45 Years of Crafting Joy on the Water
Founded in 1978 in Giebelstadt, Germany, Bavaria Yachts has established itself as a global leader in series-produced sailing yachts and motorboats, combining Teutonic engineering with accessible pricing. Over 42,000 vessels have been built across its 200,000 mΒ² facility, where 700 skilled workers blend craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology.
Core Strengths
- Engineering Excellence:
Bavariaβs yachts utilize sandwich construction with foam cores and isophthalic acid resins to prevent osmosis, ensuring durability in hulls and decks. Aluminum reinforcements at stress points enhance structural integrity, while CAD/CAM software and custom CNC systems achieve millimeter precision in fittings and hatches. - Diverse Portfolio:
- Sailing Yachts: The C-LINE (cruising) and CRUISER LINE (performance) series offer customizable layouts, teak/mahogany interiors, and advanced rigging.
- Motorboats: Ranges like R-LINE (12.65β17.95m) and S-LINE (8.76β13.83m) feature Volvo Penta IPS drives, reducing fuel consumption by 30% and emissions by 30% while boosting speed and range.
Sustainability & Innovation
- Eco-Friendly Propulsion: Partnerships with Volvo Penta and MerCruiser integrate hybrid-ready systems, including IPS pod drives with joystick docking for simplified operation.
- Material Efficiency: Vacuum-infused laminates and recyclable composites minimize waste during production.
Global Reach
With 600+ vessels produced annually, Bavaria serves enthusiasts worldwide through a network of dealers offering tailored configurations, maintenance, and training. Flagship models like the Bavaria C42 exemplify the brandβs balance of affordability (starting at β¬250,000) and premium features such as ergonomic cockpits and solar-ready electrical systems.
