Southerly 57 RS

• By Beth A. Leonard
• Updated: February 16, 2011

Every boat consists of a series of compromises, but some designs manage to strike a balance in which far more is gained than given up. Since 1978, Northshore Yachts, in Chichester, England, has been building high-quality semicustom, variable-draft sailboats that deliver, as the company’s literature puts it, “deep-draft performance and shallow-draft freedom.” Its new flagship, the Southerly 57RS, brings together Northshore’s swing-keel technology and designer Ed Dubois’ superyacht styling and sensibility to create a 58-foot bluewater luxury yacht that can be sailed shorthanded across an ocean and then parked within wading distance of the beach.

Northshore Yachts has sold more than 900 variable-draft Southerlies in the past three decades, incorporating swing-keel technology into ever-larger sailboats. The underbody on the 57RS consists of twin canted rudders and a 7,385-pound cast-iron keel that retracts completely into a heavy-duty keel box set in a grounding plate that provides an additional 11,794 pounds of ballast. With the keel all the way up, the boat can sit on this plate and a centerline skeg that protects the propeller and keeps the rudders safely off the bottom. A hydraulic ram controlled by a button positions the keel anywhere from fully retracted to fully extended. If the keel hits something, it swings clear of the obstacle without damaging the ram. With 10 feet 6 inches of maximum draft, the boat sails well to within 30 degrees of the apparent wind but can still sneak in front of all the other yachts in an anchorage to anchor in 3 feet 6 inches of water.

While Northshore has plenty of experience with swing-keel technology, this is its first 50-foot-plus design and its first collaboration with naval architect Ed Dubois. Designing a boat in the 55- to 65-foot range can be tricky as some couples will operate the boat themselves and others will hire professional crew. While maintaining the overall styling introduced by Rob Humphreys in the 42RST and 49-foot models, Dubois has brought together a sensible sail plan that can be managed by a couple, design details and amenities normally found only on much larger yachts, and a choice of interiors to meet different owners’ requirements.

The 57RS has plenty of sail area to drive its 55,000-pound displacement. The double-headed rig consists of a 990-square-foot, full-batten mainsail and two furling headsails, one at the stem and the other just aft. The self-tacking blade jib on the solent, or inner, stay makes for easy singlehanded short-tacking up a channel or into an anchorage, while the 140-percent genoa on the headstay powers the boat to windward in moderate conditions. Offshore, unfurl both sails and pole out the blade jib for easy downwind miles; when the wind goes light, set the 2,000-square-foot asymmetric gennaker from the retractable sprit. While it takes a bit of time for that much displacement to start rolling in light air, once moving, the boat slips along through short chop without a hitch. In 7 to 10 knots of true wind, the Southerly 57RS sailed at 6 knots to within 35 degrees apparent with the keel down, and the speed increased to 7 knots when we cracked off to 70 degrees apparent. The 990-square-foot mainsail is available with in-mast or in-boom furling as well as in a conventional, full-batten setup.

Down below, Dubois has created luxurious spaces on different levels that function equally well for a couple or a crowd. The raised seating area over the keel box in the center of the boat allows a party of 10 to see out the large ports while lounging around the dinner table. Professional crew can take their meal in the small “breakfast nook” opposite the galley that doubles as a computer workstation. Dubois has designed in spaces for superyacht amenities like a dishwasher and trash compactor in a galley with enough room for four people to work. The different levels in the boat do make for a choppy, up-and-down traffic flow, though: from the galley up to the main saloon, across the main saloon and down to the base of the companionway, up the companionway steps to the cockpit. To some this could be annoying when trying to serve a big meal in the cockpit.

Dubois hasn’t compromised on the essentials for safe offshore sailing. Bluewater details include clean side decks with molded-in handgrips along the coachroof within easy reach all the way to the mast, dorades for heavy-weather ventilation, an optional dinghy garage for proper offshore stowage, and, at the base of the companionway, a commodious nav station to port and a head with a wet locker to starboard. But he’s also provided flexibility with three different layouts. Owner-operator couples with coastal aspirations will probably trade the dinghy garage for the splendid aft master suite; those with professional crew or frequent guests will find the three-cabin layout more to their liking. The combination of the dinghy garage and four real sea berths in the four-cabin layout will appeal to owners dreaming of long offshore passages.

