“Bluewater Cruiser“

“If a boatyard like Sirius-Werft is launching a new sailing yacht, you can be confident she will be extraordinary.” We are delighted to say that this prophecy came true when we launched our new range with its unique and innovative Deck Saloon concept. Starting in 2010 with the Sirius 35 DS, our boats have simply stunned the market. Leading up to launch was an intensive five-year development programme, a design contest with four exceptional naval architects, hundreds of conversations with past and potential customers – and added to the mix, our dedicated team’s 40 years of experience and...

“The Sirius 40 DS is probably the best production boat ever built.” “What I find most striking about this boat is the enormous amount of thought that has gone into the design.” “Sirius is a small family boatyard that is to be taken very seriously. They build some extraordinary yachts. Because of the loyalty of it's customers and the uniqueness of it's products, it's the kind of boatyard able to make its way effortless through any crisis.” “…an exclusive care-free package – the highest standards of quality applied to even the smallest details - a concept with unusual versatility. The Sirius...

“Not only a deck saloon yacht that sails well, but one with a twin keel that really points upwind.” “A deck saloon yacht, whose grace and power under sail catches the eye.” “The Sirius 40 DS stands for rich ideas and thrilling sailing.” A yacht as individual as you In our experience, every customer is someone special – with amazing dreams and plans for exciting adventures. And with different needs and expectations of your yacht - from single-handed to family comfort, from coastal hopping to ocean crossings, in very hot or very cold climates – discover your ideal blue-water cruiser with the...

“A light breeze and the 11.6 tonnes Sirius DS sets off without drama. We were really curious about how this twin-keeled boat would perform close-hauled. As the breeze filled, increasing to 12-14 knots we gently ‘laid her onto the wind’. We were easily able to maintain 35 degrees AWA, which you would expect from a performance cruiser – not one designed for long-distance adventures. And all the while achieving 6 knots – her performance under sail really surprised us.” “It was the sailing performance, in particular, that won us over.” “What surprises me the most are the tacking angles that we...

"...all on the same level, the saloon area inside and the cockpit outside merge into one living space with perfect communication and visual contact.“ Meeting at eye level The philosophy behind all of our Sirius deck saloon yachts lies in the interconnection between the two most important living areas onboard. While sailing, the same eye-level visibility between the saloon and the cockpit makes it easy to relax in the comfort of the protected saloon without worrying about sea sickness, to remain in contact with the helmsman and crew – to simply enjoy life on board. Whether helming at the nav...

“This is how sailing can be: while relaxing on your comfortable sofa.” “Taking time to look around is a joyful journey of discovery. Everywhere you look you find small surprises and clever little details. Storage space is in abundance, including spaces for big bags and boxes.” “By this point you start to swear that a cruising yacht without a deck saloon is rather like a pencil without any lead – pointless!” Enjoy sailing on a diff

“Well thought-out and extremely spacious design.” The saloon forms the heart of the Sirius 40 DS. With around 2 meters of headroom, the saloon enjoys an elevated position with a comfortable U-shaped settee and panoramic views all around. The generous living area, stylish ambience and many large windows make life pleasant and comfortable onboard, even during rainy and stormy days in harbour. “A homely atmosphere, with views in all directions…” “The all-round windows of the deck saloon offers a superior level of

“The boat’s success is due not only to the comfort of this deck saloon design, but also to the attention to detail evident in, for example, storage space and ventilation.” Standing in the galley, or sitting at the inside command position, you will find yourself at the same eye-level as your crewmates sitting in the saloon – and even those sat in the cockpit. While sailing, this generates a totally new 'way of being' – an end to the sense of being stuck in the cockpit or isolated in the cabin.

“...strikingly high standards of craftsmanship and exquisite equipment.” “…a result close to absolute perfection…” Galley With more than 2m headroom and panoramic views, the chef in the galley can stay fully connected to activity on and around the boat – and the eye-level is the same as the saloon sitting area opposite. Comfort features: fridge, cool box and/or freezer compartment, half-gimballed stove with oven, and if required, a microwave with grill, and a dishwasher. The volume of storage space will amaze you! Everything is easily accessible in illuminated cupboards, well-organised...

“The internal helm position allows you to steer as easily as from the cockpit.” Nav station / internal command position “Everyone who looks closely at the Sirius 40 DS, will not cease to be amazed…” The nav station is located directly under the large Perspex sliding hatch. With the optional electronic or wheel steering and engine controls, you can helm comfortably while protected from the weather. The nav station is well equipped with instruments and navigational aids. The revolving ‘captain’s chair’ can be adjusted in height. Even when the boat is heeling, you can easily brace yourself and...
