BAVARIA 35 CRUISER – Tandem keel version – 2009
Bavaria 35 Cruiser
The Bavaria 35 Cruiser is a cruising sailboat recognized for its excellent balance between comfort, safety, and ease of navigation. Designed by J&J Design and built by Bavaria Yacht, this tandem keel version model stands out for its versatility and accessibility, particularly for coastal and shallow water programs thanks to its shallow draft of 1.45 m.
Its monohull polyester hull measures 10.76 m and offers good stability and smooth circulation onboard. The tandem keel version provides excellent anchoring capabilities and facilitates access to shallow anchorages, while maintaining a reassuring and balanced sailing behavior.
Inside, the layout is particularly appreciated for cruising with 3 double cabins and 6 to 8 bunks. The bright saloon, generous storage, and warm woodwork create a convivial and comfortable atmosphere for family or friends cruising. The interior and exterior upholstery is reported to be in good condition.
Regarding the engine, the boat is equipped with a Volvo D1-30 engine of 28 HP with sail-drive transmission, with approximately 700 hours of operation. Maintenance of the sail-drive seal should be planned considering its age.
The electronic equipment is appropriate for a cruising program:
• Raymarine EV200 autopilot (2023)
• Log, depth sounder, and wind instrument Raymarine ST60
• Lorenz GPS/chartplotter
• Icom IC-M330 VHF
The deck is well equipped with:
• Pivoting aft platform,
• Swim ladder,
• Electric anchor windlass,
• Bimini,
• Roof hatch,
• Teak cockpit,
• Lazy-bag and lazy-jacks.
The boat also includes a 4-person dinghy with a Honda 2.5 HP engine.
Regarding the sail inventory, the boat is sold without a mainsail or genoa, which should be considered in future equipment budgeting (estimates provided: approximately €5000 for the mainsail and for the roller furling genoa). However, an asymmetrical spinnaker and a gennaker are included, offering great sailing potential downwind.
The Bavaria 35 Cruiser tandem keel represents a great opportunity for comfortable and secure coastal cruising, with a rare and sought-after configuration for tidal areas and accessible anchorages. Its interior volume, ease of handling, and onboard comfort make it a particularly attractive sailboat in this category.
