About Bareboat Sailing Yacht Bavaria 40 Cruiser
This Bavaria 40 Cruiser offers an elegant, self-guided sailing experience in Croatia. Built in 2008, she combines modern comfort with straightforward handling, making her ideal for experienced sailors seeking independence. The generous beam and well-proportioned cockpit create a hospitable platform for up to 10 guests, with three cabins providing proper accommodation below decks.
All sail controls lead to the cockpit for efficient single-handed operation when needed, whilst the large cockpit table serves as the social hub for dining and navigation planning. An electric anchor windlass, bow thruster, and roll systems for both mainsail and genoa mean you spend more time enjoying the Adriatic and less time wrestling hardware. The Webasto heating system ensures comfort during shoulder seasons.
Highlights
- •Three cabins with comfortable berths and proper headroom below decks
- •Electric anchor windlass, bow thruster, and roll-driven mainsail and genoa for reduced crew effort
- •Full navigation suite including GPS plotter, autopilot, radar reflector, and comprehensive paper charts
- •Comprehensive safety inventory with fire extinguishers, flares, first aid kit, and lifebuoy with light
The Charter Experience
Charter this bareboat from Biograd or Sibenik and explore the islands and anchorages of the Croatian coast at your own pace. Whether you're an experienced skipper planning a week-long island-hopping adventure or a capable crew wanting to refine your sailing skills, the Bavaria 40 responds predictably in variable conditions. Morning coffee in the cockpit, afternoons under sail, and evening anchorages in sheltered bays define the rhythm of bareboat cruising here.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week might depart Biograd, sail south to the Kornati Islands for protected anchorages and dramatic limestone landscapes, then continue to Sibenik and the Krka River estuary. Morning passages favour the prevailing northwesterly winds, leaving afternoons for exploring smaller islands and swimming in crystalline bays before selecting your evening anchorage.
