Overview
About this vessel
For the first time in Australia - a monohull that goes where others can't. Introducing the Southerly 480: a bespoke design redefining what's possible in luxury sailing. Renowned for their variable draft technology, Southerly Yachts combine bespoke craftsmanship with innovation, giving you access to Australia's diverse coastlines and blue water like never before. Now acquired by superyacht contractor Concept Yachts, Southerly brings race boat build standards and superyacht quality.
LIFTING KEEL TECHNOLOGY: With the keel up, it reduces the draft to just 1m (3'3" feet), with it down (3.12m), it acts as a deep keel for excellent windward performance, while its variable geometry also allows for trimming or full raising for optimal downwind sailing, offering flexibility for Australia's varied conditions.
BLUEWATER TO BEACH IN 30 SECONDS: The swing keel lifts up into the hull in just 30 seconds, giving you access to shallow anchorages, harbours, inland waterways, or beach the yacht on its grounding plate and step straight onto the sand. A yacht that can go where others cannot, nothing is off limits!
WORLD-CLASS CRAFTMANSHIP: The interior joinery is among the finest in its class, finished in solid Oak and marine-grade plywood as standard. Fabric selections are available from our curated interior options range.
"With our signature lifting keel technology, we offer not only unparalleled performance but also the versatility to explore even the most secluded of waters. Join our esteemed Southerly owners and experience the epitome of luxury sailing without limits." - Southerly Yachts
