Rea (Refit 2022) (Bavaria Cruiser 46)

Perfect for groups This Bavaria 46 is an excellent choice for families or small groups wanting comfortable cruising without breaking the bank. The four-cabin layout sleeps up to nine, giving you real flexibility whether you're travelling with friends or multi-generational family.

Smart cruising kit The 2022 refit means you're getting a well-maintained boat with genuinely useful features like a bow thruster (makes tight anchorages far less stressful), solar panels for keeping batteries topped up, and both a sprayhood and bimini for protection from the elements. The dual chart plotters suggest the owner takes navigation seriously, which matters when you're unfamiliar with the cruising ground.

Honest value play At €3,330 per week with a 5-star operator rating across eight reviews, this feels like solid value for a 46-footer that can accommodate nine people. The modest €2,500 deposit is refreshing. You're paying for sensible, reliable cruising rather than luxury, which is exactly what most international clients want.

One practical note The charter base location isn't listed here, so before booking, confirm the airport transfer time from your arrival point, a long transfer can eat into valuable first-day sailing time, especially if you've flown long-haul.