The double headsail rig should be great offshore, but with two furlers forward of the windlass, two anchor rollers, and the optional retractable sprit, the bow platform felt a bit crowded to me. I also felt it’d be difficult to fit two anchors up there. Additionally, I found the systems throughout our test boat to be complex and access tight in some areas. However, according to Claire Horsman of Northshore, the systems on our test boat reflect a high level of customer customization. “Other examples of the 57RS aren’t as complex nor do they have any access issues,” she said.

Still, the Southerly 57RS will widen the horizons of cruising sailors by allowing them to explore the interface between land and water without giving up offshore safety and performance.

Southerly 57 RS

Southerly 57 RS is a 58 ′ 1 ″ / 17.7 m monohull sailboat designed by Ed Dubois and built by Northshore Yachts starting in 2011.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Sail Areas Mainsail: 92 m²/990 sq ft Self Tacking Jib: 59 m²/635 sq ft Furling Genoa: 104 m²/1119 sq ft Asymmetric Gen: 188 m²/2,024 sq ft

Fixed Ballast: 5,000 kg Keel: 3,350 kg.

Later renamed SOUTHERLY 590.

Specifications

Sail Magazine Excerpt

"One day you might be power-reaching across an ocean, logging double-digit speeds under a massive A-sail set on a retracting bowsprit. On another day you may be tacking effortlessly up a narrow channel, putting the helm over and watching the self-tacking jib slam across its track, enjoying the windward bite and responsive steering of a deep-drafted performance cruiser. Or you may have nosed up to a beach, the boat sitting upright on the hard sand as the tide recedes, your children playing in the shadow of the sleek hull.

If you own a Southerly 57RS all this and more is possible, which is why we had no hesitation in singling this boat out from a strong group of contenders. Designed by Ed Dubois and built in Britain by Northshore Yachts, the 57RS is the flagship of a line of strong, seaworthy, and well-crafted variable-draft sailboats. It is a bluewater-capable cruiser with a difference."

The interior of Soul Kitchen is open, light, and elegant, with attractive teak joinery and polished stainless-steel fittings. The yacht’s interior accommodations include a lovely, raised salon with large deck salon windows, a raised nav station, a spacious aft cabin with a dedicated head, a breakfast nook adjacent to the galley, a guest cabin with two bunks, a large forward cabin with a center line berth, and a forward head.

Although you are inside the yacht, your horizons are expanded with large deck salon windows allowing you to enjoy panoramic views from the raised salon that are normally only available on deck!

Adjacent to the galley is a nook with seating, a table, and a glass cabinet. The combined galley and nook offer a second gathering area that adjoins the salon, expanding the feeling of space and encouraging conversation.

The large owner’s cabin is aft of the salon and entered from the starboard side. There is a centerline queen berth with a nightstand on either side. To port is a full-size settee with back cushions. Several windows enhance the space in the owner’s cabin to port and starboard. There are also opening ports and a large overhead hatch over the berth. There are cabinets, shelving, hanging lockers, and drawers for storage. Just forward of the settee is a vanity with a mirror and seating. Opposite the bed is a TV.

The aft head is spacious and nicely appointed with attractive joinery, Corian counters, and a large separate shower with a teak seat. A beautiful stainless steel and glass shower door separates the shower from the vanity and toilet area. The head is accessible via a door between the salon and the shower, which is convenient when removing wet foul weather gear, and a door between the aft cabin and the head.

There are two guest cabins, and a guest head forward of the galley. To starboard is a cabin with two single bunks and a seat. Each bunk has a lee cloth and a reading light. There are two drawers and a large hanging locker.

The primary forward cabin is very inviting, with plenty of natural light. It has a comfortable centerline bed and two seats. Storage is available in large drawers under the bed, outboard cabinets, and large lockers on either side of the cabin.

