Unicorn Boat | 44' Hylas 1988

The Hylas 44 has long been regarded as a serious offshore cruising yacht, combining German Frers’ respected design work with the substantial construction and craftsmanship of Queen Long Marine. Unicorn is a particularly strong example of the model, presented in excellent condition and extensively updated for continued bluewater use. With a solid, purposeful feel throughout, generous tankage, a cutter-rigged sail plan and a well-protected center cockpit, she was designed for sailors who intend to venture well beyond protected coastal waters. Her striking Flag Blue hull gives her a distinctive presence, and she has proven  herself through cruising Mexico, Baja and Southern California.

The interior is exceptionally well suited to extended cruising and liveaboard use. Her custom layout includes a spacious aft owner's cabin with the rare and hard to find island queen berth, a comfortable forward stateroom, a large navigation station with full-size chart table, and an inviting saloon finished with the warm teak joinery for which these yachts are known. The galley is arranged for practical use underway and includes a three-burner Force 10 stove, generous refrigeration, double stainless sinks and ample working space. Air conditioning, updated electric heads, a separate shower, renewed freshwater plumbing and onboard filtration further enhance her comfort for extended stays aboard. Her current owners also added an onboard custom fuel polishing system. 

Much of the value in Unicorn lies beneath the surface. In recent years she has received significant mechanical and systems upgrades, including a new Flexofold three-blade feathering propeller, prop shaft, Tides Marine dripless seal, cutlass bearing and coupler, along with a rebuilt transmission and clutch, updated fuel system, new exhaust components and renewed pumps and filtration. Her cruising systems are equally impressive, with 600Ah of lithium house capacity, 600 watts of solar, a Fischer Panda generator, Raymarine navigation electronics, radar, AIS, autopilot, a newer Lewmar windlass and a substantial Rocna anchoring setup. For a buyer looking for a heavily built, well-maintained center-cockpit yacht with true offshore credentials and the equipment to support extended cruising, this Hylas 44 Center Cockpit is an outstanding and excedingly opportunity in San Diego.
