Description
Designed by German Frers and built by Queen Long Marine, the Hylas 44 has become one of the most sought after center cockpit cruisers. Her stunning full teak interior is warm and inviting while providing loads of storage for long distance cruising. Two staterooms, each with private head, make her comfortable for cruising with two couples plus additional berth in the salon with a settee pulls out for more comfort.
"Pigeon Toes IV" is a striking vessel. Her owners have continually upgraded her thru the years. Some of the interior upgrades were done in the early 2000's and many more were done as late as 2014 such as Quantum mainsail with Strong Track and 135% genoa, cockpit canvas with full enclosure, replacing the life lines as well as re-bedding all the stanchions, all new sea cocks and thru-hulls, and replacing all the standing rigging and much of the running rigging.
The Hylas 44 is a perfect center cockpit cruiser. Beautiful, elegant, fast, sea-kindly, easily handled, with clean, flowing lines. Capable of sailing around the world for two or weekend sailing with six. She shows superb quality and craftmanship.

The water has always been a part of my life since learning to sail aboard a Sailfish while vacationing in Chatham, Massachusetts. At twelve, I graduated to Penguins and 420’s at the Tred Avon Yacht Club in Oxford, Maryland. My parents always belonged to the Corinthian Yacht Club in Philadelphia and I often accompanied them on cruises aboard a Hinckley Bermuda 40 that we cruised in the Chesapeake.
Understanding banking after working 12 years for Loyola Savings and Loan of Maryland, I helped navigate the purchase of a 32’ Pearson Vanguard for a friend and taught him to sail. Loving the idea of sharing my passion for boating, I joined Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales (in what is now Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and Marina) in 1990 and worked as a broker for fifteen years.
In 1993, Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales became a dealer for Sabre and Back Cove Motor Yachts and I acquired an understanding and respect for powerboats. I worked closely with the boatyard commissioning new vessels and working as a liaison between new owners and the marina. I have an intimate understanding of the boat buying process - how to guide new owners through surveys, sea trials, registration, and documentation.
I love all boats and each one has its own quality. Though I would consider myself a traditionalist in boat design, I like what the new designs offer in comfort and ability.
When not talking boats, my husband (of 25 years) and I live in Easton, Maryland. My husband is the rigging supervisor at Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and our daughter works at the marina full time, having graduated from Washington College in 2020. She earned her Teaching Certification and is applying for a teaching position in English.
I am starting my 4th year as a broker with Brewer Yacht Sales and in addition to my office at Safe Harbor Zahniser’s in Solomon’s, Maryland I now have an office at Safe Harbor Oxford. This enables me to cover the territory from the Eastern Shore to Solomon’s Island and everything in between.
I look forward to speaking with you and sharing my passion for boats. Let me help you find the perfect yacht or support and guide you in the sale of your existing vessel!
