The Bavaria Cruiser 40 S is a kind of tuned version of the production boat Cruiser 40. The hull remains the same, but the keel and sailing weapons have been seriously improved. The keel went deeper and changed its profile. The mast became higher, the sailing area increased significantly and the sails became laminate.
To further improve sailing performance, the boat was lightened by several hundred kilos by simplifying and lightening the interior and some details of the hull construction. The result is a good club racer, while retaining almost all the advantages of a parent pure cruising yacht.
