AI (Bavaria C42 (3 cab.))

Perfect for groups The Bavaria C42 is ideal if you're traveling with family or friends, three cabins sleep up to eight, making per-person costs very attractive for larger crews. At 12.4 metres, she's manageable for mixed-ability sailors without feeling cramped, and the bow thruster makes harbour manoeuvres genuinely relaxed.

Standout practical kit You get the essentials that make life afloat genuinely pleasant: autopilot, sprayhood, bimini, and a dinghy are all included as standard. The chart plotter and bow thruster mean less stress navigating unfamiliar waters, and cockpit speakers add a nice social touch for anchorages.

Excellent value proposition At €4,135 per week with zero deposit required, this represents genuinely competitive pricing for a modern three-cabin cruiser from a reputable builder. If you can assemble a full crew, the per-berth cost drops to roughly €500/week, hard to beat.

One honest note We don't have charter base details listed here, so check the location carefully before booking, if it's a long transfer from your nearest international airport, that will add travel time and cost to your overall trip. The 2026 build date also means confirm she's actually in the water and available; brand-new charter stock sometimes has teething issues, though Bavaria builds solid boats.
