Manufacturer Provided Description

The compact 32-foot model, the Bavaria 32, offers the same high level of quality and sailing pleasure as her larger sisters. Providing some clever solutions, the interior of this refreshing yacht is surprisingly spacious for her size. Two generous double cabins in the front and in the back provide comfortable room for two persons each. If required, the two settees at the saloon can be turned into two additional single beds. The remarkable functionality of Bavaria’s construction concepts also becomes clearly noticeable on deck of the Bavaria 32: as instruments and winches are judiciously positioned, the helmsman can easily handle the yacht on its own. A clever boat for boundless sailing pleasure!
