Variable draught so you don't have to worry when sneaking into shallow anchorages. Under the waterline, the Southerly 54 has two steering nibs and a central skeg that protects the propeller and shaft.

The swivel keel was used on the first Southerly 33 in 1978, and there were many supporters of this concept. As many say, if you try a yacht with a variable draft, you will not want another. However, a fixed keel for Southerly 54 is still available as an option.
