This apex Hylas model sports the beautiful classic lines that are synonymous with German Frers designs. The long solid-glass hull offers luxury accommodation space as well as the waterline length for fast ocean passages. The characteristic Frer’s bow makes easy going in a lively sea-state, and the wide reverse stern creates a palatial master stateroom, tremendous deck storage and easy access to the water while moored. Below the surface, the partial skeg supports a balanced rudder for nuanced steering feedback. Sailors may choose between a deep fin keel of 9’6” which delivers the best ocean passage performance, and a shoal keel of 6’7” for cruising through shallow archipelagos.
