Overview
To sailors who know boats the words German Frers and Hylas go hand in hand with quality construction, quality engineering, and quality design. In the world of blue water offshore cruising there are few who would look past a Hylas 54 as the ultimate yacht. To many they are the last yacht they will own after a lifetime on the water.
This gorgeous Hylas 54 Raised Salon "Spinnaker" has been very well maintained and is ready for a new owner to take her cruising either locally or long range. The Hylas 54 is a capable world cruiser and this boat is equipped to comfortably make the journey. With 3 Cabins and 2 Heads you can host 6 comfortably for a cruise. If you convert the Salon Table into a berth and pull out the settee you can sleep 3 more for a total of 9 overnight guests. Perhaps the most desirable feature is the large Aft Cabin with Queen size center-line berth containing four drawers under the berth, cedar lined hanging lockers with lights, fans, mirror and shelves on both sides.

Descriptions
One of the primary reasons the Hylas 54 has enjoyed such popularity over the past 10 years is the luxurious 3 stateroom accommodations and magnificent varnished teak woodwork. With her long waterline and generous beam carried well aft, there are no compromises made to any of the sleeping, living, galley and navigation areas.
Cabin layout is as follows: Large walk-around V-berth cabin forward with two drawers under the berth, cedar lined hanging locker, night light, fans, mirror, and a shelf on both sides. Aft to starboard is the forward head with separate stall shower. Across to port is the second guest cabin with double berth, cabinets above the berth, six drawers under the berth, mirror, and a hanging locker mounted 20" below the headliner with removable shelves and rod. Next aft is the main salon with a C-shaped dinette with centerline seat to port and a curved settee to starboard. There are numerous storage bins, drawers, and cabinets thoughout the salon. Aft of the salon and to port is the outboard facing, sit-down navigation station. Across to starboard is the galley, which is located in the walkthrough to the aft cabin. The aft cabin has a centerline queen berth with a small settee to starboard and a large cedar lined hanging locker. The aft head also has a separate stall shower.
