Differing from the Frers Hylas hulls which have flatter bottoms and deep fin keels the Hylas 47 hull designed by Sparkman & Stephens features a carefully crafted under body with a long fin keel, sleek stern, and high chin bow. Her low profile cabin trunk make her aesthetically pleasing. Strong and well built by Queen Long she has nine fore and aft stringers, twelve transverse floor timbers for strength, and a one piece stainless I-beam with four floors providing a strong platform for the mast step. The hull shape and keel-rudder configuration make her surprisingly stiff and fast. She is well balanced in a variety of sea states. The motion at sea is pleasant and assuring in heavy weather.
