Southerly Yachts Southerly 580
About this yacht
The Southerly Yachts Southerly 580 represents a sophisticated approach to bluewater cruising, where engineering precision meets practical luxury. At 17.73 meters, this sailing yacht combines the performance capabilities of a serious cruising sailboat with the refined comfort expected from a premium yacht. Her white gelcoat hull and deck feature Flexiteek decking that balances aesthetics with functionality underfoot. The twin rudder configuration delivers responsive handling across varied conditions, while bow and stern thrusters provide confident maneuvering in tight quarters. In-mast furling comes as standard, complemented by hydraulic headsail furling—a thoughtful combination that simplifies sail handling without compromising performance. The raised saloon design transforms life aboard, with panoramic glazing on three sides flooding the interior with natural light while maintaining commanding views of the surrounding seascape. This architectural choice creates an exceptionally bright and connected living space that blurs the boundary between interior comfort and the open water beyond. Electric davits streamline tender operations, while the integrated passarelle ensures elegant boarding in marinas. Below the surface refinements, MasterVolt lithium-ion batteries paired with C-Zone digital switching provide reliable, modern power management for extended cruising. Accommodating up to ten guests, the Southerly 580 caters to those seeking the freedom and adventure of serious offshore sailing, delivered through a yacht that understands the balance between capability and comfort. Whether pursuing distant horizons or enjoying coastal exploration, she offers a platform where ambition meets reliability.
