2011 Southerly 57 RS

VIVERE’s interior is one of the defining features of the Southerly 57RS. Styled by Rhoades Young, the yacht uses Crown Cut teak joinery, refined stainless and leather accents, sculpted handrails, raised seating, and excellent natural light to create an atmosphere that is warm, substantial, and unmistakably premium. The Raised Saloon layout places the primary living and watchkeeping areas where they belong on an offshore cruising yacht: elevated, secure, connected to the cockpit, and surrounded by visibility.The interior flow is practical for extended time aboard. From the aft cockpit, the companionway leads into the Raised Saloon with a dining area to port, twin leather lounge chairs to starboard, and the navigation station aft to port. Forward of the saloon, the galley and chef’s nook form a functional living and working area that remains connected to the social center of the yacht. The full-beam owner’s stateroom is forward, with a centerline queen berth, office/vanity space, excellent storage, and an en-suite head with separate shower. Aft and down to starboard are two guest cabins and a second head with separate stall shower, giving VIVERE a proper three-cabin, two-head cruising layout.Interior Styling and Additional Features:Crown Cut teak joinery throughoutSuperyacht-quality stainless steel and leather accents throughout the interiorRaised Saloon layout with panoramic visibility and Dubois teardrop windowsV-groove flooring throughoutThree Dometic and two Climma reverse-cycle air-conditioning/heating units - approximately 50,000 BTU totalConcertina blinds fitted in the raised coachroof areaRemote-control operation of forward window blindsRoller shade screens and blinds for hatchesCedar-lined hanging lockers with automatic wardrobe lightingLED interior lighting throughoutTecma electric toilets with dual fresh/saltwater flushLarge 105-gallon holding tankFans fitted in headsSplendide vented washer/dryer concealed in aft shower areaNatural Mat Airflow mattress upgradesStarlink Standard 4X with trio flat mount Gen 3Wi-Fi throughoutMAIN SALOONThe Raised Saloon is the heart of VIVERE. Dubois’ distinctive teardrop windows fill the space with natural light, while the elevated seating position gives the dining and lounge areas an extraordinary connection to the water.

The galley is positioned forward of the Raised Saloon and is designed for serious time aboard. Corian counters, stainless appliances, keel-cooled refrigeration, wine storage, and generous cabinetry make the space practical underway and comfortable at anchor.

NAVIGATION STATIONThe navigation station is located aft to port within the Raised Saloon, just inboard of the companionway. This elevated position gives the navigator visibility, immediate access to the cockpit, and a central location for system monitoring, communications, and electrical control. The leather swivel navigation seat includes fold-down armrests and places the navigator in front of three panels of instrumentation.NEW B&G Zeus SR MFD - 2025Icom marine radioB&G autopilot keypadEMPIRBUS master control computerFischer Panda generator controlShore power / generator 120 V control and distributionTankage gaugesELECTRONIC SYSTEMSVIVERE carries a substantial B&G-based navigation package with updated multifunction displays, redundant helm instrumentation, autopilot controls, VHF communications, AIS, and NMEA 2000 integration.

