- The yacht delivery of a Sirius 40 DS from Palma, Mallorca to Plymouth, UK.
We provided a highly experienced and qualified RYA Ocean Yachtmaster as skipper and two very experienced crew to deliver this beautiful Sirius 40 DS.
The owner was delighted with our service and said the following:
"“Halcyon were professional, friendly, polite and helpful throughout. I would happily recommend Halcyon to anyone and also use them again myself. The skipper gave me confidence from the very first pre-voyage contact right through to final handover."”
The music featured is "Summer of 1984" by RKVC, "Dolphin-Esque" by Godmode, "Shake" by Anno Domini Beats, "Broken Drum Machine" by Godmode and "Dream Lagoon" by Chris Haugen.
I have been watching every video I can find on Sirius yachts. The deck salon and 'height where you need it and not where you don't' design philosophy is very intriguing to me. I grew up day sailing on a Newport 28 in the Chesapeake and later Lake Michigan; no one wanted to be below deck under weigh. Since that time I deployed aboard a few carriers and usns in the Pacific. I've been landlocked since 2016... I have been dreaming about a 35DS with the bilge keels and bumming around the tropics.
;-) ...I might be a bit biased, but I do always wonder who would build ...or buy ...or even rent a holiday cottage …..overlooking a nice lake .................. with no windows???
...and you do get the funniest blank looks if you try to tell a random not-sailor that the special thing on this boat is - that you can actually look out of it - if you are inside - ? -
...I do have the same dream like you!!!! maybe sometime -

@@SiriusYachts it's amazing it's like 30 years of evolution on the colvic countess wheelhouse bilge keel or a moody 35. There the 2 boats I'm looking at hopefully buying. This is the one I dream of.
Only a twin keel is truly go anywhere.
Very hard to find a used Surius 40ds
Ha! I have been a liveaboard on two Newport 30's for the last six years. The Sirius 40' has been my dream for a number of them! Some day!!!
Sirius should call her their Tardis model. Amazing design which activates my "everything on its place" gene.
"Tardis" makes me smile! It is one of the "very British terms" I had to learn at my first UK boat shows. At the Southampton boat show in 2010 I had a real problem when displaying the 310 on her world premiere. There was a Yachting monthly test of our Sirius 35 DS just out, very prominently asking on the title page of the boat show issue of the magazine: "Is this the best boat ever built" and giving us the "...highest score we’ve ever awarded, by some distance". Nearly everybody coming out of the 310 DS on display at the show commented on how unbelievable the space was, we got into this 35 feet boat. After a while it got "kind of tiring" ;-) to point out to all this visitors, that this was the 310 they just have seen and not a 35 ;-)...when searching for a name of our first ever build 40 DS, "Tardis" was ranking high but was advised to us as too "smalish-boxy" and so "Bright Star" won...
Another great video, I liked the idea you had of rescuing those plastic cans, the coast guard too!
lovely boat !
Sirius yacht is seriously great! Very well thought through design.
Thanks a lot. 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!
@@SiriusYachts For me Sirius 35DS is simply the best. How to get Sirius In Brazil? Is there any seller here? Please contact me in osc.dani@hotmail.com
@@oscarschulz9362 Thank you very much for this great statement! We would love to see more boats in Brazil. I have heard, that Brazil seems to have very striced rules on exporting sailing yachts? Otherwise our boats are available all around the world and been sold to 28 different countries by now. We like to work directly with all our customers 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. We will send you more information via mail...
@@SiriusYachts You are really fantastic. This sales and after sales policy is one that everyone should follow. Unfortunately our import rates are from another planet !!! Anyway, I'm sure that one day I'll have my Sirius. It is the dream of a lifetime and dreams are priceless.
i watched the guy who makes these Sirius yachts throw one around the marina to show its handling and the interior tour was remarkable. Good boats!
Thank you very much for this nice compliments! My pleasure....but on test sails all people on board including kids 10+ will do this manoeuvres after a short instruction and within 10 min as good! The boat makes it really easy!
Great vid. Enjoyed that. Love the dolphins.
I love sirius boats. The whole past year I was dreaming about a Catamaran and then I saw this boat. Such a cool design. Everything though out so well.
I agree. I especially like the "man" cave that is practically hidden in the design. I just need to find where I put that wining lottery ticket so I can place my order 😊👍
@@tomwilliams8675 If you happen to find it - we are here ;-). It does make maintenance and retrofitting much easier...and everything can have a place with nobody else fiddling through ;-) ...but it´s not the most important design feature on this boat ;-)

