About sailboat yachts.

Sailboat Characteristics: The term sailboat covers a wide variety of sailing craft, each with its own characteristics and styles. They come in all sizes from day-sailers and other boats less than 11 feet long to the dinghy, larger single-masted sailboats, two-masted boats called yawls, and large yachts. Boats used for racing are specially designed for speed and maneuverability, while sailboats of all sizes that have onboard quarters for passengers and crew are sturdier in design with more details for comfort. Most modern sails are made of Dacron, a polyester fiber. Sails fall into two major categories and then into many subclasses. The two major categories are square and triangular sails.   Sailboat Construction & Hull Design: Most sailboats have displacement hulls, allowing them to travel more smoothly through the water, and are usually made of fiberglass, metal, or wood. While monohull sailboats are more traditional and far more common, there are many performance advantages to catamaran and trimaran sailboats, including faster speeds and more stability. A monohull relies on ballast for stability. Catamarans and trimarans gain stability from the distance between their multiple hulls. Some of the most popular sailboat options are Beneteau , Oyster , Privilege , Fountaine Pajot , Leopard , Jeanneau , Catalina and Marlow-Hunter .   Sailboat Power Options: Sailboats differ from other types of boats in that they are propelled partly or entirely by wind; they use sails to transform the power of the wind into power that moves the boat through the water.

Many sailboats also carry inboard or outboard diesel-powered motors in the event they are becalmed (motionless from lack of wind) or their sailors simply want a speedier return to port.

Hylas 47 sailing

The brokerage team at Wellington Yacht Partners has listed the 1988 Hylas 47 Onegin for sale with an asking price of $195,000. 

The Hylas 47 is a center-cockpit sailing yacht renowned for its combination of performance, comfort and seaworthiness. Designed by the legendary Sparkman & Stephens and built by Queen Long Marine, this model has a well-deserved reputation as a capable bluewater cruiser.

Hylas 47 stateroom

Onegin ‘s spacious interior features a three-stateroom layout, offering ample accommodations for guests and crew. The master cabin, located aft, has a centerline island berth, a comfortable settee and an ensuite head with a vanity and full-sized mirror. The main salon is a welcoming space with comfortable seating, teak cabinetry and a dining table. A double bunk guest cabin is located forward to port, while the guest head with a separate shower is opposite. The spacious V-berth, also forward, offers plenty of storage options.

Hylas 47 sail

The hull design features a deep forefoot, long fin keel, and full skeg hung rudder, which provides excellent stability and seaworthiness. This, combined with its balanced directional performance and speed, makes Onegin an ideal choice for both coastal cruising and bluewater voyages.  

Hylas 47 cockpit

With a ballast-to-displacement ratio of approximately 43 percent, this Hylas 47 offers exceptional stability and resistance to rolling, making her a comfortable and safe vessel for long-distance sailing. The shallow draft of 6 feet allows Onegin to navigate shallow waters, such as those found in the Bahamas, while its air draft of 64 feet also makes it suitable for cruising along the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW). 

Onegin has always been privately owned and has never been chartered, ensuring a well-maintained and cared-for vessel. The boat has been cruised extensively by its experienced owners, exploring the diverse waters of Europe, South America and the Caribbean. This cruising history demonstrates her versatility and seaworthiness, making it well-suited for both coastal cruising and long-distance voyages. 

Hylas 47 nav station

Upgrades include all new standing rigging (2019), new electronics including autopilot (2023), a new tender and outboard (2020), and a completely rebuilt Yanmar diesel engine (2019).   

Onegin is currently located in Newport, Rhode Island, and is ready to embark on its next adventure with a new owner. Her combination of classic design, modern amenities, and recent upgrades make her an ideal choice for those seeking a reliable, comfortable, and capable bluewater cruiser.

37m sailing yacht Alexa of London for sale

37m sailing yacht Alexa of London sold

The 37.5-metre gaff-rigged sailing yacht Alexa of London has been sold with Alastair Shove of Carrswood Yachts and Mark Van Geldern of TWW Yachts who introduced the buyer.

Built in steel in Poland at Gdansk Yb in 1992, the gaff cutter has been meticulously maintained by her long-standing crew and cherished by her present owners who have cruised extensively.

Her current owner had an interior designer create a "New England, clean-cut, simple style throughout", the broker said, which includes white and navy furnishings with white panelled walls. She sleeps nine guests in four cabins, each equipped with opening hull ports, with quarters for a crew of five.

Alexa of London has plenty of deck space for sunpads and traditional teak deck chairs that can be used even while cruising under sail. A 10-seater dining table can be set up on the foredeck under a large awning, while a secondary table is positioned in the cockpit aft, ideal for enjoying breakfast al fresco.

A side boarding staircase/platform can be lowered for swimming and water activities or for guests boarding from her Williams tender.

The 116GT sailing yacht for sail has a top speed of 11 knots under power and similar under her powerful gaff rig (comprised of a main sail, flying jib, inner jib and staysail, courtesy of North Sails and serviced annually.) Meanwhile, her keel lifts so draught can be reduced from seven metres under sail to 3.5 metres when anchoring in shallow waters or entering a port.

The vessel is commercially compliant for charters, as long as within 150 nautical miles of a safe haven, according to the Malta Charter Code, and has proved to be a popular charter yacht with many repeat clients. 

Lying in Palma, Spain, Alexa of London was asking €2,959,000 with VAT paid.
