Exterior and interior design

The line of «large» Southerly was designedEd Dubois.. The handwriting of the maestro is recognizable in everything: the Southerly 540 has the features of a superyacht. The vertical and horizontal portholes have been added to the signature circular interior glazing. Accordingly, the aft master suite has excellent lighting and a chic interior. The central cockpit is divided into zones: a work cockpit, with two control posts and a gigaccoat winch, and a rest area where guests are isolated from the gear. There are also two tripods for quick change of sails, an optional gennaker and an impressive grotto with a twist in the geek (option: twist in the mast).
