Finally, there is a video about the Sirius 35 DS out, which is not just Torsten in each and every picture, but someone knowledgeable (and so much nicer to look at) and to listen to ;-). It`s in German but Marie has done a very good job on the English subtitles you can switch on in the settings (in the right hand bottom corner of the video). If you like have a look to her Video “The perfect boat for sailing around the world: boat tour of the Sirius 35DS at boot 2020 boat show” ua-cam.com/video/NcVVsEnUBUc/v-deo.html&lc=z23rwfehynfqijkxb04t1aokglalr2efuitr2ccvdausbk0h00410.1582479078244963 We are glad she found us and liked it that much!
That was a good video, and she did indeed do a good job on the subtitles... But I still enjoy your demonstration videos, Torsten. Your love for what you do reminds me of my favorite teacher in high school--he taught the advanced math classes and even though I have never liked math he was so energetic and excited about the subject that I couldn't help but enjoy his classes. Same thing here, although in this case, I already enjoy sailing yachts. 🙂
If I could ever afford this, this would be my next boat! Such incredible thought in every aspect of design! So light filled and beautiful! I keep watching your website for 2nd hand. Such perfect design!
Thanks a lot...and yes, we are proud of the outcome. Behind the design stands a big team who all work with love and passion and thousands of owners ideas. Lots of credit to them as well!
Very well prepared video, envisioning what it would be like to own this vessel in real life. Loads of practical examples which suggest a wealth of experience from different boat owners and design iterations. And at the final part of this video we look at the amazing maneuverability in harbour. Anyone who owns a boat knows how much stress (and damage) you can get from leaving and entering (new) harbours. This sells the boat for me
This video is in my favorites permanently. One day I’m gonna get a yacht and sail the world, and if I won the lotto, first thing I’d do is book a flight to Germany and go to Seeblick :D
Being a lover of catamarans, this extraordinary boat would be my choice for a monohull! The foredeck is wide, the cockpit is wide, the lounge is wide, the materials and construction look top notch! Just WOW!
Thanks a lot for sharing this! I am glad you like it! There has gone a lot of thought and work in the design, but behind this stands a big team who all work with love and passion and thousands of owners ideas. Lots of credit to them as well!
@@peterhehn9511 you are most welcome! There is a Sirius 40 DS based in Vancouver which was collected by the owners in Germany and sailed straight back via Canary islands, Caribbean, Panama Canal, Galapagos, Micronesia, Hawaii. ..and there are more coming your way ;-). Please contact us via our website if you like us to bring you in touch with the owners or see it on one of the next shows
This is a gorgeous boat, and a lovely design. Nobody ever uses quarter berths, and aft cabins almost always are used to store stuff. I prefer this workshop arrangement. I would add a bow thruster.
Great presentation Sir, ("Emergency storage"= Two Beers, 😂); But seriously, What beautiful well disigned sailboats you make, I wish the best to your company and I hope you sell many of them and do well, keep up your great work 👍🏼.
Thank you very much! I just love what I do. I am glad you can notice it. On top of this, I am in the lovely position to have our boats built in the exact way I would do it for myself...and I do work for a company with 49 years of tradition and experience in doing just that. If than that many owners bringing in so many ideas and experiences ...something like this could be the result
thanks a lot for your compliment! I guess it’s just about being passionate about your job...and being blessed to be in a position and having the team to archive it
Thanks a lot! Glad you like it! About the presentation: it`s just good fun and easy being enthusiastic about the boat ...and lucky having with Graham Snook, one of the best photographers on board, helps even more ;-)
@@PlaneroDeLey Thanks for the nice film. Looks fast an fun...bit over powered by the weight of the outboard, thought!? Took my 24 feet boat halfway through europe with 2,5 and 4hp and no real lag of power ;-)
The more I watch the videos on these boats the more I like them. What do people think they would be like as a blue water sailor? Is there a way to put a cover over the cockpit?
The maneuvering and storage are a major sell. Well done. Would love to see how y'all implement electric motors or a hybrid system for future designs as EM (electric motors), battery storage and so on, gets more mainstream.
Thanks for the compliments! Wind and water generators, solar power, LION Batteries are quite common in and on our boats by now and electric drives have been projected a number of times. It´s fantastic for some usages...still not for all or one needs to be very enthusiastic....to cope with the extra costs involved. Having a generator on board anyhow for other usage helps in the picture. With the car industry in it full speed not this is for sure becoming more affordable in the near future. The technique is all available
Danke schön!!!! I just love what I do. I am glad you can notice it. On top of this, I am in the lovely position to have our boats built in the exact way I would do it for myself...and I do work for a company with 49 years of tradition and experience in doing just that.

