This is a very rare opportunity to purchase a Bavaria 44 - a proven world cruising large volume yacht.
Haven III is a lovely and well maintained cruiser/liveaboard.
Surveyed in 2024, she is ready to cruise with her new owners... Just move onboard and set sail.
In the last couple of years her current owner has added a number of upgrades and replacements, including:
- new Bow Thruster 2024
- new sail drive 2024
- batteries
- last antifoulded in January 2024
- rigging renewed and upsized in 2015; all running rigging renewed in 2018/19
- engine serviced 10/24
The spacious cockpit features twin-wheel steering with a centre pedestal electronic display and built-in ice box.
Below is a generous saloon with banquet style dinette to seat 8.
To starboard is a large skipper's chart table area, comfortable and well lit, whilst to port is a sizeable galley, featuring an 80L refrigerator, a two-burner gas stove, twin sink and lots of bench space.
Forward is a generous master V berth with ensuite and aft has two double cabins. A second bathroom is located portside. Hot and cold water available in bathrooms and kitchen.
Fans fitted in all cabins.
S/s BBQ
Many other extras included.
This boat is very easy to board via the sugar scoop transom (with swim ladder) and a custom made s/s boarding bar.
Well built and in sound structural condition, Haven III is an ideal family or couples adventure yacht, but also capable of single-handed sailing.
Owner is wanting to sell so don't let this one pass you by.
Highly recommend an inspection, please phone
