Bavaria 46 Vision for sale in Bradenton, Florida United States of America

The Vision 46 is a rare find; coveted by their owners, designed by Farr, using only high quality materials, employing best in class finishing techniques, wrapped inside an elegant and functional design concept.

It becomes immediately obvious as one descends the asymmetrical companionway, the galley, to port, is unexpectedly spacious - the centerline sink is a welcome refinement. Bright and airy, the large windows radiate daylight throughout the main salon. Forward of the galley the settee/navigation table can be converted into a continuous bench/berth. To starboard is an electric adjustable height dinette and two separate chairs which comfortably seat 6 or become a double berth. 

Up forward, the master stateroom includes a double berth with an ensuite head and shower stall. Aft of the galley is the guest compartment containing two single berths and to starboard aft of the dining area is the aft head and shower compartment. Through the shower, a door opens into an extended storage compartment also accessible via the starboard cockpit seat.

An additional benefit to the offset companionway; the cockpit is streamline and comfortable. The twin helms which provide excellent visibility combine nicely with the Farr-designed hydrodynamics and generous sail package to offer that most elusive balance between thrill and comfort. The bathing platform integrated into the stern provides convenient access to the water, dinghy and shower.