This my dream´s boat but I am pretty sure it is extremely expensive . I have a 91 Moody 35 and I will enjoy it some more years before considering the idea of calling Mr Schmidt to request a quotation!!
You are very welcome! ...also in a number of years, but with a Moody 35 you allready own a lovely and sloidly built boat! Do enjoy it as much as possible as soon this is possible again!
I can hardly believe this yacht is only 35'. Such creative design makes me think "this must be a 40' boat and they are just hiding the extra 5' off-camera 🤔
Voilier MAGNIFIQUE, présentation et commentaires TOP, un bonheur de regarder cette vidéo. 2 questions : peut on avoir un dessalinisateur et puis-je en voir un ( que vous auriez vendu ) sur La Rochelle en France ?
Another excellent presentation (as well as the 40 DS video). I'm never going to be in a position to buy, but I have a question: is there an option to fit an electric induction cooker? If so, would this require additional batteries or would the existing on board power be sufficient?
yes, induction cookers are possible but still unusual as few of them have the right fittings to hold pots and pans safe in rough sea and be cardanic. You also would than most likely go for an electric oven as well and this does require some additional power either in really big batteries (most likely LION) and/or an additional generator to keep up if you are not on shore power and want to slow cook your steak ;-) All possible and solar power, wind and water generators are common today but there are pros and cons to discuss at length before making this choices...
We're afraid we won't be exhibiting at Annapolis this year. To protect our customers, staff and the owners who help at show, we've taken the decision not to go this year. We hope to be there when it's safe for everyone. We do welcome visitors to our factory as we can control numbers and minimise the risk and number of employees that you'll come in contact with. We also have owners who are happy to demonstarte their boats and answer questions. please contact us via our website and we can put you in contact woth your nearest owner who can help. www.sirius-yachts.com
Something different from the normal mono haul. Looks like Moody DS. But the interior floor is not level flat makes it more prone to tripping . But overall 👏👏👏👏.
Well, the boat itself is already built for it but then you will like to cover some areas pending on your route and priorities: Route is the first thing to address as for a one-off Atlantic crossing with the trade winds it`s not much special you really need in terms of equipment and its mainly safety features which need upgrading (especially if you like to join the ARC). If you want to go further or across Pacific and Indian Ocean it’s a different story. There you will have to think more about water maker, wind-vane self-steering and power consumption in general. We also do rain water collectors, SSB radio systems, dehumidifiers, air-conditions, filter systems, all kind of power generators. I would also have the cockpit arch for more solar cells, antennas and a Bimini which could be integrated into the arch or freestanding and could cover the whole cockpit, even while sailing, if we add a targa-style arch at the end of the deck saloon with the mainsheet on top. A number of this things are up for discussion pending on the type of sailing, sense of comfort and security and the route you have in mind. Lots of things can also be prepared and come in steps pending on how far away your starting point of the big journey is when you have her built. We like to be your advisors on this route and through the whole process, but we do generally built a lot of boats ready-to-go-anywhere directly after commissioning
As prices and standard equipment’s are changing over the years and we hope this video will still be up to date in 5 years from now we try not to post prices here.

You could ask the owners of the yacht that will be at the 2020 Seattle boat show. They sailed their 40DS from Germany to Portugal, the Canaries and onto the Caribbean, before heading into the Pacific and to Galapagos, Hawaii and Vancouver. Or visit the facebook group ( facebook.com/groups/363599067887788/ ) of the owners of a 35DS that has just sailed from Cape Verde to Barbados.
Danke für das große Kompliment! Ich freue mich dass es Ihnen gefällt! Viele der Ideen zur Aufteilung sind über die Jahre mit Eignern auf der ganzen Welt entwickelt und weiterentwickelt worden. Denen gebührt auch ein/mein großer Dank!
This would be great, I live in Scandinavia and would really want to prolong our sailing seasons by installing some sort of fireplace (seen some amateur installments on UA-cam, but I'm curious about more professional alternatives). Not sure if a webasto heater is sufficient enough for winters.. used it on some cold spring/autumn nights but not more than that. Truly a remarkable design this, I love everything about it! Some real thought put into designing this! A part of me would like a larger cockpit but I would give that up for that amazing saloon! The more I think about "traditional" designs the weirder they seem, this seems much more logical! You do not want to shut nature out completely! Sort of is a catamaran design on a monohull in many ways, really like it! How is the sailing performance on this model?
Marius Hansen sure, you are most welcome! The Spinlock winch handle version comes as standard with the 35 and 40....and I absolutely love it! But as all our boats are made to measure the customers requirements, everybody can chose after her or his liking...and we make it work 😉
Having recently read about a couple of fatalities that occurred after a failure of the mainsail sheet in another Euro built boat that had the main sheet mounted in the cockpit, the location on the helm station in the Sirius DS gives me a bit of pause now. A traveler/traveler arch over the top of the cabin would seem to be safer. Was that ever considered?
This mainsheet arch connects to the cockpit floor through U-shaped stainless steel reinforcements on a surface of 0,6 m by 1,3 m and is made of 42 mm thick walled stainless steel tube calculated for it. For those seeking full sun protection everywhere in the cockpit, even while sailing, we do offer a targa-style cockpit arch above the deck saloon. This has also the mainsheet attached on top which than could be operated by a remote controlled rewind winch. We dont offer a german mainsheet system, like you are referring to
LION Batteries are quite common in our boats by now and electric drives have been projected a number of times. It´s fantastic for some usages...still not for all or one needs to be very enthusiastic.... I have many more thoughts on them. What`s your perspective or questions?
I like the idea of a silent motor but I'm not a fan of lithium's toxicity or its flammability. Also, a diesel engine can be used to generate electricity on calm/cloudy days. I don't know how practical it would be to do a diesel generator paired with an electric prop motor and Lion battery bank, but it might make the neighbors happier if you have to motor around in early morning/late night. Certainly an electric drive would allow at least some motoring in the event of fuel shortage if you equip sufficient solar/wind generators. I am afraid this is all hypothetical anyway as I am nowhere near able to consider purchasing a yacht. Maybe when I retire? Ah, but it is fun to dream.
Thanks, glad you like it! As prices and standard equipment’s are changing over the years and we hope this video will still be up to date in 5 years from now we try not to post prices here.

