Broker Comments
If you are looking for a seaworthy cruiser with good space and is easy to handle then the Bavaria 37 Cruiser is definitely worth considering. Although this model had a limited production run over a couple of years, there were a decent number of hulls produced. Considered an agile and solid yacht, it offers good cruising speed for size and sail plan. The interior feels spacious through the saloon, forward and aft cabin with a large heads and well proportioned galley. Overall this is a great example of a yacht that cruises comfortably whilst offering plenty of space for four.
