Southerly 38 for charter

Manufacturer Provided Description

The Southerly 38 boasts an impressive sail plan; the tall fractional rig, combines a large mainsail and a self tacking furling jib for powerful windward performance. For off wind sailing the furling cruising chute can be flown.

The spacious cockpit offers comfortable seating around both helm stations with full instrumentation.

The mainsheet track is located on the pilot house coachroof with control lines fed back to both helm stations, allowing the yacht to be easily managed. The steering is direct with minimum backlash with semi-balanced twin rudders to give instantly responsive steering and precise directional stability. The forward part of the cockpit is wide with generous seating for socialising. A teak cockpit table with fold down leaves offers dinette facilities, whilst also providing a foot brace and hand rail, when the yacht is heeled.

The Southerly 38 features the highly developed Swing Keel which gives the freedom and versatility to sail in almost any waters.  With the keel lowered, the variable draught of 2.59 metres makes for fast, serious blue water cruising. At the touch of a button the keel can be raised to give a shallow draught of just 0.82 metres - perfect for sailing in shallow water.

Once you step inside, you enter a light and airy interior. There is well appointed accommodation with good headroom throughout. The saloon seating area provides a focal point for guests, permitting comfortable dining. The galley provides a practical work area to prepare and cook meals. 

The well equipped and functional navigation station is ideal for passage planning and navigation.

The aft cabin is a particular feature on a yacht of this size, and boasts a large centre-line double berth with seating to each side, plenty of stowage and en-suite facilities.

The forward cabin has good headroom with double berth and en-suite facilities.
