Broker's Comments

MATILDA is a standout Hylas 46 because the high-impact, high-cost categories that typically define "readiness" have already been addressed: rigging, sail inventory, power generation, watermaking, lithium capacity, and modern navigation. Add US Flag, Duty Paid status and ICW-friendly mast height, and she becomes an unusually versatile offshore cruiser for U.S.-based owners planning real use.
