Hylas 56 2016

Stella Blue, the Hylas 56, is a remarkable vessel that stands out as the most lightly used yacht of its kind on the market today. This exceptional boat has been lovingly cared for by her original owner and has spent her entire life in freshwater, typically used for only three months each year. For the rest of the year, she has been stored indoors in a heated facility, ensuring her condition remains pristine. Each winter, the mast is removed to shield the rigging, deck hardware, and exterior finishes from harsh elements. This meticulous ownership and storage history is reflected in her immaculate exterior, interior, machinery spaces, and bilge, free from the typical saltwater corrosion found on many yachts. The Hylas 56 is not just about condition; its design and construction make it a compelling choice for offshore cruising. This robust bluewater design features a center-cockpit layout that offers a secure working environment on deck while providing a spacious and private aft owner’s suite below. Built with hand-laid Twaron carbon-aramid fiber and fiberglass, the hull is soundly constructed with a watertight collision bulkhead, substantial stainless-steel keel bolts, and a partially skegged rudder, ensuring safety and durability. On deck, safety is paramount with high stanchions, double lifelines, and wide side decks, while generous storage options facilitate efficient offshore operation. The cutter rig, electric in-mast furling mainsail, and roller-furling headsail make sail handling easy, especially for couples or limited crews. Below deck, the customized three-cabin, two-head layout features high-quality teak finishes, ample storage, and nearly seven feet of headroom, with a full-length galley and a dedicated navigation station for smooth offshore passages. The spacious aft owner’s stateroom offers a centerline queen berth and ensuite head. For buyers seeking a Hylas 56 free from wear and tear, Stella Blue represents a rare opportunity with her exceptional provenance, freshwater history, and meticulously maintained condition. Key features include a powerful Yanmar 110 HP diesel engine, Side-Power bow thruster, extensive storage, and high-quality appliances, all designed for comfortable and safe cruising.
