The Hylas 49 stands as a definitive benchmark in the world of blue water cruising, representing the refined evolution of a hull form that began with the Stevens 47 and the Hylas 47. Designed by the legendary firm Sparkman & Stephens and meticulously constructed by Queen Long Marine, the 49 was introduced in the early 1990s to provide a more modern, performance-oriented extension of its predecessors. By lengthening the stern to incorporate a functional "sugar scoop" transom and refining the interior volume, Hylas created a vessel that feels significantly larger than its 49-foot designation suggests. According to the Hylas Yachts official legacy gallery, the model was designed specifically for short-handed couples who refuse to compromise on speed or safety during long-distance passages.
