The 4 cabin’s bareboat sailing yacht Bavaria 44 was built in 2003 and it is docked in Rijeka, Croatia. The Bavaria 44 (2003) can accommodate up to 8 people in 4 cabins and it has 2 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 46 ft / 14,0 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): air condition, stand up paddle (sup) and it’s obligatory extras: permit. The main sail is furling/roll. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 08:30 h.
Why charter this Bavaria 44
4 cabins for 8 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 4 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 14 m, this sailing yacht works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Bavaria 44 suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 4 cabins and 2 heads. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
The Kvarner islands from Rijeka
Rijeka is a full-scale commercial port, not a resort, and that shapes the start: the base sits in a working harbour at the head of the Kvarner, so the first move is usually to clear the shipping and drop down to quieter water on Krk or Cres before settling in. The airport (RJK) is unusual in being out on Krk, bridged to the mainland, so there is no ferry in the transfer, 30–50 minutes by road; Zagreb (ZAG) is the long inland option. Cres, the long green island filling the middle of the gulf, is the obvious spine of a week, its west-coast harbours and the Lošinj channel giving sheltered hops with only the odd exposed corner where the Velebit bora funnels through. Time those corners for quiet air and turn for home with a day to spare rather than a dash on the last. Carry on to outer Lošinj or across toward the Zadar islands, and the legs lengthen into a longer trip.
