      Also check out their official channel if you haven't already.

      @@chipmann2383 hi all, and thanks Part Time for the good vid.
      I seen too an hidden beauty in this boat : the inner quality of the structure and the thickness of the GRP, seems it can compete with alloy and can push some ice without damages.
      It's a kind of small Amel Yacht.
      I fell in love too.
      I've got the prices from a french magazine ( voile magazine ) and it's .... 520 000 euros the 40feet..
      It's 100k more than a 55 feet with a classic layout !
      Quality and genius has a price..

    A fine boat for heavy weather- have had no problems including a squall with 60-70 knot headwind. The twin keels point as well as any fin I've sailed. A yacht with many innovations. For info the yacht is a deck saloon (not dog house) with 360 degree vision. One correction; the forward black water tank empties by gravity (in a second) the mid-ships tank is pumped. As to blue water capability? ...well one of these crossed the Atlantic and went up the Pacific to Vancouver last year...had a very fine voyage by all accounts.

    • @parttimecrazyboats5468

      Very cool to hear of some actual sailing experience with it!
      I'm very glad for you.
      Also good to know about the tank.
      I am aware of the dog house / deck salon difference. When I wrote dog house in a comment I just meant that searches for dog house yachts sometimes yield some deck saloon results too.
      Thanks for the clarification regardless.
      Sirius will be at the boot Duesseldorf in January again.
      Apparently with the 40 as well as with the 310.
      Already looking forward to visiting them.

The website doesn't really give too much details concerning their dealer network so I am not certain how large of a builder they are. Sirius is a fine boat, and I would love to own one, but I am in the States and they do not appear to have a dealer network across the pound. Plus I am lacking the 750K euros as well.

      Yep, that's an autopilot adjustment at the nav station. They have also made a DS40 that has videos on UA-cam now that has a small wheel for steering at that same station. I think it was in a Seattle Boat Show, if you want to go digging for the video.

      @iMatti00 4 роки тому +2

      "Seminar: How to get rich and (stay) unknown - $5000
      I've been dying to take a Sirius 40DS sailing for a week to give you my honest opinion.

      The many sailing magazines testing her obviously liked it: Segeln: “Modern appearance and good sailing performance.”; “Not only a deck saloon yacht that sails well, but one with a twin keel that really points upwind.”; Segler Zeitung: “We were easily able to maintain 35 degrees AWA, which you would expect from a performance cruiser - not one designed for long-distance adventures. … her performance under sail really surprised us.”; Bootshandel: ”It was the sailing performance, in particular, that won us over.” “What surprises me the most are the tacking angles that we recorded - all were well under 80°.” “You have to sail her to appreciate the huge potential that the Sirius 40 DS offers you.” Yachting Monthly: “She tacked through 80° and was most comfortable at around 32° off the apparent wind.” Sailing Today: "If I was planning to sail around the world and live aboard, this is the yacht I would go for”, 4 out of 5 Stars for performance; Segeln: “The concept is mature, executed to perfection, and she really sails well. You can’t ask for more.” Please find more comments of the experts in our brochure at: www.sirius-werft.de/wpsirius/wp-content/uploads/40DS_Prospekt_En.pdf

    Good walk thru but I have doubts as a blue water boat completely due to the split bilge keels.

    • @SiriusYachts
      @SiriusYachts 4 роки тому +6

      Thanks for the chance to comment to that doubts: With Sirius Yachts you can choose between various keel versions including different length of fins, real swing keels and twin keels. They are in fact the most famous for blue water cruising and the boat we showed in Seattle at the show earlier this year, has been sailed with them all the way from Germany through the Atlantic, Panama Canal, through the Pacific, via Micronesia and Hawaii to Vancouver by their owners. Performance in rough weather conditions is pending much more on the hull shape and level of weight stability, rather than the keel version you are choosing your boat in, but that`s a different question (if of interest, I am happy to explain why we did what we did). The twin keels perform likewise in rough seas as they have the same stability rating as the deeper fins. But they also carry more weight to archive this, which makes some motion even more gentle. Only thing is: if you are sailing hull speed, 20° heeled (or more) in high waves you might get occasionally some air behind the keel which is forced out with some sound

      I can only agree.
      My favourite way of picturing this is that if most other boats _seem_ to have been designed in 2D, Sirius was designed in 3D.
      So-so many nifty solutions.
      I am generally a big fan of questioning one assumption (salon placement in this case) and then following through with unraveling what becomes possible through this.
      Also very nice people.

