Southern Wind Shipyard is proud to announce the fifth hull in their SW96 series, the luxurious sailing yacht Liberty. This impressive 29.3-meter vessel follows a successful line of performance-oriented cruisers designed for families.
Designed for Comfort and Speed
Liberty, commissioned by a repeat Southern Wind owner, embodies the perfect blend of family-friendly cruising amenities and exhilarating sailing capabilities. Constructed using cutting-edge carbon fiber technology, she boasts exceptional weight reduction for optimal performance and enhanced sound insulation for a peaceful yachting experience. The collaboration between Farr Yacht Design for her sleek lines and Nauta Design for the elegant interiors ensures both style and functionality. Ebony Design further complemented the yacht’s aesthetics with their interior design expertise.
Advanced Engineering and Functionality
Liberty features a high-modulus carbon mast and boom for exceptional responsiveness, along with EC6+ carbon rigging for superior strength. A fixed bowsprit facilitates the use of headsails, while twin rudders offer precise maneuverability. The innovative lifting keel allows for a variable draft, ranging from 5.5 meters to a shallow 3.4 meters, providing access to shallower waters and hidden coves.
Light-Filled and Luxurious Interior
The raised saloon configuration paired with a low-profile coachroof maximizes natural light throughout the interior. Guests are welcomed into a spacious, full-beam main saloon offering panoramic views through expansive windows and hull portlights. A cozy snug with a television lounge provides a versatile area for relaxation forward to starboard.
Accommodations for Family and Crew
Liberty offers comfortable living quarters for six guests across three well-appointed cabins. The dedicated crew area provides ample bunks for a crew of four, ensuring exceptional service during voyages. The master cabin boasts “ample storage space” for extended yachting adventures.
Effortless Onboard Flow
The well-considered layout minimizes level changes between the aft cockpit and the guest areas. This seamless flow allows for easy and safe movement onboard, especially while navigating under sail.
Southern Wind’s Liberty is a testament to their commitment to crafting exceptional sailing yachts that cater to both high-performance sailing enthusiasts and families seeking luxurious cruising experiences.