We have an in-house-design-team which makes most of the interior and technical parts in 3D, but the construction itself like lines and calculation is made by Marc-Oliver von Ahlen who I could highly recommend! yachtdesign-va.de/
Yes, absolutely. Our boats are available all around the world and been sold to 28 different countries by now. But we like to work directly with all our customers (and therfore do not have distributors) as we think this is to your best benefit: a. we like to build a live long relationship with our customers; b. we know our boats and many versions and possibilities best, c. you spare a lot of money for the dealership, and d. we are the most competent partner for all your questions and service requirements. .....but saying this: our customers in all this sailing areas are still our best ambassadors!
We would be happy to bring you in direct contact with owners in the US and Canada. I would have happily invited you to meet us directly to the recently cancelled boat show in Vancouver next February...but we do have customers in Canada with boats you might be able to visit (in 28 different countries by now) and in Canada. One 35 for example was launched in Montreal, now sailing in the golf of Sankt Lorenz and a Sirius 40 DS (which have been collected by their Canadian owners in Germany and sailed straight back to Vancouver via Canary islands, Caribbean, Panama Canal, Galapagos, Micronesia, Hawaii a few years back) can be seen in Vancouver (and has been at the Seattle boat show in 2020)
Erst wenn zu hervorragend beherrschtem Handwerk Liebe und Leidenschaft hinzukommt erreicht man derart überragende Resultate. Mit Worten aus meinem Berufszweig: Perfektion, Persönlichkeit und Leidenschaft: das ist wahre Kunst, die das Herz bewegt! P.S. Hätte ich das nötige Kleingeld, würde ich den „Pott“ eher gestern als heute bestellen!
Wow, tausend Dank für das tolle Kompliment! Es freut mich, dass das sichtbar war. Wenn man dann zusätzlich ein hervorragendes Team hat, welches auf Basis einer nunmehr 50-jähriger Tradition und Erfahrung mit Herzblut Yachten für Eigner bauen kann, die ihrerseits mit Freude all Ihre Erfahrungen und Wünsche einbringen …und diese Yachten exakt so gebaut sind, wie man dies für sich selber machen würde…kann so etwas das Ergebnis sein ;-) ...und man weiß ja nie...by the way: derzeit gibt`s gerade 3 spannende Gebrauchte 310er am Markt www.sirius-werft.de/wpsirius/de/gebrauchtyachten/
I am sorry there aren´t. I noticed that you will get some for real cruising boats, but normally they are only made for racing boats built and sailed on minimum weight and in the same sail configuration. The programs are made for IMS-racing-yachts. The tools getting this charts are not laid out for non planing cruising sail boats built heavier the race boats with solid materials to last and equipped very differently with equipment, keel and rig configurations. But if you like to judge the sailing performance I am happy to list you some quotes from sailing magazines...
thanks! You are right: its literally child’s play: on test sails all people on board including kids 10+ will do this after 10 min and a short instruction!
Like the concept of this boat with two caveats. 1. I don’t like not having any cover over the entrance to the saloon in bad weather. 2. No cover over the cockpit is also not my cup of tea.
Me too but if you watch the video on how these boats are made the graphics displayed on the computer in the design department show a model with bimini and cover.
Yes, we have options for gear holder cockpit arches, targa-style arches, enclosures and Biminis and sun covers for partly or full sun protection. You can either opt for a freestanding, or an in an cockpit arch at the back integrated Bimini for the aft part of the cockpit above and around the helms man position. This could be extended in harbours or anchorages to cover the front part of the cockpit as well, when not sailing. Have a look at 1:00 and 1:50 onwards in: ua-cam.com/video/MQgRIVw-kPg/v-deo.html There is also comes a simple cover dirctly covering the sliding hatch as standard. For those seeking full sun protection everywhere in the cockpit, even while sailing, we do offer a targa-style cockpit arch above the deck saloon. This has also the mainsheet attached on top which than could be operated by a remote controlled rewind winch. With this setup you could shade the full cockpit while sailing either in connection to a free standing or integrated Bimini. It’s a very nice feature for very sunny areas and living on board all year round...but works against rain as well ;-) ....and could easily closed in front with a kind of a transparent Sprayhood. If it`s just the cockpit enclosure this can be lower and independed from any arches.
If you like, here you could see more about the different cockpit arch and Bimini versions.: facebook.com/pg/SiriusYachts/photos/?tab=album&album_id=125880195593720 There are options for full enclosures as well
There have been about 15 or so sailing magazines testing her .....and had obviously been pleased: Yachting Monthly: „Is this the best boat ever built?“, "It`s the highest score we’ve ever awarded, by some distance" (still valid), "the Sirius 35 DS is the best cruiser he’s ever tested.“ "8 out of 10 points in sailing performance(Chris Beeson), Bootshandel: “I was totally awestruck by the small tacking angles we achieved. To convince myself, I checked the results by tacking over and over again. She tacks through less than 80°", Palstek: “The Sirius 35 DS is not only convincing as a high quality, seaworthy and well equipped cruiser, but also is agile and easy to handle even in strong gale conditions. She is a well-controlled sailing boat with a surprising potential for speed.“ There are more test verdicts in our brochure at www.sirius-werft.de/wpsirius/en/yachten/35ds/prospekt/. I hope you will have a chance to experience it in the future for yourself. You are very welcome!
We're afraid not. We had hoped to exhibit at Southampton, and Annapolis this year, and Düsseldorf, Seattle and Vancouver boat shows early in 2022, but as of Ocyober 2021, our next show will be 27-29th May 2022 at our home boat show, the Hamburg Ancora Yachtfestival. This is Germany’s biggest in-water boat show and we look forward to seeing everyone again soon. In the meantime, we welcome visitors to our yard where we have all the models available for sailing. If visiting us is not convenient, we have a vast network of customers who keep their yachts in many different parts of the world. Many have kindly said they are happy to connect with potential customers and show them around their yachts and discuss their experience of buying a Sirius; how they found working with us, the process of deciding the layout that worked best for them and why, as well as their ownership of a Sirius. If you would like to visit us or find out the location of your nearest owner who is happy to show you their yacht, please get in touch via our website HTTP://sirius-yachts.com and we’ll happily do all we can to get you on board a Sirius as soon as possible.
As standard, we use a diesel engine. We are seeing an increase in enquiries about electric propulsion and we're developing a 40DS with twin electric drives that will propel and generate.

Single handed yachts may help, to keep a marriage intact after `his` promises about a first `first time sailing`, in truth rainy as cold weekend ...for `her`... It`s tragic: Because `He` did not lie: `let`s make a trip only in the bay` ...worsened by some unexpected bigger waves from outer sea, when `she` already got very wet..., before being `forced down to dark` for cooking, meanwhile `he`, of course captain, must steer the boat... Big smile, after watching this video: Torsten Schmidt, you are a wise man... :) Because this boat is life on water so much - for both ! As a Hobie-14-maniac since more than 30 years, gone through changing relationships after inviting women `on board` at bad weather... therefore: `Ladies and Gentlemen, if you can... Mind this boat ! It`s gendered, will say: It`s fair to both :) For `Him` (a wide machine-room) and for `Her` (warm, dry, pregnant again...). I suppose: a Sirius can, but must not be steered single-handed by lonesome cowboys, because `she` is still there, enjoying the trip as well :) ...as their children, what age ever ! And that`s brilliant. Congratulations, Sirius: What a wonderful ship !

