SW96 SORCERESS yacht is the first unit in the new mini-series of high-performance cruisers launched by Southern Wind in May 2017. She was commissioned by a yachtsman looking for a performance superyacht to use in both coastal and transoceanic races and for bluewater cruises.

Exterior

SW96 Sorceress yacht exterior design incorporates features typical of top performance yachts such as a wide transom, a lifting keel, twin rudder and ample sail area. Combining the best features of both a flush deck and deck saloon configuration, the design of this raised saloon yacht blends a sleek deckhouse and uncluttered sight lines with higher ceilings and ample light, which floods into the interior through 270° panoramic windows.

Deck

SW96 Sorceress yacht has a carbon fibre prepreg and nomex deck for excellent sailing performance in any weather conditions. The deck hardware is optimized for both shorthand performance cruising and offshore racing: a fixed bowsprit with an integrated anchor arm and fitting for gennaker tack line and furling code 0 allows for flexibility and practical anchoring and sailing manoeuvers. The mainsail sheet system with Cariboni Magic Trim leaves the deck clean for easy movement on board.

Interior

The interior layout features a large saloon above the engine room which is accessible through a full height control room. The owner’s cabin forward with en-suite private desk and “office area” and three guests cabins amidships offer privacy for all on board. Crew quarters aft feature two en suite crew cabins, a spacious galley that opens onto the crew mess and a nav station. Nauta Design’s Italian touch is the secret behind SW96 Sorceress yacht classic yet modern style.
