COYOTE, a brilliant German Frers design is the last Hylas 42' built. She is fast yet with a wonderful motion offshore due to her fine entry, lack of flat sections and almost 50% ballast.
German Frers, a second generation Naval Architect, started his career with Sparkman & Stevens. Since the mid eighties he has continued to design both Hylas and Nautor's Swan yachts among others. With the Hylas 42' Frers has met the challenge of creating a centerline aft cabin in an aft cockpit configuration that is both beautiful and practical. Queen Long Marine's joinery and woodwork is second to none anywhere in the world.
Magnificent design, quality materials, superb craftsmanship equals a truly beautiful boat. FORM does FOLLOWS FUNCTION in this great Yacht.
