At nearly 70 feet LOA, she is the flagship of the Hylas line and was named Cruising World''s Boat of the Year for Full-Size Cruiser in 2008. The carbon fiber and epoxy construction keeps displacement manageable at just over 75,000 pounds while offering a stiff, capable platform for ocean passages. Available in deep-draft (9''1") and shoal-draft configurations, the Hylas 70 is built to semi-custom standards with extensive teak interiors and twin-wheel helm stations. She appeals to experienced cruising couples who want bluewater capability without sacrificing the fit and finish of a superyacht.
