The Southerly 480 represents a sophisticated evolution of the variable-draft cruising concept, merging the blue-water robustness of Discovery Yachts with the go-anywhere versatility of the Southerly swing-keel system. Launched as a refined successor to the Southerly 47, the 480 was designed by Humphreys Yacht Design to provide a luxury cruising platform that refuses to be limited by shallow coastal waters. Built during a pivotal era for the brand, the 480 successfully addressed the market's demand for a center-cockpit yacht that could transition from a deep-ocean passage maker to a shallow-water explorer with the push of a button.