Southerly Variable Draft Swing Keel

The Southerly 57RS has stout twin-canted rudders, a skeg-protected prop, bow and stern thrusters, and the iconic Southerly variable draft swing keel. The robust variable draft swing keel allows deep draft performance (10’ 6” down), precise directional stability, shallow draft freedom (3’ 6” up), and the capability to dry out completely upright in tidal areas.

With the keel up, the boat can sit on the grounding plate and a centerline skeg that protects the propeller and keeps the rudders safely off the bottom. A hydraulic ram controlled by a button positions the keel anywhere from fully retracted to fully extended. If the keel hits something, it swings clear of the obstacle without damaging the ram. With 10 feet 9 inches of maximum draft, the boat sails well to within 30 degrees of the apparent wind but can still sneak in front of all the other yachts in an anchorage to anchor in 3 feet 6 inches of water.

The Southerly swing keel has been tried and tested for over 45 years by 900+ owners worldwide since it was launched in 1978. The keel is a cast iron aerofoil fin pivoted at the leading edge with a hydraulic hoist. The pivot bearing is in a substantial cast iron grounding plate. The aerofoil sections of the keel have been calculated to optimize the lift characteristics; this ensures excellent windward performance and keeps the surface area low for minimum drag in light air.

The cast iron grounding plate has several functions. It serves as fixed ballast, provides the pivot point for the keel, acts as transverse stiffening in the keel area, and protects the bottom of the boat. The pivot bosses are at the forward end of the keel slot and are an integral part of the casting. The swing keel is then fitted, resulting in a fully matched assembly. The aft end of the keel slot has stops that engage with corresponding lugs on the keel to limit downward travel. The grounding plate and swing keel assembly are bolted into a fiberglass recess, and the recess and the keel box are an integral part of the hull molding. The hull layup in this area is additionally reinforced. The swing keel is raised and lowered by a hydraulic ram connected to the trailing edge of the keel by a Spectra rope pennant. The hydraulic pump is either operated manually or electrically.

Sails and Rigging

With over 2,000 square feet of sail area (main and genoa) the Southerly 57RS has plenty of power! The Solent double-headed rig consists of an electric in-boom furling mainsail and two electric furling headsails, one at the stem and the other just aft. The self-tacking blade jib on the inner stay makes for easy singlehanded short-tacking up a channel or into an anchorage, while the 140-percent genoa on the headstay powers the boat to windward in moderate conditions. Offshore, unfurl both sails and pole out the blade jib for easy downwind miles; when the wind goes light, set an asymmetric from the retractable bow sprit.

Written by Mike Smith

The Dubois designed Southerly 57 RS sailing yacht is the flag ship of the Southerly range. Dubois Yacht Design has taken the essential elements of the Southerly concept – which are a variable draught and great cruising accommodation – and added their successful racing hull form design experience and luxury superyacht knowledge.

The Southerly 57 RS is innovative in design, has contemporary styling and powerful sailing performance. In addition the sailboat has superior build quality, which combined with a luxurious interior makes the hallmarks of the new Southerly 57RS yacht.

She was designed for easy handling and the Southerly 57 RS can accordingly be sailed by just two people. She also offers further easy of handling a practicality as her standard specification includes a unique Swing Keel for deep draught performance, yet at the touch of a button, the keel can be raised for navigating shallower waters. The yacht’s hull is characterised by a long waterline, fine entry and beam carried aft to ensure the highest degree of performance, comfort, stability and safety. Contact Dubois Yacht design or Northshore Yachts for more information on their award winning sailing yacht.

As an option, the fold down transom door, discreetly hides garaging for a Williams Turbojet 285. The push button system allows easy deployment and recovery of the tender. The interior layout of two double cabins aft accommodates the garaging.

The Southerly 57RS is supplied with CE certification and is built to EU specification and conforms to RCD, design category A. The hull is guaranteed against osmosis for 5 years from the date of manufacture.

