This Hylas 47 is completely equipped and ready for long distance live aboard cruising. Never used in charter

She was bought by the current owner in 2011 and then brought to Chicago for installation of a new Selden Mast and new running rigging and new North Sails.
She has crossed the Atlantic twice. Passed through the Panama Canal and has sailed throughout the Pacific. She is both fast and comfortable.

This Hylas 47 is a fast, three stateroom cruiser designed in 1981 by Rod Stephens of the legendary Sparkman and Stephens firm. They are arguably the most well respected bluewater, three stateroom sailboat produced and is highly prized on the brokerage market. Her soft motion in a seaway, swift 200 nautical mile per day passages, and luxurious accommodations are unrivaled by yachts of a comparable vintage.

Layout
This Hylas 47 has a modern raked bow, slight sheer, and a “rocket ship” stern. The long keel is paired with a separate skeg-hung rudder arrangement that leads to a soft and balanced motion offshore. Her inboard mounted chainplates allow for ease of movement along the side decks as well as tight sheeting angles. She comes with a powerful cutter rig. The interior is in fine light teak with fantastic joinery work.

Construction
The hull is solid hand laid fiberglass while the deck is balsa or Airex cored and joined with the traditional inner flange joint. The ballast is a lead insert of 14,500 pounds encapsulated in the fiberglass keel

Under Sail
The 47's greatest strength is her sailing capabilities. The performance of these Stevens is legendary. The hull shape and keel-rudder configuration make them surprisingly stiff and fast boats, well-balanced in any condition with a smooth motion offshore. They are known to reel off 200 nautical miles days with ease

Dimensions
LOA: 47’ LWL: 37’ 9” Beam: 14’ 3”
Displacement: 32,000 Draft: 6’
