Bavaria 40 Ocean Centre Cockpit – 2001 | Privately Owned • Never Chartered • VAT Paid • Mediterranean Based A well-maintained and extensively equipped Bavaria 40 Ocean Centre Cockpit, one of the most respected cruising yachts in her class. Built by Bavaria Yachtbau in 2001 and configured in the highly desirable owner’s version layout, she combines comfortable liveaboard accommodation with proven offshore capability, making her ideal for Mediterranean cruising, extended voyages and long-term life afloat. Privately owned throughout her life and never chartered, she has benefited from continuous maintenance and thoughtful upgrades. Offered VAT paid and currently located in the Mediterranean, she represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a genuine cruising yacht ready for immediate use. The Bavaria 40 Ocean is renowned for its secure centre cockpit design, spacious interior and practical sailing characteristics. Below deck, the owner’s layout provides exceptional comfort, featuring a forward double guest cabin and a large aft owner’s stateroom with a queen-sized berth. The bright saloon, upgraded with suede upholstery in 2016, offers a welcoming living space, complemented by a well-equipped galley, dedicated navigation station and a heads compartment with separate shower. Under sail, she is easy to manage and well suited to short-handed cruising. Her fractional sloop rig incorporates in-mast furling, while standing rigging and the Furlex furling system were renewed in 2015. The genoa was replaced in 2016 and the mainsail in 2017, both remaining in very good condition. Quality Harken self-tailing winches complete an efficient and dependable sail-handling package. Power is provided by a Volvo Penta MD22L 50hp diesel engine with approximately 3,332 hours. The engine underwent a comprehensive overhaul in 2017, including new injectors and cambelt, while the saildrive seal was renewed in 2012. The yacht is particularly well equipped for independent cruising. A modern electrical system renewed in 2021 includes Victron AGM batteries, Victron monitoring and inverter systems, Alpha Pro charging regulation and upgraded wiring. Two 150W solar panels with MPPT controller provide excellent energy generation, allowing the vessel to operate with minimal reliance on shore power.

A real delight to take dad Adrian and son James for a taster sail today. Adrian sailed on Lift Off (the blue Squib) with John Cranwell Ward and Eric Andrew and James sailed on Satyr (the red Squib) with Tony Garrick and Dave Grundy. Speaking to both soon after returning to the pontoon, they had big smiles and said they had really enjoyed their Taster Day with RCSSC. Adrian was a natural and sailed Satyr for most of the time we were out. He had a natural feel for the breeze and changes in wind direction. We sailed out from Rutland Sailing Club and soon tacked to head passed the gap between Hambleton Peninsula / Normanton Church into the open waters before the dam head. There were plenty of fishermen out and with Adrian on the helm we gave them space to fish and got plenty of friendly waves as we sailed by them. We covered the length of the Dam and getting great view of 'Rutland by the Sea' then across towards Whitwell Creek with sight of the slides, canoes and of course The Rutland Belle. Seeing Lift Off with Dad Adrian on board, near the peninsula and head up the North leg of Rutland Water. All too soon we had to turn for home and followed Lift Off, sailing in good company, heading by for the pontoon at Rutland Sailing Club on the South Shore, near Edith Weston. Whilst Lift Off headed in we decided to sail on for a few minutes and sailed half way along the South leg, and enjoying a strengthening breeze. By now Tony and myself were pretty confident in Jame's helming so when we saw a fleet of lasers sailing in a group towards with us, and us on a starboard tack (right of way) we decided to 'hold our course' and with a few marginal tweaks to make things easier for other sailors, James 'sailed through with aplomb. Nice one James. By now we could see the others were on the pontoon and it was time to join them. Adrian relinquished the helm to Dave and took control of the jib sail with Tony. The wind was a northerly blowing straight onto the pontoon soon so with bow and side fenders on, we sailed to the pontoon, turned into wind and came along side.
