Northberry Blu (Bavaria Cruiser 46)

Perfect for families The Bavaria Cruiser 46 is an excellent choice for groups of 4-8 wanting comfortable, modern sailing without fussing over older boat systems. Four cabins with eight berths give everyone decent private space, and the 2023 build year means everything feels fresh and reliable.

Standout practical touches Solar panels and an inverter are genuinely useful for extended cruising, while the bow thruster makes tight anchorages far less stressful, especially handy if your crew includes less experienced sailors. The sprayhood and bimini keep you shaded and dry, which matters more than you'd think on a week-long charter.

Solid value proposition At this size and specification, you're getting a well-equipped, low-stress cruiser that handles day sails and island-hopping equally well. The €2800 deposit is reasonable, though we'd want to see the weekly rate before calling it a bargain.

One honest caveat TYC Yachting shows only two reviews on our system, a great rating, but a small sample size. Before booking, ask about their handover process, support during your charter, and whether they offer airport transfers or guidance for international arrivals, since you'll likely be flying in from abroad.
