Southerly 47

Overview
The Southerly 47 is designed as a capable cruising yacht, equally suited to close-quarters handling, inshore passages, offshore cruising and blue-water sailing. With a high cruising specification and straightforward sail handling, she is well suited to short-handed sailing by two people.

Sailing Performance and Handling
Her tall fractional rig, self-tacking jib and large mainsail deliver strong sailing performance, while the double headsail rig with overlapping genoa enhances versatility across a range of conditions. As with all Southerly yachts, semi-balanced twin rudders provide responsive steering and excellent directional stability.

Interior and Living Space
The sleek exterior styling continues below deck, where the interior creates a refined and spacious feel throughout. A large, raised saloon to port offers exceptional panoramic views, complemented by additional seating to starboard at a lower level. The raised navigation area provides excellent visibility when underway.
The open galley is positioned close to the companionway and is arranged for practical use at sea or in harbour, with generous work surfaces, stainless steel appliances and ample storage.

Accommodation
The spacious aft master cabin features a large centreline double berth, good headroom and generous storage, together with full ensuite facilities and a separate shower. Forward, the double cabin offers two long V-berths and ensuite shower facilities. A third midships cabin provides a good-sized single berth and convenient access to the forward heads across the passageway.
