What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
19 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Perfect for relaxed families The Bavaria 37 is a forgiving, well-equipped cruiser that suits groups of 4, 7 wanting comfortable sailing without high-performance demands. At 11.2 metres with three cabins, there's genuine sleeping space, no cramped bunks, which makes this a proper family boat rather than a budget squeeze.
Smart practical features The bow thruster is a genuine asset for tighter anchorages and marina entries, especially useful if your crew includes less experienced sailors. Autopilot, dinghy, and a bimini canopy round out a sensible specification for Mediterranean cruising where shade and easy tender access matter.
Solid value proposition At €1,650 per week with only a €1,500 deposit, this represents fair mid-market pricing for a 3-cabin boat in that size bracket. You're getting a 2007 model (not brand new, but proven), which usually means the quirks are sorted and the boat earns its keep.
Watch the age factor Being 17 years old, maintenance and systems reliability deserve a pre-charter survey if you're unfamiliar with the boat. Request recent service records and confirm the engine and rigging have had proper attention, especially important if you're flying long-haul to reach the base and can't easily return for problems.
