The Hylas Yacht Owners Association site, originally launched in 2007, is the un-official website for Hylas yacht owners. The primary objective of the site is to bring together the community spirit of Hylas owners regardless of boat's condition, model, or boat age. Active participation from owners all around the world will benefit both the owners and perspective owners for years to come.

Hylas Discussion / Re: AIS Installation
« Last post by Sailsteady on November 02, 2020, 09:56:56 AM »Love my Vesper 8000 unit, especially because it gives me essentially a backup multifunction display when I pair it with my iPad. Since the Vesper has its own GPS unit, my Raymarine Axiom MFD could go out and I still have a full back up with electronic charting on the iPad. Lots of good uses for the unit.

Right now I've got a nice brown goo oozing out from where the winch handle goes in so I suspect the seals have been compromised and water is mixing with the grease still in the case! Oh joy!
Best,
Dan

Hylas Discussion / Re: Keel attachment H44, nuts on studs in the keel, or bolts ?
« Last post by Panama Red on October 30, 2020, 01:33:42 PM »On my 44, forward and aft bolts have nuts that are not resin covered. When doing a bottom paint job, I did not see any evidence of epoxy plugs on the keel.
Maybe the keel bolts need to be tightened. Is there water in the bilge?

I did this early in the year. Happy to answer questions or supply photos. DM with request or if you want to call. Was pretty straight-forward, if a bit messy with the grease on the kitchen table (leading to spousal complaints).
