The Southerly 115 Mk IV has benefited greatly from the class's continual development since the first Southerly 115 was built.
She has good cruising performance and has proven herself to be an excellent and safe family cruising yacht, whether it be for short passage or long passage making.
The interior is light and spacious and the aft cabin is simply wonderful. The interior design works well either at anchor or at sea.
Some of the many upgrades incorporated into Artic Tern over the early Southerly 115s include better interior headroom and standard of finish, a deeper and heavier keel giving improved sailing performance and twin rudders for even better steering under sail and power.
The swing keel is very well proven and gives tremendous flexibility to ones cruising. She can sail in under 3 feet of water and can even dry out on a suitable surface. The keel can be used anywhere between up and down.
She has up to 7 berths. There is are 2 singles or a double forward, a double aft and a double conversion in the saloon plus another single as well.
A full extensive upgrade and service was undertaken by Northshore in 2022/2023 (schedule available)
Artic Tern will be ideal for your weekending or for longer living aboard whilst extensive cruising.
