Introducing the New Twin-Keel, Deck Saloon Sirius 40DS

The German-built Sirius brand is not well known in North America, but in Europe the company has quickly earned a reputation for designing and building innovative family cruising boats of exceptional quality. The new 40DS is now the company’s flagship. It is packed with interesting and innovative design elements, starting with the twin keel standard configuration. The two keels, side by side, combined with the rudder, allow the boat to stand on its own three feet when the tide goes all the way out. There are other more conventional keel options but the twins are a unique Sirius feature. The boat has a large comfortable cockpit and instead of twin wheels, the single helm pedestal articulates from side to side, which opens up the passageway fore and aft and allows the helms-person to steer from either the high or low side of the boat.