Should be nice and powerful with an electric motor delivering instant torque to that prop-wash feature. Powered by an electric vehicle capacity battery recharged by solar, wind, and regen (big prop required) you are off the grid fully. A marine diesel should be more than the cost of such a battery pack, I would think, with almost no maintenance issues given a proper BMS.
Please find some generall information and test verdicts about the performance here: This are solidly built boats so not on the racy, light weight side but the hull/keel/ruder/rig design is as a modern cruiser/all-rounder/comfort in heavy weather/fun to sail design should be in our picture. The 15 or so sailing magazines testing her had obviously been pleased: Yachting Monthly: „Is this the best boat ever built?“, "It`s the highest score we’ve ever awarded, by some distance" (still valid), "the Sirius 35 DS is the best cruiser he’s ever tested.“ "8 out of 10 points in sailing performance(Chris Beeson), Bootshandel: “I was totally awestruck by the small tacking angles we achieved.

Thank you for your comment, the fact is, the windows are stronger than the hull! Safety, on our yachts, is of paramount importance. This is why we thoroughly researched how we could add hull windows, not just any old way, but in our Sirius way. We also didn’t want small portholes, we wanted windows! Like the hulls that reach 50-70mm thick of solid GPR laminate (depending on the model) or the 30mm thick marine plywood doors that are cut from the bulkheads, we build our yachts to last. If we were going to add windows in the hull we weren’t going to make them as strong as the hull, we would make them stronger. Before we could add large windows, we had to ensure the area around them was reinforced, this makes the area where the windows are the strongest area of the hull thanks to the extra structure added around the window frames. Then we looked into the material for the windows. For this, we chose ballistics-grade polycarbonate, the same material used on military vehicles, armoured vehicles, and police cars. But we’re Sirius so we use 12mm thick polycarbonate, thicker than you’d find on armoured cars and military vehicles etc. To make sure we had the right material we had a 140kg (300lb) body-builder attack the windows with a 3kg (6lb) axe, they remained intact. The hull and the windows were strong enough, but how the windows are fitted into the hull was just as important. We looked to the aeronautics industry, and we use the same bonding techniques used on aeroplanes and helicopters. When we say they are stronger than the hull around them, we are serious. But the strength isn’t what makes the hull windows special. It’s the view you get from them when you’re relaxing in our mid-cabin.
I´d love a Sirius 48 DS as well, please :-), but if we believe the many testing magazines our Sirius 40 DS already offers the equivalent interior space of a 47-48. But honestly, there will be a larger Sirius once...but we do struggle to understand where you will need more space. She already features 3 spacious double staterooms, two heads and the workshop. Apart from waterline length for more hull speed we are still searching for additional rectifications for going bigger. Maybe a dingy garage instead of the davits? … or three instead of 2 of the 3 cabins big enough to be master cabins? …more ideas anybody???
I do like the Garcia Exploration as well for it´s dedication to one purpose. It is acutally very comparible to our 35 DS! The Garcia Exploration is a fantastic boat in many ways but if you compare her usability and comfort inside and in the cockpit it’s a good example for how much space you lose with an aluminium construction. In this prospects it’s very much comparable with our Sirius 35 DS even being a 10feet longer (and accordingly more expensive) yacht. But there can a lot to be said about aluminum vs GRP, we think that GRP is the better suited and more versatile material for go-anywhere yachts under 60 feet
Finally, there is a video about the Sirius 35 DS out, which is not just Torsten in each and every picture, but someone knowledgeable (and so much nicer to look at) and to listen to ;-). It`s in German but Marie has done a very good job on the English subtitles you can switch on in the settings (in the right hand bottom corner of the video). If you like have a look to her Video “The perfect boat for sailing around the world: boat tour of the Sirius 35DS at boot 2020 boat show” ua-cam.com/video/NcVVsEnUBUc/v-deo.html&lc=z23rwfehynfqijkxb04t1aokglalr2efuitr2ccvdausbk0h00410.1582479078244963
We are glad she found us and liked it that much!
I dont suppose you'd like a representative in the USA would you? I'm a logistics specialist and will become available here in a year of two.
That was a good video, and she did indeed do a good job on the subtitles... But I still enjoy your demonstration videos, Torsten. Your love for what you do reminds me of my favorite teacher in high school--he taught the advanced math classes and even though I have never liked math he was so energetic and excited about the subject that I couldn't help but enjoy his classes. Same thing here, although in this case, I already enjoy sailing yachts. 🙂
What a fantastic demonstration of a fantastic boat. This could be my live aboard boat.
If I could ever afford this, this would be my next boat! Such incredible thought in every aspect of design! So light filled and beautiful! I keep watching your website for 2nd hand. Such perfect design!
100% corect
Amazingly well thought out design throughout, a real dream boat
Thank you very much!!! Much of this is form thousands of owners ideas. Credit to them as well!
I'm sure you are all extremely proud of this design, and rightly so..it looks phenomenal. Ergonomics with a capital E !
Jaw dropping in every aspect👏
Thanks a lot...and yes, we are proud of the outcome. Behind the design stands a big team who all work with love and passion and thousands of owners ideas. Lots of credit to them as well!

Excellent yacht-concept! I love it. All the details are perfect.
Thank you very much. I am glad you like it!
Mr. Schmidt you are a pleasure to watch and listen to. The boats are beautiful, one day I'm gonna get that 310 DS.
Thanks a lot! ...and you are always welcome!
This video is in my favorites permanently. One day I’m gonna get a yacht and sail the world, and if I won the lotto, first thing I’d do is book a flight to Germany and go to Seeblick :D
What a fantastic sailing vessel... for one person, would be very doable. Tremendous and well thought out interior.. great video
Thank you
It's really a state of art Mr.Schmidt.
Once again congratulations for your clever production.
Greetings from Istanbul.
Thank you!
Being a lover of catamarans, this extraordinary boat would be my choice for a monohull! The foredeck is wide, the cockpit is wide, the lounge is wide, the materials and construction look top notch! Just WOW!