Beds are already 2,05m+ but as all our boats are semi-custom build you are welcome to bring in your ideas and have it built after your requirements

      There have been an number of curcumin-navigations on older yachts even. Some Atlantic crossings. Recently a 40 DS was collected by the owners in Germany and sailed straight back to Vancouver via Canary islands, Caribbean, Panama Canal, Galapagos, Micronesia, Hawaii. A second one just arrived in Barbados. One is on its way to the Indian Ocean.

    Suicide sink in the head. Those sinks are dumb on land but deadly underway on a sailboat.

      @SiriusYachts 4 роки тому +1

      Not deadly, really ;-) …but as this boats are made to measure - you can choose different versions after your liking. Always a balance between comfort and practicability pending on your type of sailing or if its convinced enough to use the sink in the galley in really rough seas instead

      Sirius Werft That is a very interesting boat. I single-handed for six months on a sailboat I bought at the age of 50 have a never sailed in my life. I bought a Beneteau 46 in 1999. I had three days of lessons from a 20-year-old kid who drank a case of beer a day. Although I’m not a beer drinker I’ve been alive for 50 years and I’ve never heard of this beer that he was drinking and I’m quite certain it isn’t because it was an exclusive brand. He let me off at my new vacation home on the Chesapeake and drove off leaving me alone. Three months later with my nine-year-old son I sell out of the mouth of the Chesapeake and down to the Caribbean, family and friends accusing me of attempting a murder suicide! But I went with Steve Black’s Caribbean 1500 And I can honestly say that I’ve never spent six months more enchanted in my life. Beneteau fun to sale I realized after I sailed an Amel. If I were going to live on a boat I would sacrifice some of that agility for the robustness of a boat like an Amel or this boat. Congratulations on this boat. If I ever come back (I’m 73 With a paralyzed hand)I’ll try to remember! Enjoy.

      @@robertlee8042 Wow, Robert thank you very much for sharing this inspiring story. I am glad you enjoyed it! There are sooo many people who could be that happy simply going for their dreams instead of worrying about it. One of my customers bought a 32 when retired, had no experience at all and sailed from Germany over to the Caribbean the year after just the 2 of them. They spoke not a word of English or any other forren language but just enjoyed and got so easy in contact with locals. Then he was run down by an 80 year old Taxi driver in Costa Rica spend month in hospital over there before he could be flown home. Insurance shipped the boat back to Germany. He had to learn speaking and walking again and will never be totally back to normal ...but 2,5 years later, they set sail again over to the US and are cruising these grounds since 4 years now...All the best! Enjoy live!

      Long answer- like most modern yacht design too much has been taken from ocean racing.With that almost flat bottom,wide beam and wide stern there isn't enough boat actually in the water.In heavy weather you couldn't sail upwind because the crew can't take that much pounding,that type of hull will NOT heave to,try lying a hull-you'll be blown around like a piece of Styrofoam.Run off downwind?again that hull style,she'll surf like a bitch and sooner or later you lose control, most of us don't come close to the skills of vendee globe sailors.
      I'm sure she's a lot of fun to sail,just too extreme for a true blue water boat.

      Moreover I'm not sure it would help in this specific case: Trying to keep a dozen randomly moving people out of frame is just... difficult.
      It's not like I have the boat to myself.
      Well, who doesn't like to look at oneself from time to time. =)
      More importantly a mirror allows me to demonstrate the size of a room / provide a new viewing angle / talk to the camera for a change without having to turn the camera around. Win-win

      And there’s no reason they can’t be built to do this. Why ride the waves in a storm when you could just as easily motor under the waves in a hurricane as you do in the calmest of seas.

      This is an anchor stored in its slide and connected to 75m of lead filled rope leaded on an electric free-fall anchor winch inside the boat. Very useful in the Norwegian and Swedish archipelagos or everywhere where you are going to use the back anchor a lot
