Reviews of the Bavaria 50 describe it as a spacious, comfortable, and stable cruising sailboat, pleasant to sail but less “jaunty” than the Bavaria 45. It is appreciated for its large cockpit and functional design with twin rudders that ensure good visibility. Performance is considered adequate for the average owner, with good cruising speeds both under sail and under power.
Strengths
Performance: It reaches good cruising speeds both under sail and under power (about 8 knots under power), and the hull meets the needs of an average owner.
Navigation: Considered pleasant and calm, easy to handle even with a small crew.
Space: It offers a spacious cockpit with two large sofas, ideal for relaxing with friends, and comfortable interior spaces.
Ergonomics: The controls are well-positioned and easily accessible from both sides.
Built in 2007, refitted in 2022
