Sirius–Werft Plön is a
German shipyard established in 1971. Since 1988, they have been developing and producing
deck saloon yachts based on their successful model
Sirius 31. At this year’s edition of
boot Düsseldorf, they presented their flagship - the largest deck saloon yacht, the
Sirius 40 DS. Over forty years of experience and expertise guarantee innovativeness, a high-quality product and superb sailing performances. The Sirius 40 DS is built to provide a
high level of safety during long cruises. It also boasts a
decent level of comfort. The latest Sirius has been designed with great regard to advice from various naval architects, Sirius’ in-house experts and hundreds of satisfied customers.

The Sirius 40 DS is 11.99 m long
overall, with the
maximum beam of 4.08 m. Her
basic draft is 2.10 m, but with
optional models, it can also be 2.00 m, 1.75 m and 1.50 m. The yacht comes with several keel options - a
twin keel with 1.40 m of drought or a
swing keel with 1.00-2.40 m of drought. The standard
set of sails includes a 48.2 m²
mainsail and a 32.3 m²
self-tacking jib. Recommended optional sails include a 69.0 m²
genoa I, a 150.0 m²
spinnaker, a 132.0 m²
furling gennaker, and an 81.0 m²
furling drifter. The Sirius 40 DS is powered by the
Volvo-Diesel D2-55 engine supported by a 200 l-capacity
fuel tank. The capacity of the
fresh water tank is from 400 l upwards.
The interior layout is not easy to describe at all because it can be designed
in line with a customer’s requests, as well as with the
type of sailing the customer prefers. With respect to the number of births,
up to 6 berths can be installed in the layout that includes
three cabins, or
two cabins that come with
convertible saloon furniture. The main feature of the interior layout is the possibility of installing
a technical room, equipped with a workbench and with everything an engineer can need. Unfortunately, this option is only possible by sacrificing the space under the cockpit settee to port. Such variety of options in literally every segment of yacht-building makes the Sirius 40 DS one of the
most extraordinary yachts. This is even more so because this yacht is not someone’s daring experiment, but a product of a trustworthy and distinguished shipyard from the north of Germany. Visit
