The latest big boat from this volume German boat builder sets new standards in many respects. The company had identified \u201crelaxing as absolutely the number one priority,\u201d so there are four sun bathing locations and the biggest hinge-down bathing platform\/terrace of any boat in its class. There are easy steps up from this to deck level \u2013 guests are not expected to clamber up and down ladders on this yacht \u2013 and there\u2019s a wet bar combined with outdoor galley at the aft end of the cockpit.<\/p>\n
On deck the new design has clearly defined and separate working, sunbathing and social areas. The design brief was to optimise performance in lighter airs, as are often found in the Mediterranean. To aid performance the boat is built of vacuum infusion, which creates a lighter and stiffer structure than more conventional fibreglass layup. In addition, the keel was optimised to minimise wetted surface area. The shoal draught keel has no bulb and provides a ballast ratio of only 31 per cent, although the hull shape offers significant form stability, and the deep keel option has a weighty bulb.<\/p>\n
The interior has a fresh new style that will progressively be introduced to the entire Bavaria range as new models are rolled out. The aim was to produce what would only a few years ago have been seen as a superyacht style and volume. The saloon has 270-degree windows, plus generous overhead hatches and a pair of hull windows each side.<\/p>\n
Interior finishes include a dark walnut, mahogany or light oak. Solid wood cappings in high wear areas will help to withstand knocks and bumps and allow for easy repairs if the worst should happen. The furniture is not structural, so there\u2019s plenty of scope for layout changes to suit owners\u2019 demands. In addition, this approach allows for a modular approach in building, with the interior built in sections outside the hull to reduce build time and manufacturing costs.<\/p>\n
The soundproofed owners cabin is forward and is well appointed with a small dresser, plus separate head and shower. In charter versions two smaller double cabins can be provided in this area. All heads have 70 litre holding tanks and optional grey water tanks can be installed below the saloon floor.<\/p>\n