@@SiriusYachts would like to see this boat (or the 40) in North America before I decide on a multihull!
@@peterhehn9511 you are most welcome!

@@SiriusYachts Will do, thank you.
So well designed, all the space used beautifully
Beautiful and so well thought through in its design.
This is a gorgeous boat, and a lovely design. Nobody ever uses quarter berths, and aft cabins almost always are used to store stuff. I prefer this workshop arrangement.
I would add a bow thruster.
This is how you show your boat.
Thanks a lot for this nice compliment! It´s my pleasure ....and very easy to get enthusiastic about ;-)
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK - You have redefined 35 design for me !! Cheers to you , Sir.
;-) Glad you like it!
Great presentation Sir, ("Emergency storage"= Two Beers, 😂); But seriously, What beautiful well disigned sailboats you make, I wish the best to your company and I hope you sell many of them and do well, keep up your great work 👍🏼.
Thank you very much! I just love what I do. I am glad you can notice it. On top of this, I am in the lovely position to have our boats built in the exact way I would do it for myself...and I do work for a company with 49 years of tradition and experience in doing just that.

Best design i've ever seen.
congratulation torsten, excellent video and boat !
Thanks a lot! Glad you like it! About the presentation: it`s just good fun and easy being enthusiastic about the boat ...and lucky having with Graham Snook, one of the best photographers on board, helps even more ;-)
Sirius Werft this is a memory of the construction of my boat, here in Argentina: ua-cam.com/video/6GaZmlTX8UY/v-deo.html
@@PlaneroDeLey Thanks for the nice film. Looks fast an fun...bit over powered by the weight of the outboard, thought!? Took my 24 feet boat halfway through europe with 2,5 and 4hp and no real lag of power ;-)
Excellent maneuverability. .
The more I watch the videos on these boats the more I like them. What do people think they would be like as a blue water sailor? Is there a way to put a cover over the cockpit?
Whenever one needs to see the benchmark, go to the German’s. Incredible
The maneuvering and storage are a major sell. Well done. Would love to see how y'all implement electric motors or a hybrid system for future designs as EM (electric motors), battery storage and so on, gets more mainstream.
Thanks for the compliments! Wind and water generators, solar power, LION Batteries are quite common in and on our boats by now and electric drives have been projected a number of times. It´s fantastic for some usages...still not for all or one needs to be very enthusiastic....to cope with the extra costs involved. Having a generator on board anyhow for other usage helps in the picture. With the car industry in it full speed not this is for sure becoming more affordable in the near future. The technique is all available
Diesel gen set + dual electric pod motors would be great!
The best video I ever seen. The lovelly
Prop wash :-D Nice boat, nice video. One can see u love what u are doing! Wirklich toll!
So glaube Ich auch! One can see that he loves what he's doing, and the boat is absolutely brilliant.
Danke schön!!!! I just love what I do. I am glad you can notice it. On top of this, I am in the lovely position to have our boats built in the exact way I would do it for myself...and I do work for a company with 49 years of tradition and experience in doing just that. If than that many owners bringing in so many ideas and experiences ...something like this could be the result
Very nice little boat!
Fabolous presentation.++
Nice, very maneuverable boat.
Beautiful beautiful great job 👍👍👍🙏🌷🌷🙏🙏
This my dream´s boat but I am pretty sure it is extremely expensive . I have a 91 Moody 35 and I will enjoy it some more years before considering the idea of calling Mr Schmidt to request a quotation!!
You are very welcome! ...also in a number of years, but with a Moody 35 you allready own a lovely and sloidly built boat! Do enjoy it as much as possible as soon this is possible again!
the work shop the cabins this is an amazing boat
I can hardly believe this yacht is only 35'. Such creative design makes me think "this must be a 40' boat and they are just hiding the extra 5' off-camera 🤔
Thank you. The hull is only 35ft, there is a little but more LOA with her bowsprit, and this was one of many interior oprtions we have.
I love it! Seems so practical, good looking and secure. I wonder if one can hire a Sirius in Sweden. 🤔
Very nice!!!
Voilier MAGNIFIQUE, présentation et commentaires TOP, un bonheur de regarder cette vidéo. 2 questions : peut on avoir un dessalinisateur et puis-je en voir un ( que vous auriez vendu ) sur La Rochelle en France ?
beautiful...wondering if you ever will do a bigger boat, like 45/48/50?
May I ask you Thorsten to assist me as harbor helmsman? Was missing the motor control on the inside ... well done
Another excellent presentation (as well as the 40 DS video). I'm never going to be in a position to buy, but I have a question: is there an option to fit an electric induction cooker? If so, would this require additional batteries or would the existing on board power be sufficient?
yes, induction cookers are possible but still unusual as few of them have the right fittings to hold pots and pans safe in rough sea and be cardanic. You also would than most likely go for an electric oven as well and this does require some additional power either in really big batteries (most likely LION) and/or an additional generator to keep up if you are not on shore power and want to slow cook your steak ;-) All possible and solar power, wind and water generators are common today but there are pros and cons to discuss at length before making this choices...
i love this Boat ! :)
Will you be at the Annapolis boat show in 2021? I will be there and I am interested in a 35ds in the future!
We're afraid we won't be exhibiting at Annapolis this year. To protect our customers, staff and the owners who help at show, we've taken the decision not to go this year. We hope to be there when it's safe for everyone.
We do welcome visitors to our factory as we can control numbers and minimise the risk and number of employees that you'll come in contact with.
We also have owners who are happy to demonstarte their boats and answer questions. please contact us via our website and we can put you in contact woth your nearest owner who can help. www.sirius-yachts.com
Something different from the normal mono haul. Looks like Moody DS. But the interior floor is not level flat makes it more prone to tripping . But overall 👏👏👏👏.
Want to outfit for x Atlantic...... Possible and how much?
