Construction

Construction GRP
Underwater profile Fin
Finish Gelcoat finish

Total LOA, for moorage slip purposes, is 39' 6".

This sturdy vessel was built in Europe, as a bluewater-capable offshore cruiser. She was not outfitted with a holding tank from the factory because she was designed to be sailed at sea. New owner would be advised to install a holding tank if they plan to cruise the waters of the Salish Sea.

Sturdy construction, by design, combined with offshore rigging and equipment make her an excellent bluewater cruising candidate.

Broker's Comments

This vessel is unique -- a custom-rigged Bavaria 39, built originally for the European market, and, as a European model, is the only hull available in the Americas. She was sailed from Europe to North Carolina after sailing Scandinavia, Spain, the Canaries and the Caribbean. The sellers (only her second owners) bought her and trucked the vessel to Seattle, Washington, where they cruised the Pacific Northwest and Canadian waters. The vessel appears ready to continue cruising the Northwest, from Olympia to Alaska, and offshore destinations too!

This Bavaria 39 has been personally photographed and viewed by Tom Youngs of Boatshed Seattle. Click here for contact details.
