Hylas 70 Centreboard Cruiser

AMANTE is the first Hylas 70 to become available on the brokerage market and offers a
prospective owner a virtually new and fully tested yacht without having to wait 18 months for
new delivery. Her owners have invested considerable time and energy into the equipment
specifications, design modifications and interior décor/styling to create a truly magnificent yacht.
Since her launch in 2007, AMANTE has proven to be a fast, safe and extremely comfortable
world cruiser with an excellent four cabin layout ideal for both private (in this case) or charter
use. She is new to the market with inspections highly recommended.

Hull
Solid hand-laid Twaron reinforced fiberglass hull using vinylester resins and isophthalic gel coat
with epoxy barrier coating. There is a watertight collision bulkhead aft of forepeak locker. In
2008 the hull was Awlgripped Stars & Stripes blue with clear coat, gold cove stripe, white boot
stripe and black bottom. There is a teak rubrail with stainless striker and six Lexan topside
windows.
Deck
Fiberglass with balsa core, white gelcoat and molded-in tan nonskid. "Scooped" transom with
molded-in steps, swim platform and built-in swim ladder. There is a transom garage door that
opens hydraulically for easy access to extensive storage space with custom shelving, along
with large corner lazerette lockers each side, accessible on the aft deck. On the foredeck, there
is a deep forepeak locker with line hangers and separate split chain locker forward.
Teak toe rails are bare with rounded edges for easy maintenance. All stainless deck hardware
including grab rails, six stainless hatches, numerous opening portholes and dorade vents, double
anchor rollers, genoa tracks, mooring cleats, chocks etc.
Cockpit
One of the many highlights of AMANTE’s design is the spacious cockpit with twin helm stations
for easy access from the aft deck and great visibility while steering. The cockpit seating was
customized by the owner to maximize seating for ten comfortably around a beautiful varnished
6’ teak table with built-in drink cooler.
The twin helms are designed for short-handed sailing, with all sail controls within easy reach.
Each station can be engaged independently and features customized back-lit panels (2009)
