Oreo (Bavaria Cruiser 51 (5 cab.))

Perfect for groups The Bavaria Cruiser 51 is ideal if you're chartering with friends or family, ten berths across five cabins means everyone gets reasonable privacy without breaking the bank per person. At roughly €530 per berth weekly, it's genuinely competitive for a 15-metre cruising yacht of this vintage.

Well-equipped cruiser You're getting the essentials and then some: autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, solar panels help with power autonomy, and thoughtful touches like the sprayhood and bimini keep crew comfortable in variable weather. The chart plotter in the cockpit is a real convenience for navigation without ducking below.

Solid value proposition A zero deposit is refreshing and removes friction. At €5,300 weekly, this 2015 Bavaria delivers honest cruising capability, not flashy, but reliable and proven in thousands of charters. You're paying for function, not luxury, which suits explorers over sun-loungers.

One realistic caveat With ten berths, you'll want to confirm cabin layouts and head arrangements before booking, back-to-back charters with larger groups can mean tighter quarters than the numbers suggest. Clarify sleeping configurations with Y Knot Yachting upfront to avoid surprises when your crew arrives.
