2009 SOUTHERLY 49 RST Vergleichen

Built by Southerly in 2009, Astra is a 15.11-metre sailing yacht that offers a balanced combination of comfort, practicality and proven blue-water cruising capability. This well-established model has earned recognition for reliable performance across diverse sailing conditions.

Astra features three cabins and two heads, providing comfortable accommodation for family cruising or longer passages. The yacht is equipped with a variable-draft swing keel system, allowing a draft of just 2'10" when raised and 10'3" when lowered—a significant advantage for exploring shallow waters and tidal zones where she can dry upright. Twin wheels and twin rudders enhance manoeuvrability and control, while a skeg-protected propeller and sturdy grounding plate offer practical protection. Recent updates and a partial refit completed in 2023 ensure systems are current and reliable.

Astra is ideally suited to buyers seeking a robust, capable vessel for extended blue-water cruising, particularly those planning to explore Southeast Asian waters. The variable-draft keel, shallow-water capability and turn-key condition make her an excellent platform for adventurous owners who value exploration, self-sufficiency and the freedom to anchor in remote locations.
