570 DS Custom Line

The Nordship 570 DS can be custom built to be your perfect long-distance offshore deck saloon yacht. Whether you sail as a couple, with a professional skipper and crew, perhaps you would like to offer skippered charters or sail with your family and friends, the 570 DS can offer personalisation, quality and comfort in abundance. We know how to personalise yachts for their owners, we have been custom-building for decades and with a 17m hull, we can offer you more space than ever before. The cockpit is large and as well as being practically laid out to make it easy to sail a yacht of this size, and the forward seating provides a comfortable al fresco dining area for up to 10 guests.

The 570 DS has been designed to be easy to handle and simple to sail. Although she is 57ft (17m) she can be sailed like a yacht 20ft smaller using modern, well-proven sail handling technology. She is designed with twin rudders to give her a great feel on the helm, being easy to steer and responsive, making her enjoyable to the helm. Should you prefer a rudder with a skeg, or a single spade rudder, you can have that instead. We also offer several different keel configurations depending on your cruising aspirations. No part of the yacht can’t be customised. We have added hull windows, extended cockpits and converted our yachts from twin wheels to single wheel for our owners.

A few steps down, through the companionway, the raised deck saloon offers any number of layouts to takes advantage of the panoramic views through the large wraparound windows. This area could be devoted to entertaining and relaxation, creating a vast social space to be used whatever the weather. Alternatively, this can be the focus of life on board with the galley located here to make the most of social living and entertaining. If you’d rather the galley were less visible and more usable while ocean cruising then it can be located in the spacious walkway between the saloon and the sumptuous full-beam owner's suite aft. If, as the owner, you’d prefer more privacy and less noise from those in the galley, then it can be located forward of the saloon. We don’t tell you where your galley should be, we believe you should be able to choose the location you want.

We don’t tell you how many berths there should be, or where you should locate them. As always, we are on hand to guide and advise you how to get the best from the space available but you can choose to have king- or queen-sized double berths, vee, twin, bunk or Pullman single berths. Perhaps an office or study with an occasional Pullman berth would suit your needs. You can have crew cabins, navigation nooks, secluded snugs or dainty dinettes.

You can come to us with a complete idea or just some thoughts about how you’d like your new deck saloon yacht to serve you and we can do the rest. We can incorporate your ideas from a lifetime of cruising, or you can take our suggestions and adapt them.
