49 Bavaria 2006 Boat for Sale

49' Bavaria 2006

2006 Bavaria 50 Cruiser "Filippos" — Greece

There is a reason the Bavaria 50 Cruiser became one of the most recognizable large production cruisers of its generation. Designed for serious Mediterranean sailing with the comfort of a true liveaboard volume boat, she combines elegant deck lines, a generous beam carried aft, and an interior that feels closer to a small yacht than a barebones charter shell.

"Filippos" is a 2006 example of that celebrated Cruiser 50 platform—built by Bavaria Yachts in Germany and conceived as a capable, well-balanced cruising sloop. At roughly fifty feet overall, with the beam and sail plan that define the class, she was drawn to move with authority in light air yet remain manageable for a couple or family under way. Reviewers of the model praised her manners under sail and her composure under power: the twin-helm cockpit, twin-rudder control, and solid helm feel that make long passages and island hopping both practical and genuinely enjoyable.

Below, the Cruiser 50's reputation rests on space and light. Headroom in the saloon approaches a full two metres, with a bright, open arrangement fed by an abundance of hatches and ports. The galley is set up for real time aboard—sea-going and working—while the multi-cabin layout (factory-offered in three-, four-, or five-cabin configurations) made the model a favourite for families, friends, and guest programmes alike. Layout on this vessel should be confirmed with the listing broker; charter-era marketing for Filippos has cited the popular five-cabin arrangement.

On deck she presents as a proper cruising yacht: a wide, sociable cockpit, a bathing platform at the stern, and the kind of deck volume that invites long seasons in the Greek islands and beyond. Propulsion is the class-typical Volvo Penta D2-75 diesel (75 hp), serial 5103941770 on file—the workhorse saildrive diesel most owners associate with this generation of Bavaria cruisers. Under power, sisterships of the type have shown easy mid-seven-knot cruise and strong control when manoeuvring—exactly what you want arriving in a busy Mediterranean harbour.

Filippos is Greek-flagged (Patra register no. 554, call sign SY 6632, MMSI 239014400). Register dimensions on file: LOA 49.1 ft, beam 14.7 ft, register length 45.2 ft, depth 6.2 ft, GT 29.79 / NT 28.50. She carries the DNA of a yacht that has already proven herself in Med cruising and guest use—ready for a private owner seeking volume, comfort, and a platform with real sailing character.
