Bavaria Yachts unveiled its new sailing yacht, the Cruiser 34, at the Boot in Düsseldorf (January 23-30, 2016) for the first time. It is the 8th e model of the Cruiser Line âeuros intended for classic cruising - which goes from Cruiser 33 (9.99 m) to Cruiser 56 (16.75 m).
The Cruiser 34 is the second 9.99-meter-long sailboat, after the Cruiser 33, launched in 2012 by the German shipyard. It is characterized by its large cockpit and two steering wheels and its comfortable layout with 3 cabins (compared to 2 for the Cruiser 33).
From the two steering wheels, the helmsman has a clear view of the whole boat. In the cockpit there are also ergonomic seats to enjoy a long trip at sea in comfort. The cockpit has been enlarged and offers plenty of space, from the retractable swim platform to the cockpit companionway. Sail adjustment is easy: the mainsheet is brought back to the roof and the headsail is adjusted from the winches in the cockpit. This way, the helmsman has everything at hand.
Below deck, in the saloon, there are three double cabins that can accommodate up to 6 people. The L-shaped kitchen is equipped with a sink, a gas stove and an icebox. The three cabins are equipped with storage space and a bathroom with shower completes the interior layout. A maximum of facilities for a 10 m long sailboat.
