Lady May is a fast, capable, and efficient pilothouse yacht with classic values and remarkable sea-keeping capabilities. Owned by one family since new in 2013, she planes at 9 knots, cruises comfortably at 24 knots (consuming just 60 l/h), and reaches a top speed of 30 knots.
Constructed with enhancements from earlier models, Lady May features a striking dark blue exterior with heat-resistant resin and was the first Southstar to have AllWood applied to combings and toerails, a varnish product that lasts as long as paint. The interior offers a master cabin forward and a versatile queen berth in the port cabin, with double bunks that convert into a seating area.
Powered by a 480hp Yanmar engine, she offers smooth cruising and exceptional efficiency. Built by Southstar37, Salthouse Boatbuilders, she measures 11.2m in length, with a beam of 3.9m and a draft of less than 0.5m, opening up shallow water anchoring and cruising unavailable to any other vessel. Recent upgrades include new batteries and 270W solar panels.
Amenities include a stainless Manson anchor, sleeping arrangements for six, an Isotherm 200L fridge/freezer, and a Corian benchtop. Bathing facilities feature an electric toilet and internal and deck showers. A comprehensive NMEA network provides engine data, fuel flow, speed, and tank levels.
Lady May is ideal for both couples cruising and adventurous expeditions, combining performance, comfort, and low maintenance. Contact us for more details and to arrange a viewing.