Southerly – 57 RS

Home » Yachts » Southerly – 57 RS

Innovative design, contemporary styling, powerful sailing performance, superior build quality, and luxurious accommodation are all hallmarks of the Southerly 57RS. The Southerly 57RS was designed by Ed Dubois and the Southerly Yachts design team to be a safe and elegant world cruising yacht that can be handled by two. It is a substantial and powerful yacht that efficiently manages rough conditions and takes full advantage of the Southerly variable draft swing keel. The Southerly 57RS delivers the flexibility of a deep draft (10’ 6”) for powerful sailing performance and precise directional stability and a shallow draft (3’ 6”) for exploring many inaccessible coastlines and inland waterways.

The yacht has twin wheels, twin rudders, a robust cast iron ground plate, a variable draft swing keel, a Seldon carbon fiber mast with rod rigging, a FurlerBoom electric mainsail furling system, two headsails with electric furling, a retractable bow sprit, and electric winches in the cockpit.

The attractive interior features high-quality teak joinery and abundant natural light. There are three cabins, two heads, a raised salon, a raised navigation station, a galley, and a breakfast nook.

Recent improvements include a new 150 HP Yanmar engine and a complete bottom job, including soda blasting the bottom, grounding plate, keel, re-caulking the grounding plate, and applying Coppercoat antifouling paint.

Expert artisans built Soul Kitchen to the highest standards at Northshore Shipyard in Itchenor, West Sussex, England

The interior of Soul Kitchen is open, light, and elegant, with attractive teak joinery and polished stainless-steel fittings. The yacht’s interior accommodations include a lovely, raised salon with large deck salon windows, a raised nav station, a spacious aft cabin with a dedicated head, a breakfast nook adjacent to the galley, a guest cabin with two bunks, a large forward cabin with a center line berth, and a forward head.

Although you are inside the yacht, your horizons are expanded with large deck salon windows allowing you to enjoy panoramic views from the raised salon that are normally only available on deck! The spacious salon features a dining table with comfortable seating to port. The dining table has two folding extension leaves, and it lowers with the push of a button so the settee can be converted into a large berth. To starboard, there are two comfortable chairs with a table in between. The salon windows are fitted with shades, and the overhead deck hatches have screens and shades.

The raised navigation area is conveniently located at the base of the companionway on the port side. You can see through the salon windows directly outside while seated in the comfortable captain’s chair. The nav area includes a desk and houses the primary electrical panel and electronics.

The galley is one of the highlights of the yacht! It is forward of the salon and a couple of steps down. It has ample storage, generous counter space, and high-end stainless steel appliances, including a Frigoboat wine cooler, a large front opening refrigerator and freezer, a four-burner stove with oven, a microwave, a Miele espresso/coffee maker and a Splendide washer/dryer.

Adjacent to the galley is a nook with seating, a table, and a glass cabinet. The combined galley and nook offer a second gathering area that adjoins the salon, expanding the feeling of space and encouraging conversation.

The large owner’s cabin is aft of the salon and entered from the starboard side. There is a centerline queen berth with a nightstand on either side. To port is a full-size settee with back cushions. Several windows enhance the space in the owner’s cabin to port and starboard. There are also opening ports and a large overhead hatch over the berth. There are cabinets, shelving, hanging lockers, and drawers for storage. Just forward of the settee is a vanity with a mirror and seating. Opposite the bed is a TV.

The aft head is spacious and nicely appointed with attractive joinery, Corian counters, and a large separate shower with a teak seat. A beautiful stainless steel and glass shower door separates the shower from the vanity and toilet area. The head is accessible via a door between the salon and the shower, which is convenient when removing wet foul weather gear, and a door between the aft cabin and the head.   

There are two guest cabins, and a guest head forward of the galley. To starboard is a cabin with two single bunks and a seat. Each bunk has a lee cloth and a reading light. There are two drawers and a large hanging locker.

The primary forward cabin is very inviting, with plenty of natural light. It has a comfortable centerline bed and two seats. Storage is available in large drawers under the bed, outboard cabinets, and large lockers on either side of the cabin.

The forward head with a separate shower is on the port side. It is shared by both guest cabins and accessible via two doors. One door opens directly into the primary forward cabin. Corian counters, mirrored cabinet doors, and a separate shower with a stainless and glass door are just some of her features.

