Opinions on Bavaria Yachts
the Bavaria saga. I am one of those Bavaria owners, bought new in 2001 and agree with just about everything that John (swagman) wrote. One thing to look at are the changes in the Bavarias over the years. Most feel that BAV quality over the years is on the decline as prices dictate ever more what rolls out the front door.
The most boat for your money? Bavaria C38 yacht test
Bavaria Yachts, the company, gained new owners in 2018, and they've been quick to make a fresh start, starting with a plan to update the entire range. Having moved from design house J&J to Cossutti Design, the C38 is the latest, smallest boat in the new lineup. The strongly chined hull shape makes a bold statement about that new direction.
What is your opinion of Bavaria's?
Caymanpete. 3 posts · Joined 2011. #2 · Mar 20, 2012. I can speak of their build quality and their sea keeping. Firstly, if you make a comparison based on the known build quality of motor vehicles, the Bavaria comes out as the VW of the boating world. That is by no means a criticism, since VW are renown for their economical design and ...
Tested: Bavaria Vision 42

Bavaria Vision 46 review: from the archive
The Bavaria Vision 46 is a highly innovative design, with a strict attention to detail, a premium regard for comfort and impressive build quality and styling throughout.
Bavaria 32 Cruiser: A boat built for family fun afloat
The Bavaria 32 Cruiser straddles both worlds with ease, says Rachael Sprot. When you think of the naval architect, Bruce Farr, many good things spring to mind: America's Cup challengers, Whitbread winners and high-profile superyachts. Family cruiser isn't at the top of the list - yet the Bavaria 32 Cruiser is just that.
Bavaria C42 review: The Ford Model T of 40ft yachts
Bavaria seems to have combined the best of both ideas, so you really do keep asking yourself if this boat is really only 40ft. The darker walnut veneer of the test boat. Photo: Rick Tomlinson ...
Bavaria 38 Cruiser: Sailing Performance and German Engineering
Boats of various lengths could be built at the same time on the same line, translating to greater consistency, better quality, and reduced manufacturing costs. For the boater, better performance and more bang for the buck was the result of German engineering spreading from automotive to boating—and the 38 Cruiser shows we're better off for it.
Bavaria SR33 Review (2023 Edition)
Completing the current three-boat line-up in the Bavaria SR range, the entry-level SR33 is hoping to build on the successes of its award-winning siblings, the SR36 and SR41. Featuring many of the clever ideas that brought the larger boats in the range such critical acclaim, the 33 brings its own personality with Marco Casali of Too Design penning her sleek and smart exterior.The highlight ...

Bavaria 30 boat review
Bavaria 30. Price as reviewed: £25,000.00. Introducing the brand at the Southampton Show in 1987, this Axel design was a staid-looking, mid-range cruiser. The build quality and finish of the mahogany joinery were impressive. The accommodation layout was conventional with a comfortable and spacious saloon, a large heads and generous aftercabin.
The shipyard
Over 600 sailing yachts and motorboats are manufactured on the shipyard of BAVARIA YACHTS in Giebelstadt, near Würzburg. Four production lines, each 125 meters long, a carpenter's workshop where the entirety of the yacht is constructed, two halls to manufacture hulls and decks, are accommodated on a large surface measuring 200,000 square meters.
Sailing Yachts
The pure joy of sailing. A BAVARIA yacht is the perfect interaction of many elements. Everything is built around the extensive expertise of German engineering. It is an art that looks back on a long and successful tradition in boat building. Today it is possible to implement all this knowledge with a high degree of precision and quality.
Bavaria Yachts: charting their fall and rise
By 2016, Bavaria Yachts was claiming to build around 1,000 boats per year. CEO Lutz Henkel explained to me at the time that the yachts had become bigger and more complex, so capacity was lower than at the high-water mark in 2007. But industry sources say that the real figure was closer to 600 yachts per year.

Beneteau Vs Bavaria: Which is Better?
Beneteau's boat-building quality has been and is a role model for other boatyards. Resin is a constant in the materials used for every Bavaria hull, but then balsa core is used for its strength, thickness, and relatively lightweight. Their center of gravity invalidates the use of lead for the keels. All the trimming and hole cuts on decks and ...
Bavaria Ocean 40 boat review
Price as reviewed: £85,000.00. This was regarded as a competent, conservative and well-engineered yacht at her launch in 2001, although the finish and interior build quality was fairly basic. But at under £100,000 she was astonishingly good value. The Ocean model had a centre-cockpit, but a conventional aft-cockpit was also offered and sold ...
Jeanneau or Bavaria
The Bavaria normally has a 210L tank, and that's a big difference. The build quality is very similar, but the interior of the DS looks better. On the outside both boats are good looking boats, it is just a question of taste. There are however a detail that piss me on the Jeanneau.
Boat building on the assembly line
Since 2000, BAVARIA YACHTS has been manufacturing on four production lines. The boats come out of the lamination as more or less empty hulls, Danker explains. In the case of the sailing yachts, the engines and, above all, the „backbone", a large, stable floor assembly that stiffens the boat and is the basis for further construction, which ...