Well, the boat itself is already built for it but then you will like to cover some areas pending on your route and priorities: Route is the first thing to address as for a one-off Atlantic crossing with the trade winds it`s not much special you really need in terms of equipment and its mainly safety features which need upgrading (especially if you like to join the ARC). If you want to go further or across Pacific and Indian Ocean it’s a different story. There you will have to think more about water maker, wind-vane self-steering and power consumption in general. We also do rain water collectors, SSB radio systems, dehumidifiers, air-conditions, filter systems, all kind of power generators. I would also have the cockpit arch for more solar cells, antennas and a Bimini which could be integrated into the arch or freestanding and could cover the whole cockpit, even while sailing, if we add a targa-style arch at the end of the deck saloon with the mainsheet on top. A number of this things are up for discussion pending on the type of sailing, sense of comfort and security and the route you have in mind. Lots of things can also be prepared and come in steps pending on how far away your starting point of the big journey is when you have her built. We like to be your advisors on this route and through the whole process, but we do generally built a lot of boats ready-to-go-anywhere directly after commissioning
As prices and standard equipment’s are changing over the years and we hope this video will still be up to date in 5 years from now we try not to post prices here. But please feel free to contact us via our website www.sirius-yachts.com and get the actual price list, additionals and what the standard price contains
These have got to be some of the best boats on the market? I wonder what it would be like sailing this across the ocean..
You could ask the owners of the yacht that will be at the 2020 Seattle boat show. They sailed their 40DS from Germany to Portugal, the Canaries and onto the Caribbean, before heading into the Pacific and to Galapagos, Hawaii and Vancouver. Or visit the facebook group ( facebook.com/groups/363599067887788/ ) of the owners of a 35DS that has just sailed from Cape Verde to Barbados.
Im just listening for the asmr incredible experience
Genial !
Danke für das große Kompliment! Ich freue mich dass es Ihnen gefällt! Viele der Ideen zur Aufteilung sind über die Jahre mit Eignern auf der ganzen Welt entwickelt und weiterentwickelt worden. Denen gebührt auch ein/mein großer Dank!
Very nice yacht, and would be my choice if I had the spare funds to buy one
I wonder where I could install my fireplace, lol. This yacht has everything else... why not?
Carbone monoxide might be an issue. But we did once built a Sirius 32 Ds with a Nordic 2 person dry sauna including an Swiss Bertschi oven ;-)
This would be great, I live in Scandinavia and would really want to prolong our sailing seasons by installing some sort of fireplace (seen some amateur installments on UA-cam, but I'm curious about more professional alternatives). Not sure if a webasto heater is sufficient enough for winters.. used it on some cold spring/autumn nights but not more than that.
Truly a remarkable design this, I love everything about it! Some real thought put into designing this!
A part of me would like a larger cockpit but I would give that up for that amazing saloon! The more I think about "traditional" designs the weirder they seem, this seems much more logical! You do not want to shut nature out completely! Sort of is a catamaran design on a monohull in many ways, really like it!
How is the sailing performance on this model?
Are you zerius ??
Hi torsten. I see this boat have throttle on the pedestal. Can it have the spinlock winch throttle?
Marius Hansen sure, you are most welcome! The Spinlock winch handle version comes as standard with the 35 and 40....and I absolutely love it! But as all our boats are made to measure the customers requirements, everybody can chose after her or his liking...and we make it work 😉
СПАСИБО ЗА ИНФОРМАЦИЮ!!!!!!!!ШИКАРНЫЙ ЭКСКУРС ПО ЯХТЕ!!!!!!!
Вы очень рады! Я рад, что вам это нравится!
Clever! And beuiful
Prova molto dettagliata ed intelligente. Gran barca.
Grazie mille!
These are my new favorite Sailboats. Now trying to figure out how to pay for one.
Glad you like them!
Having recently read about a couple of fatalities that occurred after a failure of the mainsail sheet in another Euro built boat that had the main sheet mounted in the cockpit, the location on the helm station in the Sirius DS gives me a bit of pause now. A traveler/traveler arch over the top of the cabin would seem to be safer. Was that ever considered?
This mainsheet arch connects to the cockpit floor through U-shaped stainless steel reinforcements on a surface of 0,6 m by 1,3 m and is made of 42 mm thick walled stainless steel tube calculated for it. For those seeking full sun protection everywhere in the cockpit, even while sailing, we do offer a targa-style cockpit arch above the deck saloon. This has also the mainsheet attached on top which than could be operated by a remote controlled rewind winch. We dont offer a german mainsheet system, like you are referring to
Und a 'lockur ' for 'spare partz' lol 😅 ... Any recomendations ?
Any thoughts on equipping it with an electric motor?
LION Batteries are quite common in our boats by now and electric drives have been projected a number of times. It´s fantastic for some usages...still not for all or one needs to be very enthusiastic.... I have many more thoughts on them. What`s your perspective or questions?
I like the idea of a silent motor but I'm not a fan of lithium's toxicity or its flammability. Also, a diesel engine can be used to generate electricity on calm/cloudy days. I don't know how practical it would be to do a diesel generator paired with an electric prop motor and Lion battery bank, but it might make the neighbors happier if you have to motor around in early morning/late night. Certainly an electric drive would allow at least some motoring in the event of fuel shortage if you equip sufficient solar/wind generators.
I am afraid this is all hypothetical anyway as I am nowhere near able to consider purchasing a yacht. Maybe when I retire? Ah, but it is fun to dream.
Who else was having a heart attack while he was maneuvering!!
There some even more frightening vids around 😂
The Main Thing I am wondering: Where you put the Dingi ? When you store it on the Roof of the Saloon, you pretty can't see anything in Front...
Some yachts have been built with davits, other have dinghy pumps installed in lockers, some owners pull them up onto the bathing platform.
Manoeuvring without wind is easy! Jajaja. Excellent yacht!
Nice little boat for a couple :) how much that unit on the video??

