The Hylas 57 (H57) is a 57-foot semi-custom bluewater cruising yacht designed by Bill Dixon of Dixon Yacht Design and built by Hylas Yachts at Queen Long Marine in Taiwan, beginning in 2020. Named Cruising World Boat of the Year in 2022, the H57 departed from the German Frers-designed Hylas 54 lineage with a fuller hull form, twin rudders, and a Solent rig with self-tacking jib and 140% genoa on powered Furlex units. The boat offers genuine three-cabin liveaboard space on a powerful, easily-driven hull that has logged multiple circumnavigations and Salty Dawg Rally passages since launch. Build quality, tankage, and offshore systems are in the passagemaker class, making the H57 a direct competitor to the Oyster 565 and Discovery 58.
