The 5 cabin’s bareboat sailing yacht Bavaria Cruiser 51 was built in 2016 and it is docked in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The Bavaria Cruiser 51 (2016) can accommodate up to 10 people in 5 cabins and it has 3 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 51 ft / 15,6 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): autopilot, dinghy, bimini top, GPS chart plotter, electric anchor windlass, inverter, swimming ladder and it’s obligatory extras: outboard engine, charter package. The main sail is full batten. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 09:00 h.
Why charter this Bavaria Cruiser 51
5 cabins for 10 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 3.3 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 15,6 m, this sailing yacht works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Bavaria Cruiser 51 suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 5 cabins and 3 heads. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
The Elafiti, Mljet and Korčula from Dubrovnik
Sailing out from under the honey-coloured ramparts of Dubrovnik is the sort of departure that sets the tone for a week. The green Elafiti islands lie just north, and Dubrovnik Airport (DBV) is a short drive south of the old city, with Split (SPU) the longer way in. After handover, Lopud or the Zaton bay makes a first night close to base, well sheltered unless the sirocco is blowing up from the south. You reach the Elafiti, forested Mljet with its two salt lakes, and vineyard-clad Korčula in a week, none more than a day’s sail apart. The bigger commitment is south into Montenegro, which adds open water and a border clearance, so if you take it, plan the return with a day in hand. Lastovo, further out to sea, and that Montenegrin coast need the extra days a week can’t give.
