1986 Cytra Bavaria 40
Cytra's Convertible model Bavaria is a unique vessel in layout and design. The German ergonomic functionality was way ahead of her time. She was built with open design plan utilizing large windows throughout the salon and above the galley providing plenty of natural light. Getting around on this vessel was not an afterthought, with wide walkways to foredeck and salon entry. Even the bridge access ladder is centerline for safety. The bridge seating is more than ample and comfortable so the captain has an easy time keeping a navigator.
The Interior layout is just as user friendly. The full U-shaped galley has enough room for two and is adjacent to a large dinette to starboard, making it easy to serve meals. The portside head is kept cool and dry because the shower is on the opposing side. Large V -berth style master stateroom with generous headroom, natural lighting, hanging locker and plenty of storage. Salon seating provides a 360 degree view with large windows in case inclement weather forces you to use the lower helm.
This vessel screams stuctural integrity with oversized deck hardware, handrails, and a 6" gunnel rub rail for not so soft landings. One look in the engine room and a quick walk about is enough to make any experienced mariner smile. The spare parts list would make one think she is prepaired for a long adventure like the Great Loup, because she is. Actually M/V "Bavarian Cream", just got back and would love another easy tour around the dance floor. She only burns 4.5 gallons per hour at 8 knots, but will do 18+ if your in a hurry. Hit print, this one is worth seeing. *NEW BOTTOM JOB (2015) *See updated pictures!