Looks like a great design. Is it a world cruiser?
Who is the designer?
We have an in-house-design-team which makes most of the interior and technical parts in 3D, but the construction itself like lines and calculation is made by Marc-Oliver von Ahlen who I could highly recommend! yachtdesign-va.de/
What is her cruising speed
is this vessel for sale in the North American market yet? Canada?
Yes, absolutely. Our boats are available all around the world and been sold to 28 different countries by now. But we like to work directly with all our customers (and therfore do not have distributors) as we think this is to your best benefit: a. we like to build a live long relationship with our customers; b. we know our boats and many versions and possibilities best, c. you spare a lot of money for the dealership, and d. we are the most competent partner for all your questions and service requirements. .....but saying this: our customers in all this sailing areas are still our best ambassadors!
We would be happy to bring you in direct contact with owners in the US and Canada.
I would have happily invited you to meet us directly to the recently cancelled boat show in Vancouver next February...but we do have customers in Canada with boats you might be able to visit (in 28 different countries by now) and in Canada. One 35 for example was launched in Montreal, now sailing in the golf of Sankt Lorenz and a Sirius 40 DS (which have been collected by their Canadian owners in Germany and sailed straight back to Vancouver via Canary islands, Caribbean, Panama Canal, Galapagos, Micronesia, Hawaii a few years back) can be seen in Vancouver (and has been at the Seattle boat show in 2020)
Erst wenn zu hervorragend beherrschtem Handwerk Liebe und Leidenschaft hinzukommt erreicht man derart überragende Resultate. Mit Worten aus meinem Berufszweig: Perfektion, Persönlichkeit und Leidenschaft: das ist wahre Kunst, die das Herz bewegt!
P.S. Hätte ich das nötige Kleingeld, würde ich den „Pott“ eher gestern als heute bestellen!
Wow, tausend Dank für das tolle Kompliment! Es freut mich, dass das sichtbar war. Wenn man dann zusätzlich ein hervorragendes Team hat, welches auf Basis einer nunmehr 50-jähriger Tradition und Erfahrung mit Herzblut Yachten für Eigner bauen kann, die ihrerseits mit Freude all Ihre Erfahrungen und Wünsche einbringen …und diese Yachten exakt so gebaut sind, wie man dies für sich selber machen würde…kann so etwas das Ergebnis sein ;-) ...und man weiß ja nie...by the way: derzeit gibt`s gerade 3 spannende Gebrauchte 310er am Markt www.sirius-werft.de/wpsirius/de/gebrauchtyachten/
Just a really small point but the symbol “-“ in context of your web address should be pronounced “dash” and not “minus”
Thanks, I´ll try to improve all the time ...but old habits die hard ;-)
@@SiriusYachts lol
I can't see any answers answered but still, are there any polar charts awailable for 35ds?
I am sorry there aren´t. I noticed that you will get some for real cruising boats, but normally they are only made for racing boats built and sailed on minimum weight and in the same sail configuration. The programs are made for IMS-racing-yachts. The tools getting this charts are not laid out for non planing cruising sail boats built heavier the race boats with solid materials to last and equipped very differently with equipment, keel and rig configurations. But if you like to judge the sailing performance I am happy to list you some quotes from sailing magazines...
OMG. did he just step off that boat and start walking around in the shallows????
Quite impressive the manuevabily
On a twin keel rudder usealy have less maneuverability what's a twin Keel rudder Wow I'm sold
thanks! You are right: its literally child’s play: on test sails all people on board including kids 10+ will do this after 10 min and a short instruction!
just Wow!
Glad you like it!
Like the concept of this boat with two caveats. 1. I don’t like not having any cover over the entrance to the saloon in bad weather. 2. No cover over the cockpit is also not my cup of tea.
Me too but if you watch the video on how these boats are made the graphics displayed on the computer in the design department show a model with bimini and cover.
Yes, we have options for gear holder cockpit arches, targa-style arches, enclosures and Biminis and sun covers for partly or full sun protection. You can either opt for a freestanding, or an in an cockpit arch at the back integrated Bimini for the aft part of the cockpit above and around the helms man position. This could be extended in harbours or anchorages to cover the front part of the cockpit as well, when not sailing. Have a look at 1:00 and 1:50 onwards in: ua-cam.com/video/MQgRIVw-kPg/v-deo.html There is also comes a simple cover dirctly covering the sliding hatch as standard.
For those seeking full sun protection everywhere in the cockpit, even while sailing, we do offer a targa-style cockpit arch above the deck saloon. This has also the mainsheet attached on top which than could be operated by a remote controlled rewind winch. With this setup you could shade the full cockpit while sailing either in connection to a free standing or integrated Bimini. It’s a very nice feature for very sunny areas and living on board all year round...but works against rain as well ;-) ....and could easily closed in front with a kind of a transparent Sprayhood. If it`s just the cockpit enclosure this can be lower and independed from any arches.
If you like, here you could see more about the different cockpit arch and Bimini versions.: facebook.com/pg/SiriusYachts/photos/?tab=album&album_id=125880195593720
There are options for full enclosures as well
Seems nice. When will there be a test or review?
There have been about 15 or so sailing magazines testing her .....and had obviously been pleased: Yachting Monthly: „Is this the best boat ever built?“, "It`s the highest score we’ve ever awarded, by some distance" (still valid), "the Sirius 35 DS is the best cruiser he’s ever tested.“ "8 out of 10 points in sailing performance(Chris Beeson), Bootshandel: “I was totally awestruck by the small tacking angles we achieved. To convince myself, I checked the results by tacking over and over again. She tacks through less than 80°", Palstek: “The Sirius 35 DS is not only convincing as a high quality, seaworthy and well equipped cruiser, but also is agile and easy to handle even in strong gale conditions. She is a well-controlled sailing boat with a surprising potential for speed.“ There are more test verdicts in our brochure at www.sirius-werft.de/wpsirius/en/yachten/35ds/prospekt/. I hope you will have a chance to experience it in the future for yourself. You are very welcome!
Will you be at the Fort Lauderdale boat show?
We're afraid not. We had hoped to exhibit at Southampton, and Annapolis this year, and Düsseldorf, Seattle and Vancouver boat shows early in 2022, but as of Ocyober 2021, our next show will be 27-29th May 2022 at our home boat show, the Hamburg Ancora Yachtfestival. This is Germany’s biggest in-water boat show and we look forward to seeing everyone again soon.
In the meantime, we welcome visitors to our yard where we have all the models available for sailing. If visiting us is not convenient, we have a vast network of customers who keep their yachts in many different parts of the world. Many have kindly said they are happy to connect with potential customers and show them around their yachts and discuss their experience of buying a Sirius; how they found working with us, the process of deciding the layout that worked best for them and why, as well as their ownership of a Sirius.
If you would like to visit us or find out the location of your nearest owner who is happy to show you their yacht, please get in touch via our website HTTP://sirius-yachts.com and we’ll happily do all we can to get you on board a Sirius as soon as possible.
Is the saildrive electric, gas or diesel?
As standard, we use a diesel engine. We are seeing an increase in enquiries about electric propulsion and we're developing a 40DS with twin electric drives that will propel and generate.
How much?

