Circumnavigation Proven, Extensively Refit, Turn Key and Ready to Cruise
Blue Pearl is a 2006 Hylas 54 Raised Salon, the flagship of the Hylas 54 line and as circumnavigation ready as any yacht on the market. Under her prior owners she completed the 2018 World ARC Rally, routinely finishing at the top of the fleet, and cruised extensively through the Caribbean and the Atlantic, including the ARC Europe to Bermuda, the Azores and Portugal, and the ARC+ from the Canary Islands and Cape Verde, before a major refit culminated in spring 2024 with a new Yanmar engine and new standing rigging. Her current owners purchased her in 2024 and have since cruised the Chesapeake, New England, Nova Scotia, Florida and the Bahamas over the past two seasons, adding a new Quantum mainsail, a taller dodger, a new bimini and enclosure, and a new Victron inverter/charger with an expanded lithium battery bank. Prior to listing she was gone through entirely by professionals in Palm Beach, Fort Pierce and Annapolis to ensure she is turn key for her next owner.
