken together, the estimates below point another way: each draws on boats built up to three years either side, while the same-age figure pairs boats of exactly the same build year, and with this few boats the two can differ. Read the same-age figure as Indicative, not settled.
What your budget buys
At £72,500 your money buys 5 years newer in the Hallberg-Rassy 352: a 1990 against a 1985.
A year of ownership
Each at its Gauge Value, on a South Coast marina berth, 44 engine hours a year (the median of 103 UK-listed sailing boats that report hours). An estimate in pounds from published rates, not a quote.
Each line is the middle of the cited range, to the nearest fifty pounds. Depreciation is a year of age on each model's published curve, at its Gauge Value, and stays out of the totals.

Questions
Which is cheaper, the Hallberg-Rassy 352 or the Pacific Seacraft 37?
There is no settled difference at the same age. Pooled across 11 shared build years the Pacific Seacraft 37 asks about the same as the Hallberg-Rassy 352, but year by year our Gauge Estimates point the other way, so read the same-age figure as Indicative, not settled. Their Gauge Values, the median asking prices of all the boats we observed whatever their age, are £62,500 and £80,500.
Which holds its value better?
The Hallberg-Rassy 352: it loses about 2.8% of its asking price a year of age, against 4.3% for the Pacific Seacraft 37. Both rates come from each model's published depreciation curve.
Which spends less time on the market?
Boats of the Hallberg-Rassy 352 had been listed a median of 245 days when we last saw them, against 36 days for the Pacific Seacraft 37. That is time listed so far, not time to sell, which we don't measure yet. 18% of the Hallberg-Rassy 352 boats we saw 14 or more days apart cut their asking price, against 31% of the Pacific Seacraft 37 boats.
How do you compare them like for like?
We compare boats of the same build year. For each of the 11 years both models have boats in, we take the ratio of their median asking prices in today's prices, then pool the years, giving more weight to years with more boats on both sides. The figure is Indicative because the thinner side has 18 boats in those years. The Gauge Values compare the whole fleets instead, so they mix boats of different ages.
