Overview

About this vessel

SHAIMA is a 2017 Hylas 63, delivered in April 2017, commissioned by her original owner and skipper for serious world voyaging. Designed by German Frers and built by Hylas Yachts / Queen Long Marine, SHAIMA represents the modern Hylas approach at its best: powerful offshore performance, deep-sea comfort, serious construction, and a level of semi-custom execution rarely found in production cruising yachts.

What separates SHAIMA from most bluewater cruisers is not only her specification, but her proof of purpose. Over approximately nine years she has completed an estimated 80,000 nautical miles, including high-latitude passages, remote cruising grounds, and demanding ocean work. Her owner's detailed operating logs, maintenance history, and disciplined refit program give a future buyer an unusually clear picture of the yacht's use, systems, upgrades, and care.

The scale of that voyage is unusually well documented. SHAIMA's owner-maintained logbooks record approximately 80,752 nautical miles, 11,893 hours of actual sailing, 1,462 days at sea, 201 marinas, 388 anchorages, and an overall average speed of 6.8 knots. Her logged history reaches far beyond a typical Caribbean or coastal cruising resume, with documented campaigns through the Americas, North Atlantic, Mediterranean, South, West, North & East Pacific, high latitudes, Patagonia, and Antarctica.

SHAIMA was conceived as a short-handed passagemaker. Her cutter rig, hydraulic in-mast furling with hydraulic outhaul, hydraulic headsail furlers, electric primary and mainsheet winches, bow and retractable stern thrusters, cockpit protection, large fuel capacity, watermaker, lithium house bank, solar, Starlink, and dual-voltage electrical architecture are all aligned around safe, efficient, self-sufficient cruising by a small crew.

A major highlight is SHAIMA's return to the Hylas yard in Kaohsiung in 2024 for an in-depth refit. This is a uniquely meaningful point in her story. The yacht was brought back to the builder, dismasted, inspected, and attended to by the same ecosystem that understands Hylas construction best. Work included keel bolt inspection and tightening, carpentry repairs and modifications, a long list of smaller details, and renewed interior and exterior upholstery and cushions.

For a buyer seeking a genuine global cruising yacht, SHAIMA is not a dock queen with a theoretical offshore pedigree. She is a proven Hylas 63 with real ocean miles, a thoughtful owner-engineer behind her specification, and the systems, documentation, spares, and operational history to support continued world cruising.
