About Bareboat Sailing Yacht Bavaria Cruiser 51.5
The Bavaria 51 Cruiser delivers the rare combination of genuine sailing performance and genuine comfort. Built in 2015, this five-cabin yacht features a well-balanced sail plan and efficient underbody that rewards those who want to sail properly, not merely motor. All control lines lead aft to the cockpit, keeping the working deck uncluttered and giving you full command of the boat from a single vantage point.
Five cabins, three showers, and two heads make this yacht genuinely liveable for extended cruises with family and friends. She has earned her reputation as one of the world's most popular charter yachts not through marketing claims but through the straightforward logic of good design. When a yacht is this widely owned and chartered, it reflects genuine satisfaction from people who know how to sail.

The Charter Experience
The French Riviera from the helm of a properly sorted sailing yacht is something altogether different from the superyacht circuit. You'll find yourself in the company of serious sailors exploring the Esterel Massif, anchoring off the Îles d'Hyères, and discovering the quieter coves that require actual seamanship to reach. This is bareboat sailing for those who value autonomy, skill, and the particular satisfaction of making passages under canvas rather than fuel.
Suggested Itinerary
A week-long bareboat charter might take you from Port Pin Rolland south through the Esterel Massif, then across to the Îles d'Hyères for anchorages at Porquerolles or Port-Cros. Depending on conditions and your crew's appetite, you could push east toward Saint-Tropez or head west toward Cassis and the Calanques. The Bavaria 51 is equally at home in a proper blow or threading through the islands at a gentle pace.