Single handed yachts may help, to keep a marriage intact after `his` promises about a first `first time sailing`, in truth rainy as cold weekend ...for `her`...
It`s tragic: Because `He` did not lie:
`let`s make a trip only in the bay` ...worsened by some unexpected bigger waves from outer sea,
when `she` already got very wet..., before being `forced down to dark` for cooking,
meanwhile `he`, of course captain, must steer the boat...
Big smile, after watching this video: Torsten Schmidt, you are a wise man... :)
Because this boat is life on water so much - for both !
As a Hobie-14-maniac since more than 30 years, gone through changing relationships after inviting women `on board` at bad weather... therefore:
`Ladies and Gentlemen, if you can... Mind this boat !
It`s gendered, will say: It`s fair to both :)
For `Him` (a wide machine-room) and for `Her` (warm, dry, pregnant again...).
I suppose: a Sirius can, but must not be steered single-handed by lonesome cowboys,
because `she` is still there, enjoying the trip as well :) ...as their children, what age ever !
And that`s brilliant.
Congratulations, Sirius: What a wonderful ship !
I need new information or solar energy ~♡♡♡

Should be nice and powerful with an electric motor delivering instant torque to that prop-wash feature. Powered by an electric vehicle capacity battery recharged by solar, wind, and regen (big prop required) you are off the grid fully. A marine diesel should be more than the cost of such a battery pack, I would think, with almost no maintenance issues given a proper BMS.
I wonder how they Sail?
Please find some generall information and test verdicts about the performance here: This are solidly built boats so not on the racy, light weight side but the hull/keel/ruder/rig design is as a modern cruiser/all-rounder/comfort in heavy weather/fun to sail design should be in our picture. The 15 or so sailing magazines testing her had obviously been pleased: Yachting Monthly: „Is this the best boat ever built?“, "It`s the highest score we’ve ever awarded, by some distance" (still valid), "the Sirius 35 DS is the best cruiser he’s ever tested.“ "8 out of 10 points in sailing performance(Chris Beeson), Bootshandel: “I was totally awestruck by the small tacking angles we achieved.

I have seen people drifting cars but...
Super for Baltic. For world round sailing tooooo small.
Let me put a few dollars together and learn how to sail. Then I'll get this one.
you are very welcome!
Rubber Bullets? How about Rubber Biscuits?
preferable, I guess ;-)
Never, never in a GRP hull windows so close to the waterline. The rest is Fine all the way.
Thank you for your comment, the fact is, the windows are stronger than the hull!
Safety, on our yachts, is of paramount importance. This is why we thoroughly researched how we could add hull windows, not just any old way, but in our Sirius way. We also didn’t want small portholes, we wanted windows!
Like the hulls that reach 50-70mm thick of solid GPR laminate (depending on the model) or the 30mm thick marine plywood doors that are cut from the bulkheads, we build our yachts to last. If we were going to add windows in the hull we weren’t going to make them as strong as the hull, we would make them stronger.
Before we could add large windows, we had to ensure the area around them was reinforced, this makes the area where the windows are the strongest area of the hull thanks to the extra structure added around the window frames. Then we looked into the material for the windows. For this, we chose ballistics-grade polycarbonate, the same material used on military vehicles, armoured vehicles, and police cars. But we’re Sirius so we use 12mm thick polycarbonate, thicker than you’d find on armoured cars and military vehicles etc.
To make sure we had the right material we had a 140kg (300lb) body-builder attack the windows with a 3kg (6lb) axe, they remained intact.
The hull and the windows were strong enough, but how the windows are fitted into the hull was just as important. We looked to the aeronautics industry, and we use the same bonding techniques used on aeroplanes and helicopters.
When we say they are stronger than the hull around them, we are serious. But the strength isn’t what makes the hull windows special. It’s the view you get from them when you’re relaxing in our mid-cabin.
1 more thing you should do. 45 or 50 !!!!!
I´d love a Sirius 48 DS as well, please :-), but if we believe the many testing magazines our Sirius 40 DS already offers the equivalent interior space of a 47-48. But honestly, there will be a larger Sirius once...but we do struggle to understand where you will need more space. She already features 3 spacious double staterooms, two heads and the workshop. Apart from waterline length for more hull speed we are still searching for additional rectifications for going bigger. Maybe a dingy garage instead of the davits? … or three instead of 2 of the 3 cabins big enough to be master cabins? …more ideas anybody???
:)

Garcia 45
I do like the Garcia Exploration as well for it´s dedication to one purpose. It is acutally very comparible to our 35 DS! The Garcia Exploration is a fantastic boat in many ways but if you compare her usability and comfort inside and in the cockpit it’s a good example for how much space you lose with an aluminium construction. In this prospects it’s very much comparable with our Sirius 35 DS even being a 10feet longer (and accordingly more expensive) yacht. But there can a lot to be said about aluminum vs GRP, we think that GRP is the better suited and more versatile material for go-anywhere yachts under 60 feet
