About
The Southerly 105 Ketch (1981) is a characteristic British sailing yacht featuring an electro-hydraulic lifting keel and a skeg-mounted liftable rudder. This allows the vessel to combine excellent sailing characteristics with a variable draft of approximately 1.00 to 2.10 meters, making it ideal for coastal and tidal waters as well as shallow inland waters such as the IJsselmeer, the Wadden Sea, and the Frisian Lakes. The relatively rare ketch version offers extra flexibility in sail handling and ensures a stable course. Thanks to the sheltered central cockpit, double helm station, and practical deck layout, the vessel is easy to handle for solo sailing or with a small crew.
This specific vessel distinguishes itself through extensive investments and technical upgrades in recent years. The most significant is the complete refit of the keel structure in 2025 , an essential and costly maintenance expense that has thus been addressed for a long time. In 2023, among other things, the standing and running rigging were renewed , a Furlex roller reefing system was installed, and a Raymarine linear autopilot was professionally mounted on a reinforced rudder stock quadrant. The electrical installation was also completely renewed in 2023 , including an automatic switch panel and 220V connections.
Furthermore, the ship is equipped with, among other things, a new Vetus bow thruster (2022) , Raymarine Tridata with NMEA2000 (2022), new Vetus hull windows and Autotherm diesel heating (2024), renewed waste hoses and antifouling (2024), and a new service battery (2026).
On board, much attention has been paid to comfort and practicality. Four extra floor hatches create approximately 400 liters of additional storage space, including room for a folding bicycle, for example, and there is preparation for a lithium service battery bank of up to approximately 600 Ah. The layout offers sleeping accommodations for 7 to 8 people, a bright saloon, a spacious aft cabin, and a well-ventilated interior with high-quality teak work.
Combined with the extensive sail wardrobe and complete navigation and deck equipment, this results in a particularly complete and well-maintained example of the Southerly 105 Ketch.
