Discovery 55

• Add to quote

I tried to do a search on this form , but for some reason it wouldn't pull up the keywords Discovery 55, so I have to ask my question here . But if this boat has been reviewed somewhere on this form , can anyone help me find the thread ? My question is this , Discovery 55 review . I have a friend that's trying to talk me out of this boat ..because of what he calls poor Hull design , that it doesn't handle rough Seas well. Or that it takes a stronger wind to push it. versus other similar-sized yachts. Any Discovery 55 owners out there , or people with experience on this vessel, that can reply ? One of my main interest in upgrading to this discovery 55 is that I've heard the company is very easy to work with , in designing the boat purchase. I trying to ignore my friend .because he sold on only one name brand boat.. ( His boat's manufacturer of course ) so he has a very biased opinion. It's a big purchase , but now that I've sold my boat I'm anxious to move up to my next boat .. .. Coming out of a 38 footer that I frequently solo sailed . I might be buying off more than I can chew , but at this point , mostly I was looking for feedback on the Discovery 55 hull design , and handling characteristics.  

Here's the thing, a boat like the Discovery 55 are made in very small numbers and so it will be hard to find people who have actually even been on one under way. Moreover, on a forum like this one, there are only a few folks who own boats of this general size and complexity and then a slightly larger group who have even sailed on boats this size. As a result, it will be very hard to find a review based on experience with these boats. It should be possible to perhaps get the name of a few Discovery 55 owners from Discovery Yachts and talk with them. You might also try to see if you can talk with the professional skippers or crews, on a Discovery 55 or perhaps a delivery skipper who has delivered one, since the professionals may be more impartial in their comments. For the rest of us, it is really hard to comment without knowing what you plan to do with the boat, or where you will be sailing her. It is also very difficult because personal taste plays a huge role in building a new semi-custom boat of this size. For example, based on my own personal taste, I look at the Discovery 55 and think that is a really outdated hull and rig design. The Discovery 55 would have been state of the art design circa 1975 but we have learned a huge amount about motion comfort, seaworthiness, and performance in the intervening years. To me a boat like the Discovery 55 would be harder to handle, less seaworthy, and way slower than a boat that was based on the design principals that came out during the 40 years that have followed. That is not to say that I personally am a fan of the most of the more modern design trends either. But since I personally lean towards boats that are easy to handle and offer great performance, even if I had the money and inclination to buy I boat of that size, the Discovery 55 would not even be on my list and it would be nearly impossible for me to figure out why someone would ever build a boat of that design in this day and age. But that only represents my own tastes and my own view point. Which gets back to the central point, that there is little that anyone (even a current Discovery 55 owner) can do to help you without knowing more about what you personally are trying to accomplish and why a boat like the Discovery 55 appeals to you personally. Respectfully, Jeff

Braavos, congrats on the new-to-you Southerly. Nice boats. I also like the Discovery line, I was aboard one in Annapolis during October's show. I could swear it was a 55 or close. It was sailed across the Atlantic for the show and was returning after the show. No doubt a capable hull. I'm sure there is truth to what Jeff H describes about design. He's a naval architect and knows his stuff. Whether it matters to the average bloke, like me, is a reasonable question and I'm pretty sure he would acknowledge it. Everything is a compromise.

Re-read my post of my reply to Jeff , I'm worried it sounds a little harsher than I meant it , sometimes written tone isn't a good reflection . Discovery has modified their hull design , especially in the last 3 years. I had originally had looked at the amel50. , amel 55 , . But I have read some reviews of owners , of the Southerly yachts.. and they seem to really really love their vessels ... Yes hull design is a compromise of different usage.. as I have recently retired and we plan on spending at least 2 seasons in the Caribbean , crossing over and spending 2 season and the Mediterranean. I'm compromising for a blue water boat for the Atlantic Crossing versus some shallow anchorage's in the Caribbean. We plan on living on board full-time For 4 seasons . With off periods , Of course , on the hard. .. I've looked at oyster , and hallberg-Rassy. , and Amel . .. for reasons I don't need to get into, I wanted to stay under 50 feet.. . It seems discovery has gone to wider Beams, on their popular yachts along with a few years, with other changes. .. they say that you don't pick the boat the boat picks you . Everyone seems to have their personal favorite , the broker that I've been working with has his own opinions, but for some reason my top two boats, that I've been drawn to were the Amel's and the discovery group. This Southerly 480 , comes closest to meeting my needs. .  

