The Bavaria C38 has a modern, innovative hull shape with chines and a V-shaped bow developed by BAVARIA YACHTS. These striking hull design characteristics not only give the C38 more space below deck, they also provide unusual good sailing performance. The Bavaria chines ensure more stability, a longer waterline and therefore better performance and a more direct feeling when steering. But the prominent angle at the stern of the Bavaria C38 has another advantage. It yields more space for the stern cabins, providing more comfort.
Call now to arrange a tour and see for yourself the quality. Wave Dancer is ready for you to set sail this summer!
