Description
This Bavaria 40 offers a versatile and spacious accommodation layout with three double cabins and two heads / shower compartments. Well equipped and regularly updated she`s ready to go for Med livaboard use. She benefits from many upgrades in recent years including seacocks, batteries, sails, main hatches and not least her Flexiteak decks. Both sails are furling for easy shorthanded sailing with lines led aft to the security of the cockpit. This Bavaria 40 is very attractively priced and she offers a great opportunity for a new owner to purchase a practical, ready to go cruiser.£55,000 (Vat paid)