Discovery bought out the Southerly Yacht Company. It all in the same now , the 480 is basically the old southerly 47 , ( with a few modifications ) . I got a private message that said my reply to Jeff sounded harsh.. and now your reply said something about offended.. I wasn't offended by Jeff's reply, and didn't mean to offend jeff in Return , that was the last thing on my mind, so the tone of this thread is taking a Direction , that has me totally by surprise, and if I was able , I just delete this thread, because I was just asking a simple question .  

Not quite sure what you're asking Jeff. And I didn't understand 2/3's of what you wrote . I wasn't looking for that technical of a reply. . As to how I switch from a new discovery 55 to a Southerly 480.. Simple , I listened to people who were more knowledgeable than I was , that I've chosen to help guide me , in my selection , based on what I told them that my needs were .. it's a large cash purchase , a large investment .. but at this point I wish the hell I had never join this forum. ... if I offended you my apologies , and I will be studying your reply to increase my knowledge, thank you for your time , ... now let me figure out how to delete myself off this forum.  

Braavos, Please don't leave. As you have noted, the internet is a lousy conveyor of tone. At this point, I see no harm and no foul to all of the above and hope that you don't feel offended by my comments either. But at the heart of it, it sounds like you are entering into buying a new boat and at the same time seem to be suggesting that you are in a learning process. Forums like SailNet really are good places to kick around ideas and ask questions that come up along the way. Many of us have experienced the kinds of things that you are likely to ask about and are quite willing to try to be helpful. As to my perhaps too technical post, I am sorry if it is too technical to be of immediate use to you. Hopefully my explanation will make more sense to you if you discuss it with some of the people who are as you say "more knowledgeable than I was." All of us in this sport have had to learn from others at some point along the way, and places like this are also chances to give back to the sport. I am hoping that you will stick around to teach and be taught, to ask questions, and describe some of your experiences and so on. Having ridden shotgun in my mother's boat building and importing company, I typically suggest that there are few things in sailing that require more knowledge and experience than buying and commissioning a new boat. Your process will include invaluable lessons in what to do and what not to do. Bob Perry's thread on the Carbon Cutters was a great example of a thread that was jamb packed with lessons on designing and outfitting a boat from scratch. But all boat decisions include the idiosyncratic elements of taste and preference and of course those will be uniquely yours. Kumbaya and out, Jeff  

Kind of interesting that the other two boats the OP was considering in his original post are a masthead ketch and a masthead double headed sloop. Although new designs both tuck in at their sterns and have a fair bit of rocker although less than seen in the past. Really like the southerly. Enjoy. Please don’t leave the forum. JeffH is quite knowledgeable and generally gives more light than heat.  

Perhaps @Braavos would find these videos helpful? and regarding the Discovery 55;  

Thank you for the vedios , I have seen them , and have spoken to Distant Shores , over the internet. . I'm working with a broker , and contracted license captain. But thank you for your post. As to a previous comment made by someone else, as to why I had looked at totally different types of boats , perhaps you would understand. That when you have a wife , who picks out boats because they are , " pretty " you're viewing selection varies , lol ,  

Braavos. Hope you stick around and fill us in on the new boat commissioning process. No doubt many would learn from it. I got the process started many years ago and bailed to buy a near new boat instead. Long story. No doubt, the disconnect in tone and content with Jeff is the presumption on his part that most buyers of the boats you’re contemplating have a high level of understanding of boat design principals. I’m 100% certain that most do not. Nor do most luxury car buyers understand how cars are designed. Some aficionados in both camps do. It does, on the other hand, pay to listen to them. I loved the idea that the boat picks you. About as non-technical as it gets, but there is a lot of truth to it. You will need to love your boat, for it to ever be worth it. Once the boat picks you, best to learn as much as you can about it. One thing to look into a bit is how well Discovery/Southerly is doing financially. They make a nice product, but I’m not sure how many they sell. May be totally wrong, but I had the sense their combination was a life support move. Again, I could be wrong.  

Understand I gave the wife a short list too. Boreal, HR and Outbound. She picked the Outbound.  

To anyone that didn't follow Jeff's post - I highly recommend Bob Perry's book, "Yacht Design According to Perry." It goes through the technical stuff in relatively small digestible pieces, and intersperses it with great stories of how his designs of various eras came to be. https://www.amazon.com/Yacht-Design...=8-1&keywords=yacht+design+according+to+perry Maybe if you ask him nicely he will sign it for you. I'm sure there are good textbooks that Jeff and others can recommend but they may be quite dry and beyond the attention span of a lay audience.  

