The Southerly 32 offers a unique combination of offshore sailing performance, class-leading accommodation, and the ability to not only explore shoal waters but also to take the ground, all whilst squeezing into a 10m LOA. In addition, the electric lifting keel mechanism, bow thruster, anchor windlass and self-tacking jib all operable from the helm making them very easy for short-handed sailing, and these factors combine to make them one of the most sought-after yachts on the UK market. This example presents very well and has been expertly cared for by her current owner since 2017. The boat has had a full keel refurbishment carried out by Fox's Marina in December 2025, including a new keel pennant.
