Seller's Description

2007 Bavaria 37 Cruiser

I invite you to step aboard this beautiful German-built Bavaria 37 Cruiser. Bavaria Yachts have a rich history, this 37 Cruiser was designed by J&J Design. With a little over 32’ of waterline, she sails comfortably.

The cockpit is smartly designed to seat your crew. All of her rigging is in the cockpit with electric winches for ease of handling. The helm has an unobstructed view of the bow. She is outfitted with Garmin electronics and a bow thruster for controlled docking. The dodger and bimini provide great sun and foul weather protection.

This Bavaria 37 has been refitted by Doug Fisher, owner of Doug Fisher Performance Sailing, of Sarasota, FL. The carbon fiber sails, running and standing rigging, Garmin racing electronics, and bow thruster combine to create maximum ease of performance sailing craft. Below deck provides the comforts ideal for long-range or liveaboard sailing.

There are numerous opening deck hatches that provide natural light and ventilation into the cabin, all hatches have custom-fitted covers.

Down below she is elegantly comfortable! She has a proper navigation station with a large opening chart table, practical shelves, and cupboards. The control panel is easy to read and easily accessible. The saloon is set up to accommodate all passengers comfortably, and the galley table is exquisite and expands if needed.

This Bavaria has 2 cabins and one head, The L-shaped galley is well-appointed with in-counter refrigeration, a propane stove/oven, and nice cabinetry.

She is powered by a Volvo Penta D2-40 diesel engine with a saildrive that performs well. Her keel is a bulbed fin with a spade rudder.

Calculations

Hull Speed
9.6 kn
Classic: 7.95 kn

Hull Speed

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Formula

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

9.62 knots
Classic formula: 7.95 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
20.5
>20: high performance

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
20.53
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
30.2
<40: less stiff, less powerful

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

30.18
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
187.4
100-200: light

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
187.38
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
25.3
20-30: coastal cruiser

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
25.31
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
2.0
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
1.97
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