I think that the Southerly 480 will be a great boat, but it has a much smaller state room but is more modern and has a lifting keel. However the Discovery 55 is hardly out of date. Just go to the World Cruising Club results of their passages and you will see that Discovery 55's seem to out pace most of the other boats in the same class except the Hylas 54. I have bought a Discovery 55 and I am very happy with the build quality, the later the boat the better they are, hull number 30 onwards is the best choice for a used boat, but like any boat the manufacturers just improve them as they fond better ways of doing things. The Discovery 55 VS the Southerly 480 is all about comfort an independence. The 55 hold 1300l of fuel and 1000l of water. the Discovery 55 is a bioat built for a job, i.e. blue water cruising and does it very well, there are no right or wrong answers only choices. In a few years I can see a time when boats will have no gas on board and probably no generator and power will come from solar, wind, hydro and as a last resort the main diesel engine.  

Jeff-H - Thank you for the great description regarding the important details between the hull updates for the boats listed. This is helpful for me as I am collecting information as well. Best, Scott  

Purchase a "serious" yacht for the first time can be a real catch22. For someone with no serious experience about sailing, or the physics of design it can be a beauty contest selection where you defer to your chosen experts to steer you to a sensible boat. But once you commit to purchase you essentially forced to learn with a trial by fire. And there is a lot to learn... and it will take years. This learning curve may or may not determine when you embark on your offshore adventures. I think a prudent new skipper will learn pretty quickly how little they knew and how much they need to know. Selection of a boat with consideration to hull form, keel architecture, and rig / sail plan is very critical. The basics can be learned from many books out there. I suppose one assumption, underscored by Jeff's post is that hull, rig design and sail plan have been ADVANCING and for good reason - designed have learned from the school of hard knocks what's works better. I have to confess that I bought a new first boat with very very little knowledge and a lot of confidence and enthusiasm to learn. For me the process was about 5 years and involved all manner of "system upgrades" and equipment additions not to mention as much sailing in all conditions in Southern New England that I could get. Shiva has a fractional rig... and at the time of purchase I was unaware of the benefits of this sail plan. I learned pretty quickly and the points Jeff made are spot on. A masthead and fractional rig were offered at the time. I did not order a boat but bought the fractional that the importer had brought in to sell... so I didn't have the opportunity to sail each and see the difference. I think I was lucky and am a advocate for the fractional rig. However there are downside at anchor as the fractional will be more restless. Aesthetics are a personal matter, but things like no steps on the interior and no wide open spaces without hand holds all over the place are sensible choices for an offshore boat. The other important thing I found is a large dry cockpit is a blessing. Virtually all the time spent above decks is in the cockpit so it needs to work.. and that means also the ability to "stretch" out when sailing or at anchor. I see too many boats without this feature. My final comment is about the number of helm stations. Unless one is racing or one likes to manually helm... two helms are just no advantage and actually a disadvantage. More mechanical things to tend to, take up lots of cockpit space and add a lot of cost to the boat. People who cruise spend little time at the helm except for "fun conditions"... really challenging conditions or for photo ops. Challenging I define as conditions when a human can helm better than an AP. Regardless steering is tiring so most people are using their APs most of the time. May your passages be full of fair winds and following seas.... enjoy your new boat.

I completely agree with SO’s post on learning a new boat. Takes years, even if you’ve done it before. I was speaking to a delivery skipper about a problem he had aboard a boat he’d delivered dozens of times. Lost electrical power to a few systems, while underway. There turned out to be a fuse bank, separate from those behind the nav station, that were buried in an obscure place he never knew about. On the other hand, dual helms are a matter of personal preference, not a bright line. We find they allow the cockpit to be a better living space, as no one is ever climbing around the helm. On several hulls I’ve sailed with them, the aft section can be too wide to helm from the center and ever see around a salt sprayed dodger, so the dual helm is more functional. If anything, it is important to have autopilot controls at both helms and that does add cost. All depends.

I’ve been aboard a J boat with a single huge helm that had to be buried in the floor. Remind my self I spend 90% of my time at anchor.