HULLVIVERE was designed by Ed Dubois and built by Northshore Yachts as the flagship of the Southerly variable-draft range. Her hull form carries a fine entry, long waterline, and beam aft for stability, interior volume, and confident offshore motion. The hydraulic swing keel is central to the design, allowing shallow-water access with the keel raised and true deep-keel sailing performance when deployed.Fiberglass monohull constructionHydraulic variable-draft swing keel with approximately 4’ to 10’9” draft rangeTwin rudders for control and grounding supportSubstantial grounding keel plate designed to allow the yacht to safely take the groundLong waterline, fine plumb entry, and beam carried aft for stability and volumeDesigned by Ed Dubois and built by Northshore Yachts in the United KingdomDECKThe deck layout is built around secure movement, shorthanded sail handling, and a strong connection between the cockpit and Raised Saloon. The raised coachroof and teardrop windows are a signature of the design, while the aft deck, garage, and hydraulic transom door create a genuine beach-club-style stern platform.Raised Saloon deckhouse with DuBois teardrop windowsTeak exterior surfaces noted as beautifully oiled and consistent throughoutSecure deck layout with stainless steel and teak handrailsHydraulic tender garage for Williams 285 Turbo JetHydraulic transom door / beach club with teak and stainless swim platform800 W solar array on bimini - 2025COCKPITLarge aft sailing cockpit with symmetrical curved seating for approximately eightCenterline varnished teak folding table with drink locker and stainless steel safety railsDual carbon steering wheelsFully equipped port and starboard helm/navigation stationsCockpit companionway access directly into the Raised SaloonUpdated cockpit soft goods - 2025Cockpit down lightingMAST AND RIGGINGSelden carbon fiber mast with clear coat finish and black alloy triple spreadersSolent double-headsail rigNitronic 50 rod standing riggingGMT hydraulic-powered in-boom mainsail furlerFurlex 400 E 24 V powered self-tacking jib furling inner stayFurlex 300 E 24 V powered Code Zero furling headstayHydraulic boom vang and backstay cylinders with manual hydraulic pump and control panelManual hydraulic mast jack system for rig tuning and stepping/un-steppingEight LED spreader lights with up/down lights individually switched from main panel and helm podLopo LED foredeck and steaming light on mastLightning Master arrestor at masthead with mast step connected to keel plateThree mast climbing stepsMast stepping and rig survey - 5/26SAILS AND WINCHESNorth Sails SRP75 fully battened mainsail with in-boom furling - well used and reliably functionalNEW Code Zero on Furlex - 2026Self-tacking jib, SRP95 - well used and reliably functionalGenoa, SRP75North G2 gennakerPush-button mainsail furl/unfurl controls at helmLewmar 48 AEST powered halyard winch - starboardLewmar 54 AEST powered mainsheet winch and jib sheet winchesLewmar 68 AEST powered 2-speed genoa sheet winches - port and starboard

BROKER’S COMMENTSVIVERE is one of the most compelling yachts in the sub-60-foot bluewater market because she does something very few yachts can do well: she combines serious offshore ability, refined luxury, shorthanded sailing systems, and true shoal-draft freedom in one yacht. The Southerly 57RS is not another conventional center-cockpit cruiser. She is a modern raised-saloon, variable-draft offshore yacht with a signature Dubois profile, an elegant Rhoades Young interior, and the structural intent of a yacht designed for real voyaging.The swing keel is the headline feature, but it is not a gimmick. Keel down, VIVERE has the bite, righting moment, and windward ability expected of a serious offshore yacht. Keel up, she opens up shallow anchorages, rivers, Bahamas-style cruising grounds, and tucked-away harbors that most 57-foot yachts simply cannot reach. Her ability to safely take the ground on the keel pad and twin rudders further expands her cruising possibilities and makes her a uniquely practical long-distance yacht.Her interior is equally important. The Raised Saloon creates real visibility, light, and livability underway, while the three-cabin, two-head arrangement provides privacy and storage for extended time aboard. The full-beam owner’s suite forward, aft guest accommodations, chef’s nook, and elevated nav station make the boat feel far more spacious and considered than a conventional cruiser of similar length.VIVERE is also well equipped and meaningfully updated, with lithium power, solar, Starlink, watermaker, updated B&G navigation electronics, recent drivetrain improvements, a carbon rig, powered sail handling, bow and stern thrusters, and a Williams jet tender in a garage. For a buyer who wants a yacht that can cross oceans, cruise shallow water, and stand apart from the usual bluewater offerings, VIVERE deserves serious attention.VIVERE is noted as undergoing spring maintenance, with hull and deck wax completed and haul-out, bottom paint, zincs, mast clear-coat work, and rig survey scheduled for 5/26. These items should be confirmed and updated as work is completed before activation.REVIEWSThe Southerly 57 received SAIL Magazine’s 2011 Best Boats award in the flagship monohull category.
