Hylas 57

By Sandy Parks · On December 20, 2019

The Hylas 57 was designed by Bill Dixon and is a great-looking modern take on the traditional Hylas concept. The new 57 is a center-cockpit, raised-deck saloon sloop like the venerable Hylas 46, 49, 54 and 70 but with a real difference.
The 57 has a plumb bow with a bow sprit, a squared off transom and a fairly flat sheer line that all combine to give the boat a powerful, modern and purposeful appearance. The raised deck over the saloon has a low profile and has been given a wrap-around window that looks very cool, like a set of futuristic sunglasses. The boat has high topsides to provide the interior volume so the addition of the huge rectangular windows breaks up the look of the slab sides and adds a ton of natural light to the saloon and cabins.