While this is YEARS out of date and you will probably never read it AND it probably doesn't apply to all Discovery yachts- BUT the very boat you were on in Annapolis-was found so "unfit for its intended purpose" it had to be shipped back to the UK! Discovery was sued and they LOST and the owners of the yacht won £1.5 when they paid £1.375 for delivery of the new yacht. The delivery skipper had massive problems getting it over to the States. They won the suit in 2019 - well because nothing decent has happened in 2020 - we all know that by now- sigh.... I found this out because I was trying to research if the hulls were strong enough for ice since they are reinforced with kevlar. Hope you see this little tidbit of info.

Just adding my opinion to this very old post. Discovery 55 are great boats. Very comfortable to live on, very comfortable to sail in across oceans. And I would know because I sailed with my family across oceans in a Discovery 55. Two of us adults could sail her easily, and in addition, because so “tight” below, you aren’t going to get injured from falling down stairs or across a wide saloon when underway. Hardly needed to leave cockpit, no typical mast work to speak of, which was amazing for safety. We placed 2 whisker poles on mast so we could use two headsails for downwind,…brilliant and easy. We had small children who wouldn’t be able to reach normal handholds, but no worries, they were going to be fine in a Dicovery 55. Our dream boat. We do not regret our choice for a minute. Looking around at all other boats, only negative is that it is small for entertaining large groups of people at a time. But that isn’t what we wanted to do, so not a negative for us. It is designed so easy and sensible access for repairs, unlike many production boats. It didn’t fall apart like the production boats. It was fast as well. We did 4000 nm in 22 days.

Discovery 55 MkII – review and test

The discovery 55 has been around since 2000, and has established herself among the bluewater cruising elite..

The new MkII is an upgrade that features the original hull and rig, with some subtle changes to keep her contemporary 15 years on.

Sailing today’s verdict:.

If you are serious about bluewater cruising, then the Discovery 55 MkII  is a serious yacht for the job.

She has been incredibly carefully thought out and thoroughly fitted out with an eagle eye on quality.

For a couple, she’s a dream. People go sailing for all sorts of reasons, but I guarantee very few do it to look like a fool or end up having a row. The Discovery will ensure such incidents are kept to a minimum with her easy handling and spacious interior.

She also provides bags of comfort and feels reassuringly safe with her high ballast ratio and deep cockpit. You may baulk at the price, but unlike many yachts in this category, she comes fully kitted out and ready to sail away with an impressive inventory. Just choose which ocean you want to head to…

Discovery 55 Gennaker

Contemporary upgrade, fine detailing, living the dream, she sails 'nicely', the details, info heading.

Discovery 55

The drawings from Ron's office are beautiful. True, they are all computer generated, but they show the hand or finger of someone intent on producing the design as art.

The hull form is moderate with U-shaped sections forward and a small amount of deadrise aft at the transom. BWL is broad. There is a slight hint of reverse to the counter aft. There is a deep, molded-in sump in the way of the external lead keel. The keel is longish with a bulb. The rudder is hung on a half skeg with a considerable amount of balance area. Compare this to the Oyster rudder with no balance. The D/L is 246. This design shows a beautiful sheerline.

The sailplan shows an SA/D of 17.9 and you can arrange your foretriangle any way you like. All options include a self-tacking jib or staysail. Sailplan B is my favorite with an almost full-hoist, 90-degree self-tacking jib with a furling masthead genoa tacked to the stem.

In all cases the triple-spreader rig has spreaders swept to 23 degrees. The sheeting angle from the stem to the outboard edge of the self-tacking track is 10 degrees. This works on the wind, but once you bear off, it would be nice to have an additional 5 degrees to maintain a proper jib shape.

Ken Freivokh did the interior design work. If you read the megayacht magazines you will have heard of Ken's work. He's a master stylist. There are almost no surprises in this interior, a three-stateroom layout with two heads.

The galley is big and would be fun for a cook. The dinette shows rounded contours, but it also has some straight stretches. This will certainly work better than the nearly circular dinette.

Surprise! There's a pilot berth tucked under the side decks to starboard in the saloon. This is a sea berth and very unusual in this type of boat.

As usual with center-cockpit boats, the lazarette has been eroded to the point where it almost doesn't exist. The fo'c'sle is adequate but not big. Note the location of the bow thrusters. Two bow thruster options are shown. While this interior is basically normal in its components, I think it shows a heightened level of design finesse without being novel.

