Built with a solid lead keel and a massive skeg-protected rudder, the hull is engineered to withstand the rigors of global circumnavigation while maintaining a low center of gravity for stability. The center cockpit design provides a secure and elevated position for the helmsman, while the wide side decks and high lifelines ensure safe movement forward in heavy seas. The interior is distinguished by its handcrafted teak joinery and a spacious full-beam master suite located aft, providing a quiet sanctuary away from the main living areas. Large deck saloon windows flood the galley and social spaces with natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere typically found on much larger vessels. With its high fuel and water capacities and a hull optimized for balanced performance, the 48 is a premier choice for serious cruisers seeking a long-range maritime home. A new build typically requires an investment of 1 million US dollars. #Hylas48 #BlueWaterCruiser #SailingYacht #HarbourMasters
