2021 Hylas 57

Hylas 57  · Next-Generation Systems Yacht Vanishing Point was delivered approximately 18 months after Hull #2 arrived in the U.S., creating a rare opportunity: this yacht was completed after major design and systems advancements were identified, allowing her to leapfrog earlier boats in the series. As a result, Vanishing Point has a full suite of next-generation systems, many of which later informed updates across the model line—but none executed to this level or scale. Vanishing Point is industry recognized at the highest level: These awards underscore what sets Vanishing Point apart: a rare combination of performance, innovation, execution, and real-world usability. A True Systems Prototype — Not a Standard Production Boat Advanced Power & Energy Independence This system architecture fundamentally changes how the yacht is used—dramatically reducing generator runtime while increasing comfort, autonomy, and reliability. Ultra-Efficient, Whisper-Quiet Climate Control The air-conditioning system aboard Vanishing Point is a three-zone, marine inverter, variable-speed compressor system—exceptionally efficient and notably quiet. Can operate overnight on battery power Variable speed technology reduces cycling and noise Optimized for both tropical cruising and energy conservation ElectroSea ClearLine Protection Unique to Vanishing Point is the ElectroSea ClearLine system connected to the air-conditioning raw water intake. This system generates chlorine from seawater, continuously cleaning the condenser and preventing biological fouling—dramatically improving reliability and reducing maintenance in warm-water cruising grounds. Hot Water & Mechanical Improvements Significant mechanical layout improvements were made based on lessons learned from earlier hulls: Electronics — Continuously Updated The latest Raymarine continues to provide upgrades, ensuring the yacht remains at the forefront of navigation technology. Signature Cockpit Enclosure & Weather Protection Vanishing Point features a one-of-a-kind, owner-designed cockpit enclosure that blends seamlessly into the yacht’s architecture while delivering exceptional protection and ventilation. Aft, the yacht is equipped with a bespoke soft top supported by a carbon-fiber frame that retracts and extends from the aft edge of the hardtop. This system offers a rare blend of elegance, engineering, and usability—unmatched in the fleet. Three cabin two head interior featuring an aft master stateroom with centerline queen and private head with separate stall shower, forward VIP cabin with centerline berth, and a forward guest cabin with single bunk to starboard. The forward head with separate stall shower is accessible from both the forward VIP cabin and forward passageway for day head use. Includes a passageway galley to starboard and forward-facing navigation station to port. Interior Comforts and Amenities • Lee cloth and pad-eyes installed (3 lee cloths & 6 pad-eyes per berth
