BAVARIA 32 HOLIDAY (6 PERS.)
A new addition to our fleet. This boat sails well and fast but, owing to the large helm and rudder, manoeuvres like it runs on rails. The hull is reinforced with Kevlar for extra security. The cabin lay-out is perfect. The fine finish, good standing height, spacious galley with oven, large lavatory compartment and two lockable double cabins meet the highest standards.

JEANNEAU S.O. 34.2 (6 PERS.)
The flagship of the Maran fleet, equipped with a skeg keel that means a draught of only 110 cm without the sacrifice of smooth and stable sailing properties. The interior is exceptionally spacious, with two lockable double cabins. Ideal for a longer stay aboard and more extensive trips. This is a touring vessel with racing allure.

Dit unieke ontwerp ( b.j. 2001 )met een stahoogte van 1,83 meter en een riant bed van 2.00 bij 1.60 in de achterkajuit zal u aangenaam verrassen. Voor de 4 personen is dit sportieve schip een genot om te zeilen, maar heeft tevens het comfort dat u eerder op een veel groter schip zou verwachten. De grote kuip van de S.O. 26 geeft zeer veel comfort en is door het uitneembare middendeel eenvoudig vanaf de wal te betreden. Natuurlijk zijn alle vallen/schoten en het snelreefsysteem vanuit de kuip te bedienen
