Bavaria 47 Ocean

The Bavaria Ocean 47 is a well-conceived cruising yacht combining performance, comfort, and elegant design. Moonglow VII exemplifies Bavaria’s commitment to crafting seaworthy vessels suitable for long-distance sailing.

On deck, her center cockpit is well protected and comfortable. Wide side decks provide easy movement from bow to stern. Storage is optimized for long distance cruising with large lockers fore and aft. In mast mainsail furling and electric primary winches allow her to be easily sailed shorthanded.

Below deck, the interior is beautifully appointed, featuring a spacious salon with large windows that flood the space with natural light. Her large galley is well configured for long term living aboard. The aft master stateroom with walk around berth plus two guest staterooms easily accommodates six.

Manufacturer Provided Description

The Bavaria 47 Ocean is a bluewater cruiser that is as comfortable at anchor as she is stretching her legs at sea. The Bavaria 47 Ocean has three spacious cabins, a raised salon, a large galley and nav station, as well as two heads with a separate shower stall. The Bavaria 47 Ocean is constructed with a sandwich laminate, a technology used with aircraft and icebreaking boats. This laminate of water repellent and closed-pore foam increases the durability of the shell while decreasing heat conductivity, thus preventing condensation and making the living climate more pleasant. As well, Kevlar fabric is worked into the collision endangered forebody, and a coat of isophthalic acid resin combined with powder-bounded glass mat prevents osmosis and keeps the laminate watertight. Bavaria builds according to the specifications and supervision of Germanischer Lloyd.
