Having sold his company, Nick has ordered the Southerly 435 to finally live out his dream of extending his sailing horizon and enjoying longer distance cruising voyages. New Discovery 54 ‘VERY HOT NEWS, just off the press!’ Be the first to know, this has not even been published yet!

D48/S480 Update The new Discovery 48 will also be available in a Southerly variant, as the Southerly 480 with a variable draft Swing Keel. No sooner did we announce the first D48 was going into production than we received a follow up order for hull number 2! A third is already on the way, making this already one of the most successful models in its first year of production. The Discovery 48 with a fixed keel, has been designed to tackle the world’s oceans on their own terms while being a pleasure to sail and a home away from home wherever she travels. The Southerly 480 takes advantage of its versatile keel to greatly expand its cruising range. A shallow bay or river is no longer a barrier to such comfort. Open Yard Follow up The Open Yard on 11 June 2017 was a great success with customers and prospects of both Discovery and Southerly Yachts in attendance. Over 100 people enjoyed the festive BBQ atmosphere and had a chance to see two Bluewater 50 catamarans under construction along with a D55 and D58. Various stations were set up around the facility to showcase to visitors what makes a Discovery Shipyard-built yacht so special. Our next open yard is scheduled to be held on 14-15th October 2017 so mark your calendars now.This Open Weekend will also include an on-water event at Hythe Marina, please reserve your place now as spaces will be limited.