The deck shows narrow side decks. I like broad side decks, but in a design like this they interfere with the interior and particularly the layout of the center cockpit. This cockpit is big and, like the Oyster's, divided into two sections, although the Discovery 55 has only one wheel. One particular advantage of the narrow side decks can be seen in the room on the cabintrunk in way of the cockpit where there is sufficient space to get in hatches between the two winches. Overall deck styling is straight out of the Oyster book. It's a good-looking boat that to my eye has a little more snap and appeal than the Oyster.

Discovery 55

Discovery 55 is a 54 ′ 9 ″ / 16.7 m monohull sailboat designed by Ron Holland and built by Discovery Yachts between 2000 and 2019.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be.

What makes a good bluewater yacht? Discovery thinks it has the answer in its Discovery 58

• Toby Hodges
• November 10, 2015

The Discovery 58 has everything a short-handed crew might need for bluewater cruising supplied as standard. Does it fit the bill? asks Toby Hodges

Lying in the lower berth of the Pullman cabin as we beat to windward across the Channel during a cold spring night, I could appreciate the creature comforts offered by a luxury ocean cruiser such as the Discovery 58. I was snugly contained against the leecloth, with the heating pumping out.

I could feel the raked stem softly parting the head seas, the lack of pitching gained from having centralised tanks. But the most comforting thought as we traversed the shipping lanes, alive with passing container ships, was the thought of her structure.

The 10 tonnes of lead below the 58, the equivalent of having a 45ft Beneteau moulded into the keel, is joined to the hull by 17 keel bolts. There is a Kevlar wrap around the hull waterline for impact resistance, and there are four water-tight bulkheads bonded to both hull and deck.

Safe to say that during my two-hour off-watch, I slept rather soundly. And this benefit of feeling rested during a passage is a significant one for bluewater cruisers.

Heading out through the Needles – a self-tacking blade jib is ideal for short-tacking through chop. Twin headsails include a large genoa

If you were to go long-distance cruising, what would be the primary features you would look for in a yacht? I would wager that both looks and reward on the helm might play second fiddle to more practical concerns such as comfort throughout and the ability to access and service systems.

Discovery knows this. It has employed a tried and tested formula, putting practicality before fashion, since the launch of its first yacht designed for short-handed cruising in the late 1990s. So while its cruising yachts may seem a little dated, they have a popular niche following, particularly from couples going bluewater sailing.

We wanted to find out why this recipe works so well, so we sailed this first new Discovery 58 from the Solent to Jersey in late April to explore in detail the features that go into making the ideal short-handed cruising yacht.

Other than looks, the main differences are the versatile options the Discovery provides. Owners can now choose between either single or twin wheels – the only centre cockpit yacht I believe that has this option – and a fourth cabin instead of a technical room.

Two need space

The appeal of a Discovery yacht lies with its exhaustive specification, luxury build quality and design specifically tailored to suit a cruising couple. John and Caroline Charnley founded the company after unsuccessfully searching for a 50ft yacht to suit their long-term cruising goals. When they realised how much gear they wanted to ship aboard and the space needed to stow it properly, they settled on a 55ft design. Nearly 50 of the Discovery 55s have since been launched, plus a 67, 58 and a 50ft cat.

As the Charnleys discovered, the provision of enough stowage and tank space is a key factor for bluewater sailors. So the Discovery 58 can carry 1,300lt of fuel and 1,000lt of water for long-term cruising. Cold storage is generous, with a 300lt fridge and 170lt freezer as standard. I was also impressed with the bottle stowage below the galley sole, plus the tall, deep wardrobes in the cabins.

A deep self-draining anchor locker houses 100m of 12mm chain. Note the reel on the left for the hosepipe of the saltwater anchor wash

A sail locker is a prized cruising asset. On the Discovery 58 this is vast, yet practical – it lights up when the hatch opens and there are sensibly placed cleats for hanging up spare sheets and halyards. A gas locker and bosun’s locker are recessed below the side decks amidships. To give an idea of depth, the gas locker can house two 6kg propane bottles. Consider that there are deep quarter lockers too and you realise stowage space on deck will never be an issue.

Keep rested for best performance

The layout of the Discovery 58 is designed to promote rest and prevent exhaustion. There are just three shallow steps from saloon to cockpit, for example. And the company is aware that the constant sound of mechanical noise can be draining, so the engine room is so well insulated it can be difficult to tell when the engine or genset is running.

