Description
An experienced owner has cruised GYPSY around the Chesapeake and the East Coast for the past several years and has constantly been upgrading the systems aboard to make her a comfortable at sea and on the dock.
GYPSY has been well setup for exploring all of the popular cruising grounds. She is fitted with the shoal draft keel, drawing only 5.5', and an ICW friendly mast. Her sailplan is setup with a full batten Rolly Tasker Ocean Series mainsail with 3 reefs and a stack pack, this is a very durable and long lasting setup and as well gives the Hylas 46 the best performance vs in-mast furling. The genoa, also Rolly Tasker Ocean Series, is 140%, giving the power needed for light air and durability when the breeze is up. She is a cutter with a removable inner stay, the staysail is hank on, with a deck storage bag. This makes it very easy to deploy when needed and leave on deck and rigging for ocean passages. When cruising confined waters where there is a need to tack constantly, the inner stay can be pulled back so that the genoa can tack through easily. There is also an APS spinnaker with sock. This is a very preferable setup for cruising in offshore and inshore.
To keep things in shipshape the standing and running rigging, along with the genoa furler, were all replaced with new in the last three years. As well a carbon fiber whisker pole was added to further expand the sailing envelope. At deck level much of the sailing hardware and blocks have been replaced or upgraded. The decks and non-skid were also repainted and the hatch lenses replaced, GYPSY looks like a brand new Hylas 46!
Inside the interior has been kept in the best condition, it smells good, looks good, feels good. The cabin sole varnish was redone in 2018 and the look is incredible. Lighting has been upgraded to LED and saloon cushions were replaced this year.
On top of her tip-top condition she is also one of the most sought after blue water designs ever built. The Queen Long Marine made Hylas 46 was designed by the renowned German Frers to be a comfortable couples cruiser, with a center cockpit design, cutter rig, solid GRP hull, lead keel and partial skeg hung rudder. The strength, durability and performance are unmatched, which led to a production run of over two decades and over 60 hulls produced. Multiple examples have circumnavigated.
GYPSY is not only fully turn key (literally put on provisions and go to the Bahamas tomorrow for the winter) but she is also fully equipped to make that journey with the right systems, upgrades, and care put into her. This is truly a boat that will sell to the first person that looks at her.
