The presence of high engine hours on chartered Hylas 44's is especially troubling because of the difficulty of repowering. In 1990, Joseph Huang and Dick

Around 1998, Hylas introduced a German Frers 54-foot model. In 2000, they introduced a raised saloon model of the same 54-foot Frers hull design. During this period, Hylas cut ties with CYC and became unaffiliated with any charter boat operation. During the 2005 Caribbean 1500 rally from