Im with you, ladt two years i have been dreaming of a catamaran. But this and a moody both make me think otherwise is possible
Great video, beautiful boat.
One of the best boat in his category. It’s like a Swiss knife. So many good ideas. Difficult after that to buy a beneteau 😂
Just discovered your channel! Nice video. Seeing that you are in the unique position to sail many different monohull yacht makes and models, have you ever thought about doing a separate video rating each yacht on: design, performance/handling, comfort, build quality? I think a lot of viewers would find your observations/insights to be of value... And this would attract more viewers/subscribers to your channel. Just a thought.
Excellent vid
Definitely buying one of these when I win the lottery
You are very welcome! ...and please keep buying those tickets ;-)
@@SiriusYachts That broken mount is not a bad thing. It means you specked the boat with a bad ass autopilot that can take on the big weather.
@@lightning9279 Even if there is some laminate visible which is not from the building process I would still state: it´s safe to say that it was not up for the job! The 45mm fully laminated block where the bolts sit in was for sure, but the bonding in place and glassing in obviously wasn´t. We have been in direct telephone and mail contact with the crew and owner to assist after it happened. The delivery crew has handled it expertly and excided our and the owners expectations. Thanks to them I am sure it´s better than new now. This said: These yachts were especially developed for blue water cruising and rough weather conditions, and always have been! There have been an number of curcumin-navigations on older yachts even - some additional ocean 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 and it is the first case like this ever happened
Hallo...how much cost for delivering to indonesia....can you explain me about the delivering cost or free cost if customers bought the boat from the Sirius company...I hope some answers from you ...thanks for info...
Hello
What did you think about this sailboat ?
Good for sailing or more a fifty ?
Thanks 😎😎
Curious what you think of the sailing qualities of this unusual yacht.
Your delivery voyage videos are getting much better as you have introduced some of the story. What did you and the crew think of the boat in terms of its sailing characteristics? I think the concept and design is remarkable and they are easy to judge, sailing characteristics less so but would be interested in your view.
Was the auto-pilot an after market fit or OEM from Sirius? Was this an equipment issue - either too much ‘stiction’ in the steering gear, too much force being generated by the auto-pilot, limit switches set incorrectly - or just an inadequate attachment/bonding to structure.(Sirius Werft ? 😉)

@@SiriusYachts Thank you for responding in detail, that speaks volumes for both your integrity and deserved reputation.😀👍⛵️
@@normanboyes4983 Thank you! Your are most welcome!
1:35 and 1:41 wow this is a little disappointing. I had assumed Sirius yachts were built like a brick house based on my research
Yes, this was indeed dissapointing. Even if there is some laminate visible which is not from the Sirius building process, I would still state: it´s safe to say that it was not up for the job!

This very yacht had covered 6 years of sailing in 7 countries before this happened…
What was the cause of the damage to the auto pilot system? Looks like a huge area of concern for anyone looking to own one of these boats.

I would love to deliver for you
Please don't talk over the music. Actuallly no music is the best.
Hey none of those dolphins wearing masks , Have to let the Manchester police know about this , lol
Why would drug traffickers throw empty fuel jugs overboard? Also, if they don’t want them on their boat, why take them on yours?
Plastic cans shouldn’t be left in the water! It’s a mess!
I didn't really understand this bit of the story either. It left me wondering what had happened there and a bit of explanation could certainly be helpful to clarify this.
I think but I might be wrong but it's more to do with 'people' traffickers rather than drug. The RIB's they use are on a one-way trip with no need to save the cans.
Likely human traffickers, as philkibble mentioned. Also, picking them up is probably just tidying up the sea, as many decent people would do.
@@donwp but then don’t you look like a drug trafficker or something?