The Southerly 57RS has stout twin-canted rudders, a skeg-protected prop, bow and stern thrusters, and the iconic Southerly variable draft swing keel. The robust variable draft swing keel allows deep draft performance (10’ 6” down), precise directional stability, shallow draft freedom (3’ 6” up), and the capability to dry out completely upright in tidal areas.

With the keel up, the boat can sit on the grounding plate and a centerline skeg that protects the propeller and keeps the rudders safely off the bottom. A hydraulic ram controlled by a button positions the keel anywhere from fully retracted to fully extended. If the keel hits something, it swings clear of the obstacle without damaging the ram. With 10 feet 9 inches of maximum draft, the boat sails well to within 30 degrees of the apparent wind but can still sneak in front of all the other yachts in an anchorage to anchor in 3 feet 6 inches of water.

The Southerly swing keel has been tried and tested for over 45 years by 900+ owners worldwide since it was launched in 1978. The keel is a cast iron aerofoil fin pivoted at the leading edge with a hydraulic hoist. The pivot bearing is in a substantial cast iron grounding plate. The aerofoil sections of the keel have been calculated to optimize the lift characteristics; this ensures excellent windward performance and keeps the surface area low for minimum drag in light air.

The cast iron grounding plate has several functions. It serves as fixed ballast, provides the pivot point for the keel, acts as transverse stiffening in the keel area, and protects the bottom of the boat. The pivot bosses are at the forward end of the keel slot and are an integral part of the casting. The swing keel is then fitted, resulting in a fully matched assembly. The aft end of the keel slot has stops that engage with corresponding lugs on the keel to limit downward travel. The grounding plate and swing keel assembly are bolted into a fiberglass recess, and the recess and the keel box are an integral part of the hull molding. The hull layup in this area is additionally reinforced. The swing keel is raised and lowered by a hydraulic ram connected to the trailing edge of the keel by a Spectra rope pennant. The hydraulic pump is either operated manually or electrically.

The hull is characterized by a long waterline, fine entry and beam carried aft to ensure the highest degree of performance, comfort, stability and safety. The beautifully sleek stylish lines of the raised pilot house coachroof exudes sophistication and elegance, normally only seen on much larger yachts. The large fold down transom door gives access to a large stowage area which is also accessible from deck. When the door is lowered it makes a great bathing platform and provides good access for boarding.

The aft cockpit is extremely spacious, yet secure with comfortable seating and a large cockpit table for entertaining guests in style. For convenience there is a refrigerated box in the table. Covering the cockpit is dodger and a large bimini.

The twin wheels allows the helmsman to enjoy the powerful performance of the yacht, with dedicated areas for sail controls and sailing short handed. Further seating aft allows for guests to relax in comfort, while enjoying all round views.

With over 2,000 square feet of sail area (main and genoa) the Southerly 57RS has plenty of power! The Solent double-headed rig consists of an electric in-boom furling mainsail and two electric furling headsails, one at the stem and the other just aft. The self-tacking blade jib on the inner stay makes for easy singlehanded short-tacking up a channel or into an anchorage, while the 140-percent genoa on the headstay powers the boat to windward in moderate conditions. Offshore, unfurl both sails and pole out the blade jib for easy downwind miles; when the wind goes light, set an asymmetric from the retractable bow sprit.

"One day you might be power-reaching across an ocean, logging double-digit speeds under a massive A-sail set on a retracting bowsprit. On another day you may be tacking effortlessly up a narrow channel, putting the helm over and watching the self-tacking jib slam across its track, enjoying the windward bite and responsive steering of a deep-drafted performance cruiser. Or you may have nosed up to a beach, the boat sitting upright on the hard sand as the tide recedes, your children playing in the shadow of the sleek hull.

If you own a Southerly 57RS all this and more is possible, which is why we had no hesitation in singling this boat out from a strong group of contenders. Designed by Ed Dubois and built in Britain by Northshore Yachts, the 57RS is the flagship of a line of strong, seaworthy, and well-crafted variable-draft sailboats. It is a bluewater-capable cruiser with a difference."
