Dream Catcher, is hull #1 of the infamous Hylas 46 line of blue water cruisers She is sloop rigged and comes with the 5'6" shoal draft keel. The owner has just completed a major refit to include replacing most of the boat's water pumps, interior and exterior varnish work, servicing of the Maxwell windlass, replacing all of the boats batteries, and the addition of a new furling genoa, and new bimini and dodger canvas.
Dream Catcher has a two stateroom interior layout that provides privacy for both her owners and guests. Her aft master suite includes a centerline queen, vanity, and a large hanging closet with ample storage. The master head, to port, includes a stall shower forward of the head. This Hylas 46 is a double pass-through design which offers a private aft owner's cabin with en-suite head. The passageway galley is positioned aft of the salon on the starboard side and includes top and front loading refrigerator and freezer as well as plenty of cupboard space.
The spacious salon is amidships taking advantage of the beam. She features a long settee to starboard, and a large "U" shaped settee with dinette to port which converts to a sleeping berth with filler cushions. There are two cabinets and a shelf outboard of each settee and spacious storage underneath and behind the backrests.
The galley is amidships to starboard and features a propane Princess stove and oven, Guardian 12V refrigerator and freezer, microwave oven, centerline stainless steel sink and lots of storage.
The guest cabin forward includes a double Pullman berth to port and private head with shower in the bow. This cabin is very bright and well ventilated due to the large opening hatch, stainless steel opening ports and dorade vents.
Cabin soles throughout the interior are teak and holly, finished with high gloss varnish. Bulkheads and furniture are faced with teak veneers in satin finish with extensive, finely fitted teak trim. Cabinet doors have teak louvers with varnish finish. Headliners throughout the vessel are of padded vinyl with teak trim. In the slightly raised salon, facing forward there are two fixed ports that allow more natural light into the cabin.
Hull & DeckThe hull of the Hylas 46 is completely hand laid solid fiberglass with 8 longitudinal stringers tied to each frame and bulkhead providing an unusually strong seamless monolithic structure in excess of A.B.S. standards. The keel is externally bolted lead using 12 solid stainless steel 1 3/8" bolts with backing plates. The distance between the rudder and keel is measured by design to provide excellent directional stability and balance. The semi-skegged rudder provides for a solid combination of strength, protection and performance. The bottom of the rudder is 6" higher than the low point of the keel providing protection for the rudder in the event of a grounding. Hylas built these boats with 2 epoxy barrier coats to avoid blistering.
The deck is fiberglass sandwich construction with balsa core. Solid GRP fiberglass in all areas of deck for deck fittings and stress areas. The deck is bonded to the hull with 3M 5200 epoxy and thru bolted every 5" with backing plates. Molded contrasting beige nonskid.