The Discovery is rigged to be as easy to sail from the cockpit as possible. The twin furling headsails and an in-mast furling mainsail are standard. Unusually, the owner of the test boat had opted for a slab-reefed main – which is “against the Discovery ethos of easy cruising,” says Charnley.

The choice of two different-sized headsails is arguably the most practical solution for long-distance cruising, and one offered by many yards producing this size of yacht today. The ability to swap sails, or tuck in a couple of reefs without leaving the cockpit is ideal for short-handed sailing.

What the Discovery 58 lacks in helming pleasure she makes up for in comfort. She provides a lovely soft motion, whether punching through sharp chop or parting swells. You really notice and appreciate this below decks. Above all, she makes you feel safe, the most important aspect for a couple, especially if caught out in bad weather.

During a typically cold UK spring night, where the wind cut straight through regardless of the number of layers we wore, the deep cockpit came into its own.

We spent most watches hand-steering, but the more realistic mode is a snug one: engage autopilot, sit by the companionway with sheet controls on electric remote switches, and you have good views both forward and to the plotter at the chart table below. Or there is the option to keep even warmer on watch at the raised navstation.

Details that impress

The layout below is a tried and tested one for a centre-cockpit design, with a passageway galley, owner’s stateroom aft and a walk-in engine room. The raised saloon may provide the wow factor, but I found the galley a highlight, a real pleasure to work in. It is light, spacious, yet narrow enough to brace yourself at heel. Those things you need to get at regularly are positioned at the forward end, close to the companionway, including a drinks fridge and a sweep-top bin recessed into the worksurface.

Liveaboards need to prepare three meals a day in the galley, so practical working and stowage space is essential. The Discovery 58 excels here. She has front-opening fridge-freezers that extend out to the hulls and use keel-cooled compressors. There is capacious worksurface with deep fiddles and I liked the generous sinks.

The cabins are as comfortable as her premium price would suggest, including the standard luxury mattresses, but it’s the small extra touches that impress. There are numerous plug sockets, the windows all have dual blinds (insect and blackout) and there is plenty of ventilation.

The heads include details such as heated towel rails, soap dishes, shaver sockets – there is even dedicated toilet brush stowage. These may sound like inconsequential aspects to some, but in my experience they are anything but. Having wet towels or toilet paper, or nowhere to store essentials quickly becomes frustrating, and can be a considerable annoyance when living aboard for long periods.

Behind the scenes

It is the behind-the-scenes details that Discovery incorporates, however, that that really impress. Lengths are taken to ensure longevity of the fittings. The seacocks, for example, are made from a type of Nylon that guards against corrosion. Likewise, tanks are polyethylene and marine-grade tinned cabling is used for all circuitry.

One benefit of a centre cockpit is a walk-in engine room. Machinery is rubber-mounted and insulation so good you can barely hear the engine running

Changing the working tanks over can be a fiddle on many yachts. The 58 has a locker beside the steps to the forward cabins that contains a very neat manifold switchover. It is easy to access and, along with breakers, battery switches and aircon pumps, is clearly labelled.

Other details I appreciated are the saltwater anchor wash hose, automatic bilge pumps in the sail locker and the rubber-mounted floorboards for sound insulation.

Most yards offer the bare minimum of equipment to keep the base price low. But the danger with buying a boat with scant specs is that she may never be fitted out properly. It could become a job that’s put off until that elusive day.

But Discovery takes the opposite approach. The 58 comes with everything you could possibly need and all to a premium standard.

Another benefit of this thorough approach is that each item has been properly thought through from the design stage, avoiding the headache of where to try to fit optional extras. The walk-in engine room has a 5kW Northern Lights generator neatly installed. And the path for each duct leading from the standard Eberspacher heater is as carefully considered as the rest of the plumbing runs.

Discovery yachts come ready to sail, so the full specification includes navigation instruments (both chartplotter and radar), electric winches and traveller. But there is little point in having such comprehensive kit and stowage space if it is impossible to access it for servicing.

John Charnley explained that he had instigated a 15:10 rule at Discovery Yachts. This means that, according to his requirements, it should take only 15 seconds to access every major piece of equipment and ten minutes to remove it (engine excluded).

Two people sailing bluewater

The Discovery is an exceedingly well-finished and comfortable yacht. And as the founder John Charnley says: “Everything aboard is designed to support two people sailing bluewater.” And this model benefits from the feedback of over 50 owners out there doing just that.

