Description

The Bavaria 36 offers class-leading accommodation with a particularly spacious forward cabin and very generous storage. 'Jal Amande' is the preferred owner's version offering two double sleeping cabins combined with a spacious saloon, aft galley, and lots of storage. She is also fitted with the sought-after larger engine and has an in-mast furling mainsail for simple sail handling. 'Jal Amande' is very well equipped including heating, radar, AIS receiver, cockpit enclosure and feathering propeller. As her current owner is having to give up sailing she is being sold ready to go including RYA books, binoculars, crockery & cutlery etc. and is priced for a quick sale. The berth at Burnham Yacht Harbour is available until 31st March 2025. There is a September 2024 survey available to interested parties.
