Hylas 60 – SAIL 2020 Best Boats Nominee

Bring on the monohulls! In a world increasingly given over to multihull sailing, SAIL magazine’s “Best Boats” class of 2020 brings with it a strong new group of keelboats, including everything from luxury cruisers nipping at the heels of their mega-yacht brethren to a number of great-looking new performance boats.

Nominated in the Cruising Monohulls category is the soon-to-be-launched German Frers designed Hylas 60

“After a brief hiatus, Hylas Yachts International is back up to speed again, as is evident in the all-new Hylas 60. Designed by German Frers, the boat is intended to serve as a fast bluewater cruiser that it is still well within the limits of a shorthanded crew. To this end the boat is equipped with a fin keel and bulb, an impressive 90ft air draft (no ICW transits for this big girl!), twin spade rudders and a svelte-looking fixed sprit. At the same time, the Hylas 60 remains very much a cruising boat, with a fairly deep forefoot and sufficient displacement to not only promote a seakindly motion in a seaway but provide that much more storage and accommodation space belowdecks.”
