What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for families This 2018 Bavaria Cruiser 46 suits groups or families wanting comfortable coastal cruising with plenty of space, four cabins sleep nine, so you've got flexibility without feeling cramped. The teak cockpit and sprayhood make relaxed sailing practical, even in less-than-perfect weather.
Smart practical touches Solar panels, bow thruster, and autopilot signal a yacht that's been fitted out for genuine cruising comfort rather than bare essentials. The Wi-Fi and internet access is a bonus if anyone needs to stay loosely connected, and the dinghy with outboard means easy exploration of anchorages.
Solid value proposition At this size and age with four cabins, you're getting decent space-per-euro, especially if you're splitting costs across a larger group. The €1600 deposit is reasonable, and Orvas Yachting's perfect 5-star rating (albeit from only two reviews) suggests reliable operators.
One practical note We don't have the charter base location listed here, you'll want to confirm where JOSIP is moored and factor in your international arrival logistics (nearest airport, transfer time, whether Orvas handles connections smoothly). That detail matters when you're flying long-haul to reach her.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
Kornati National Park is empty coves, no shore power, true wilderness sailing. The route most people quietly call their best charter ever.
