2003 Bavaria 36

Marketing Description The Bavaria 36 is a standout 36-foot cruiser that perfectly blends performance, comfort, and value. Built by the respected German yard Bavaria Yachtbau and designed by J&J Design, it offers a proven, sea-kindly hull that’s responsive, easy to handle, and lively under sail, especially in light to moderate conditions. With its generous beam and smart layout, the boat delivers exceptional interior space for its size, featuring a warm mahogany finish, excellent headroom, and two-cabin configuration ideal for both private and charter use . On deck, it’s designed for simplicity and control—often described as having “finger-tip” handling—making it equally suited to experienced sailors or those stepping up into serious cruising. We are delighted to present "Billows" to the market, well set up for long range cruising and featuring an extensive inventory.
