2000 Hylas 46 - Helios

New Arrival.  Equipped for Blue Water Cruising

Helios, a stunning Hylas 46 designed by German Frers, was built for blue-water cruising and is suitably equipped for a luxurious experience while crossing oceans. She's been well maintained and is fully outfitted for long-distance passage-making.

The Hylas 46 design has a generous beam carried well aft, providing excellent stability and more interior volume than yachts of similar length. The design incorporates many safety features including true waterproof bulkheads fore and aft as well as a Twaron (a Kevlar-like material) reinforced hull.

Visually stunning, Helios has received a steady stream of compliments for her superb good looks. Below decks you will find a beautifully appointed teak interior with a high-gloss finish. There are staterooms with ensuite heads fore and aft. The aft has a centerline queen-sized berth; the forward berth also sleeps two. In the salon there is room to sleep three. The galley is truly capable of gourmet cooking.

Helios is cutter-rigged, with in-mast furling mainsail, and genoa and staysail furling by Furlex. With her recent upgrades, Zodiac inflatable, solar panels, water maker, bow thruster, and ICW friendly mast height, she is easily handled by two and ready for her next adventure.
