Leading builder of world-class sailboats, Hylas Yachts introduced the #M44 power #yacht to U.S. boaters at the 2018 Palm Beach International Boat Show earlier this year. Constructed by Queen Long Marine in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, the Hylas #M44 continues a 40-year heritage offine boat building.  

A 65-year tradition of fine boat building in New Zealand has proven this particular designin both recreational and commercial markets.

DESIGNED FOR TODAY'S LIFESTYLE
From the luxurious interior to the spacious cockpit, the Hylas #M44 is designed fortoday's lifestyle. An unassuming bow flare compliments the fine forward entry and easy-planing hull. Built to travel big oceans or explore serene lakes, the #M44 slices through chop for a dry steady ride. Twin Yanmar8-cylinder 370 HP diesels amidship offer a top speed of nearly 30 knots while the 3 ft keel protects the running gear and enhances tracking.
 
The simple yet elegant interior layout is perfect for that day getaway or extended cruise. Large front and side windows, aft door and opening windows enhance airflow, lighting and scenic views. An al fresco dinner in the cockpit and the inside dinette both are served easily fromthe spacious aft galley between them.
