Southerly 420

The Southerly 420 has all the elements you would expect of an ocean-going yacht: the tried and tested variable draft swing keel, twin helm rudder arrangement, and a smartly designed deck layout with a comfortable cockpit and cockpit arch for the main traveler. The versatile rig features twin headsails, an in-mast ICW-friendly (60’ 7”) furling mainsail and an integrated bow sprit. The opportunities are endless! From shallow anchorages that others can’t access to drying out on the beach or a canal passage to the Mediterranean. A key benefit of the Southerly variable draft swing keel is the shallow draft opportunities and the enhanced performance from a deep, high aspect ratio keel when fully lowered. The yacht draws 2’ 9” with the keel up and 8’ 11” with the keel down. In practice, the yacht is stiffer due to the improved righting moment, carrying her sail area better than others, and carving her way efficiently to windward in a seaway. The Southerly 420 is comfortable under sail or at anchor. Enjoy attractive interior styling, a raised salon with unparalleled views, a linear galley, a dedicated nav station, two comfortable private cabins, and two heads. The Southerly 420 is a well-rounded yacht that allows one to explore where others can’t.
