Construction and Key Features of the Hull & Deck HULL The Hylas 49 is a well-proven and competent bluewater cruiser. TINY DANCER is fast, sea-kind, and strong. Constructed with hand-laid-up fiberglass laminates set with vinyl ester resins and isophthalic gelcoat for superior protection from osmosis and blistering. Eight longitudinal stringers are tied to each frame and bulkhead. The result is a stiff and seamless monolithic structure above ABS standards. The encapsulated lead keel and low ballast provide a low center of gravity for high stability and are fastened with solid 35mm stainless steel keel bolts with transverse-mounted 8mm backing plates. The forward hull section is well-shaped for rough seas and well-reviewed for its excellent abilities in heavy weather without pounding. The distance between the rudder and keel is measured by design to provide superior directional stability and balance. The rudder post has full structural support from the hull to the deck. For added safety and protection from hard grounding, the rudder skeg is 2 inches higher than the low point of the keel.
DECK Characterized by expansive side decks and high stanchions and equipped with the desirable option to bring the pushpit stainless steel rail to the mid-ship gates at full length, Tiny Dancer is a boat aboard which the crew will feel safe and secure. The deck has a sandwich core construction with an end-grain balsa core. Solid laminate is utilized in all deck areas for fittings and high-stress regions. Chemically and mechanically fastened with 5200 epoxies and through-bolted every 5 inches with backing plates, the Hylas 49 is known for its superior strength and reliable construction. The surface is molded non-skid.
