Details
Che Figata is an exceptional example of the Hylas 56, presented in a highly desirable 3-cabin / 2-head layout with shoal-draft keel, center cockpit, generous owner’s suite, and extensive bluewater systems. Her specification is particularly strong, with notable features including a Super Jet Black Alexseal hull, Side-Power bow thruster, electric furling mainsail and genoa, robust B&G electronics package, Lithium house battery system, solar, Watt&Sea hydrogenerator, Northern Lights generator, Spectra watermaker, updated canvas, substantial ground tackle, Simpson electric davits, and a comprehensive safety package. Recent updates and upgrades throughout the yacht further distinguish her from many similarly aged cruising yachts.
What truly sets Che Figata apart is her ownership history and proven offshore pedigree. She has just returned from a circumnavigation with her highly experienced second owners, who completed the vast majority of the miles doublehanded. That kind of voyage demands a yacht that is safe, reliable, manageable, and comfortable over long distances, and Che Figata has been equipped and maintained accordingly. Her owners have spared no expense in her care, upkeep, and modernization, continually improving the yacht with the mindset of experienced sailors who depended on her across oceans.
For buyers seeking a proven, properly equipped, and thoughtfully upgraded bluewater cruising yacht, Che Figata represents a rare opportunity. She combines the renowned Hylas 56 platform with recent circumnavigation experience, extensive cruising equipment, and a level of stewardship that should be immediately evident to serious offshore sailors. This is not simply a well-optioned Hylas 56; she is a fully realized passagemaker with the systems, layout, and history to support ambitious cruising plans from day one.

Warm teak joinery, upgraded soft goods, premium countertops, and carefully integrated handholds create an interior that is both elegant at anchor and secure underway.
