About Vivere

<p class="ql-align-center"><strong>ON DISPLAY AT THE ANNAPOLIS SAILBOAT SHOW | D-DOCK | OCTOBER 15-18</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>VIVERE</strong> is a 2011 Southerly 57RS Raised Saloon Cutter, designed by renowned naval architect <strong>Ed Dubois</strong> and built by <strong>Northshore Yachts in the UK</strong>. As the flagship of the Southerly variable-draft range, the 57RS was conceived to combine true ocean-crossing capability, shallow-water freedom, elegant raised-saloon living, and sophisticated shorthanded sailing systems, all with the feel and finish of a much larger yacht.</p><p><br></p><p>The design brief is immediately apparent: <strong>VIVERE</strong> was built for owners who want to sail far, live aboard in first-class surroundings, and explore anchorages that most yachts of this size can only dream of reaching.</p><p>Her hydraulic swing keel gives her an extraordinary <strong>4' draft with the keel raised and 10'9" fully deployed</strong>, allowing her to move effortlessly between shoal-water cruising and serious offshore sailing. With the keel down, she gains the lateral resistance, stability, and windward performance expected of a deep-draft ocean-going yacht. With the keel raised, she can access shallow anchorages, rivers, bays, and tucked-away harbors far beyond the reach of most 57-foot yachts.</p><p><br></p><p>Twin rudders, a long waterline, fine entry, beam carried well aft, and a substantial grounding plate contribute to a yacht that is remarkably stable offshore, easy to manage, and unusually versatile for her length. She can also be safely grounded on her keel pad and twin rudders, an extraordinary advantage for exploring remote cruising grounds.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>ON DECK</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>VIVERE</strong> offers a large, secure aft sailing cockpit designed for comfortable entertaining and easy shorthanded operation. The cockpit comfortably accommodates 10 guests and features twin carbon-fiber wheels, redundant helm electronics, push-button sail handling, and excellent visibility.</p><p><br></p><p>Bow and stern thrusters provide exceptional control in close quarters. A hydraulic transom door opens to a private <strong>beach-club-style platform</strong>, while the hydraulic tender garage houses her <strong>2025 Williams 285 Turbo Jet tender</strong>.</p><p>The teak decks and stainless-steel hardware have been exceptionally well maintained and present beautifully. Generous side decks and excellent access to the foredeck make moving around the yacht safe and effortless. Two forward-facing <strong>Gin &amp; Tonic seats</strong>, positioned port and starboard at the transom, provide an especially inviting place to enjoy the view underway or at anchor.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>THE RAISED SALOON</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Inside, <strong>VIVERE's</strong> Raised Saloon is stunning, bright, spacious, and commanding. Dubois' signature teardrop windows flood the interior with natural light while providing extraordinary visibility from the elevated living areas.</p><p>The interior, styled by <strong>Rhoades Young</strong>, combines Crown Cut teak joinery with leather and stainless-steel accents to create an atmosphere that feels much more like a superyacht than a conventional semi-custom cruising yacht.</p><p>The result is a sophisticated yet genuinely practical interior designed for extended time aboard, whether crossing an ocean or spending weeks exploring remote anchorages.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>SYSTEMS &amp; UPGRADES</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>VIVERE</strong> has been thoughtfully and extensively updated, including a <strong>2023 150 HP Yanmar 4LV150 diesel</strong>, Lithionics lithium house batteries, 800W solar array, DC watermaker, updated B&amp;G electronics, Starlink, recent drivetrain improvements, bow and stern thrusters, and a new Code Zero.</p><p><br></p><p>Her extensive <strong>summer 2026 shipyard period</strong> included significant work to the mast, keel, hydraulics, hull, mechanical systems, and cockpit.</p><p><br></p><p>For an owner seeking serious blue-water capability, high-end liveaboard comfort, and the freedom to explore shallow cruising grounds without sacrificing sailing performance, <strong>VIVERE is a rare and compelling offering.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>KEY FEATURES</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Flagship Southerly 57RS Raised Saloon Cutter designed by <strong>Ed Dubois</strong> and built by <strong>Northshore Yachts</strong></li><li>Hydraulic variable-draft swing keel: <strong>4' raised / 10'9" fully deployed</strong></li><li>Ability to safely ground on keel pad and twin rudders</li><li>Keel systems rebuilt <strong>9/2026</strong></li><li><strong>2023 Yanmar 4LV150, 150 HP</strong> diesel</li><li>Approximately <strong>650 hours as of 10/2026</strong></li><li>ZF63A transmission</li><li><strong>2023 bow and stern thrusters</strong>, rebuilt</li><li>Selden carbon-fiber mast with triple spreaders</li><li>Mast removed, refitted and refinished <strong>7/2026</strong></li><li>In-boom furling with Solent double-headsail rig</li><li>Lithionics <strong>1,240 Ah / 24V lithium house battery system</strong></li><li><strong>800W solar array</strong>, installed 2023</li><li><strong>2025 Victron MPPT solar controller</strong></li><li><strong>2025 Starlink Standard 4X</strong> with Trio Flat Mount Gen 3</li><li><strong>2025 Code Zero</strong> on Furlex furling system</li><li><strong>2026 B&amp;G Zeus SR-12 MFD displays</strong> and updated B&amp;G instrumentation</li><li><strong>2025 Schenker Zen 150 24V watermaker</strong>, approximately 40 GPH</li><li><strong>2024 large aft sailing cockpit</strong> with updated soft goods</li><li><strong>2025 Williams 285 Turbo Jet tender</strong> with 90 HP Rotax jet engine</li><li>Hydraulic tender garage</li><li>Hydraulic transom door / beach-club stern platform</li><li>Three-stateroom, two-head layout</li><li>Full-beam forward owner's suite</li><li>SAIL Magazine <strong>2011 Best Boats</strong> flagship monohull winner</li><li>A compelling alternative to the usual sisterships seen in the anchorage or on the docks</li></ul> <br> <i> Resolute Yachting is pleased to assist you in the purchase of this vessel.
