Hylas 46 2009

AVVENTURA is a true cruising yacht that embodies the spirit of adventure. Designed by German Frers, this Hylas 46 is built for couples seeking comfort and confidence for offshore journeys, while remaining easy to handle for owner-operators who appreciate simplicity and reliability. The center cockpit and elevated deck saloon provide two essential features for long-range sailors: a secure working cockpit that can withstand real weather and a bright, airy living space with great visibility and airflow for extended stays at anchor. The Hylas 46 is renowned for its solid fundamentals, featuring a hull design that is not only fast but also steady and predictable at sea. The practical deck layout includes wide side decks, thoughtful handholds, and a cockpit optimized for underway operations. Access to systems is exceptionally convenient for a yacht of this class, with easy reach to key service points and robust, service-friendly features. AVVENTURA is a boat meant to be enjoyed and maintained, rather than just tolerated during marina weekends. Her history adds to her charm; originally launched as EXUBERANCE, she was first owned by someone who primarily used her for freshwater day sailing and entertaining. The second owner took over in 2020, and the current owner, her third, purchased her in 2022, maintaining high standards with seasonal use in Southwest Florida and The Bahamas. The yacht has been professionally maintained by Hinckley Yacht Services, with regular oversight to ensure everything runs smoothly, and she is kept fully detailed and waxed, along with monthly diver cleanings. Unlike many yachts, AVVENTURA has already undergone significant upgrades; her standing rigging was replaced in 2024, and she received a new Mack Sails high clew Yankee and matching staysail in 2023. Other enhancements include a new Victron MultiPlus inverter/charger, new AGM batteries, a dripless shaft seal, a Vetus 24V bow thruster with joystick control, and a drive shaft line cutter. Recent services include engine and generator maintenance in November 2025 and air conditioning servicing in 2026, along with the installation of a new dodger that same year. Equipped with Kato davits, a Forespar aluminum carbon fiber whisker pole, an all-purpose cruising spinnaker, and refreshed interior and cockpit soft goods, AVVENTURA is ready for cruising now, without the need for further yard work. Key highlights include a shoal draft keel perfect for the Bahamas, a raised deck saloon for exceptional light and ventilation, a secure center cockpit layout, and professional maintenance history. AVVENTURA is a highly reliable Hylas 46, ready for adventures in Southwest Florida and The Bahamas, and is an excellent choice for those considering longer-range cruising plans.