Stowage is bountiful throughout and the quality of the joiner work exemplary. The yard offers a flexible, semi-custom build – the owner of the test boat wanted to visit the yard every month and specified a year-long handover.

The concept may look and feel a little dated now – the big heavy cruiser that needs a Force 4 to get her moving – but the security the Discovery 58 provides from her build and level of standard fit out, help you sleep well at night. Whether this level of comfort is enough to make up for the lack of reward on the helm is arguable.

But if a yacht can be rated on how well rested it delivers its crew, the Discovery is hard to beat.

Sailing performance

During our photoshoot in the western Solent, we sailed upwind under self-tacking jib and offwind with full genoa, both accompanied by a reefed main. Despite the ideal conditions – a sunny, Force 5 south-westerly – it was not overly enjoyable on the helm, as there is little feedback from the lengthy geared steering linkage.

It was difficult to get the yacht into a groove and too easy to wander off course if you didn’t have an eye on the wind gauge, compass or, later, a star.

I sailed the twin wheel set-up on the original 57, and initially thought I would prefer to have that royal box-style set-up in the wings, rather than helm from down in the centre circle.

You certainly get a better view forward with twin wheels, but on passage, it felt secure to be more central when helming.

Discovery 55, MERLYN III

Discovery Yachts Ltd., Discovery 55 Built 2012 / £590,000, VAT paid

Broker’s Comments

The Discovery 55 was designed by Ron Holland and built in the UK by Discovery Yachts. These yachts have gained a strong reputation for being able to do extensive bluewater cruising with family and friends and can be sailed with just a crew of two – while comfortably accommodating a crew of seven. Quality is present in every inch of a Discovery with the inherent strength of the keel structure hand laminated directly to the hull and the high specification of the materials used, each one is built with no expensive spared and this is confirmed as soon as you step on-board.

Discovery 55, MERLYN III – launched in 2012 and from build carefully specified to make ocean passage making a breeze. On deck, she offers the well-known ‘Discovery’ Solent rig with self-tacking jib, forward genoa and electric in mast furling with all sails can be easily handled from the cockpit with no need for crew to go on deck. Down below, you have the customary detailed woodwork throughout with the raised saloon with seating for seven, large uncompromised aft cabin, two further cabins forward giving comfortable berths for seven guests. Her linear galley has been cleverly designed to allow easy access and the raised chart table gives excellent visibility while at sea.

From her launch in Southampton, UK the owner has done extensive sailing. Discovery 55, MERLYN III is looking for new owners to take her forward to the next adventure.

Owner’s Comments

I purchased the MERLYN III as a new build and took delivery in July 2012. She is very fully specified.

• In 2012, our maiden voyage was to the Western Isles of Scotland, including a trip to St. Kilda.
• In 2013, we sailed to the Canary Isles and spent time exploring most of the islands. In December, we sailed in the ARC to St. Lucia.
• In 2014 and the first part of 2015, we cruised extensively in the Caribbean.
• The 2014, hurricane season was spent in Antigua.
• In 2015, we sailed to Curacao and then Columbia and Panama including, the San Blas Islands.
• In 2016, we sailed to Providencia, the Honduran Islands, Belize, Mexico and the East coast of the United States leaving the boat in Stonington, Connecticut over the winter.
• In 2017, we sailed via Boston to Nova Scotia and Maine. In the summer, we sailed to the Azores.
• The following year we cruised the Azores and brought her back to Portland, where she has been based ever since.
• 2019 saw us do a circumnavigation of Ireland.
• 2020 and 2021 was spent in Scotland including the Shetland Isles and the Western Isles.
• 2022 saw us in Galicia.

The distance from Portland to Coruna is around 540 miles and both the voyage there and the return were completed under sail in less than three days (100% on the return and over 80% outbound).

The most important quality of a sailing vessel is seaworthiness. We had very difficult conditions on our voyage from Maine to the Azores, but I can vouch for the reassuring way in which MERLYN III coped with the sea-state; she is very well found. She is also a very comfortable boat for sociable cruising (the BBQ is very popular). Her storage capacity is impressive. We spent a month in the San Blas islands with virtually no access to provisions; such was the capacity of the storage (including a huge fridge and freezer).

The sailing rig is very flexible and can be managed effectively for all likely conditions. She would be ideally suited to a lengthy voyage.
