2010 Southerly 57 RS

The Southerly 57 RS is a 57-foot fiberglass sailing yacht built in 2010, designed by Dubois Naval Architects in collaboration with Rhoades Young interiors and the Southerly design team. The hull features a long waterline, fine entry, and carried beam aft for performance and stability. The coach roof styling reflects sophistication typically found on larger yachts, and the boat includes a built-in windshield with custom canvas options ranging from full enclosure to a simple Bimini arrangement.

The yacht's sail plan centers on a GMT Carbon 3 spreader mast with swept-back spreaders and carbon hydraulic in-boom furling. A double headsail rig—including a self-tacking jib for easy coastal cruising and an overlapping genoa for light-air upwind performance—works with an asymmetric gennaker flown from an electrical retractable carbon bowsprit. The design prioritizes easy handling for a crew of two, with powerful sailing performance in all weather conditions and minimal effort required. A swing keel system provides both deep-draft performance and shallow-draft versatility.

Below deck, the interior accommodates three cabins and two heads, with a raised salon featuring extensive side windows and forward views. The design emphasizes light and space with a blend of traditional practicality and contemporary finishes. The yacht is powered by a single 163 hp Steyr diesel engine. Custom details throughout reflect thoughtful engineering and aesthetics, supporting long-distance cruising comfort alongside day sailing capability.
