Bavaria Bavaria 40 used

Spacious and reliable, this 2001 Bavaria 40 represents a solid opportunity for those seeking a proven cruiser. Measuring 11.99 meters in length, the design balances performance with internal volume, offering a practical 3-cabin and 2-bathroom layout that comfortably accommodates up to 10 people. This specific Bavaria 40 has seen significant recent maintenance, ensuring the vessel remains efficient at sea. Notable updates include a full replacement of the standing rigging and a new set of sails in 2018. The navigation suite has been overhauled with a completely new autopilot system, including a new hydraulic cylinder, computer, and console, alongside a replaced anemometer and display screen. Comfort on deck is enhanced by very recent sprayhood and bimini tops, providing necessary protection during long coastal passages. Mechanical reliability is supported by a sail-drive seal replaced in 2018. This used boat is currently located in France, with VAT paid status, and offers a straightforward configuration for owners who prioritize seaworthiness and maintenance history.
