The Cruiser 46 is one of the best-selling sailboats in Europe in recent years. The boat has been appreciated by owners and journalists for its extremely fine qualities as a well-sailing family boat with thoughtful and innovative interior. The boat has been awarded Yacht of the Year in Europe, and the jury's motivation reflects the boat's qualities well: "In a class with very tough competition, Bavaria Cruiser 46 has finally won against many strong candidates as it is a boat with the highest solidity and robustness. She sails well and balanced and has a lot of space and sets a new standard for workmanship and features. Much respect!" Farr Yacht Design is responsible for the fast and well-sailing hull. The Cruiser 46 is also available in a Style version, where the salon layout differs slightly and is characterized by high comfort and exclusivity in design and details.
Inside, it's evident that Design Unlimited is one of the most renowned design firms when it comes to planning large boats. The boat exudes a wonderful atmosphere with soft yet modern forms, creating a cozy feel. Examples of interior finesse include the chart table integrated into the saloon table, providing larger saloon sofas. A fold-out seat from the kitchen island increases the seating around the saloon sofa. The Style version features a more open layout with a bench seat and an inviting U-shaped sofa around the table. In the forepeak, you can either have a very large owner's cabin or two cabins with double berths. Regardless of the configuration, there are large wardrobe and shelf cabinets for storage and portholes in the hull for light and a connection with nature. Aft, there are two large cabins with double berths and their own WC facilities. The boat can be ordered with three or four cabins, and a new concept allows the forepeak to be converted from one to two cabins in under half an hour.
Externally, the boat features Bavaria's new design language with large side windows in the superstructure and numerous skylights for light and comfort on board.
The new dual console steering provides control for the helmsman. Long L-shaped cockpit seats and a large cockpit table provide comfort in the cockpit for a large crew. There are ample deck areas for easy movement and the opportunity to find a spot in the sun.
