Magic Hour is one of those boats that only seems to improve with age. We originally helped Magic Hour become a Canadian Registered vessel in 2007. Then again in 2014, she found a new home with a new set of owners in BC. Since 2014 she has been fresh water moored and has cruised the BC coast extensively, including one Vancouver Island circumnavigation. This stunning and extremely well-equipped 1999 Hylas 49 has benefitted from each of her previous owners and will be sure to exceed the expectations of her next set of owners. Are you seeking a proven and sought-after Sparkman & Stephens center-cockpit design? Do you want a go-anywhere, easy-to-handle yacht that is perfectly set up for extended, off-the-grid cruising around the PNW and beyond? View the extensive list of upgrades to Magic Hour, and I feel you will have found your next boat. And yes, there is NO IMPORT DUTY APPLICABLE to Canadian buyers.
