Discovery Southerly 42: Model Info

The compact long-range cruising yacht Southerly 42 is suitable for two or four cruisers and may be of interest to those who frequently cruise in water areas with lots of shoals and reefs.

Exterior and Interior Design

Unlike the larger models in the range, the yacht is designed by Rob Humphreys and is a cruiser with a quite classic silhouette and interior fillings to «»match the current trends in the sailing industry.

Amenities on board

The big salon offers a cozy cabin-company and a dining room for 6 persons. Thanks to the superstructure glazing, the salon has an excellent all-round view. Two opening hatches provide the interior of the yacht with natural ventilation. The linear galley has large work surfaces and is also equipped with a stainless steel fridge, freezer, double sink and stove. Two double cabins are equipped with their own bathrooms.

Features .

The modern, well-balanced housing provides a smooth ride and excellent speed both in passing winds and in navigating. Rotating keel gives unprecedented freedom and versatility. With the keel down, the yacht is stable and safe on the move. At the touch of a button, the keel can be raised and the draught reduced to just over 60 cm. This is ideal for exploring coastlines, small bays and inland waterways.

Swimming area

The yacht has a central sheltered cockpit, which is especially appreciated on sea cruises in regions with difficult weather conditions. At least to the North Atlantic, even to the coral reefs.
