By separating the cruiser from the racer, the Bavaria Yachts were more lavish with appointments and added a little weight in order to enhance the boat’s cruising appeal. Belowdecks, this vessel is furnished with generous quantities of thoughtfully designed mahogany joiner work, and above, the cockpit is sculpted more for the needs of loungers than for energetic line trailers. The Bavaria 39 has a three-cabin layout, two aft, and one forward. In a boat that is long 39ft, that dictates an along-the-side galley in the saloon. The 39 has enough beam to carry it off, the galley is workable on either tack by virtue of the high seat back on the island settee that completes the four-sided dining area. The Bonus in this arrangement is the full-size nav table and the roomy aft head.
