About the BAVARIA 1060
The Bavaria 1060 is a 34.78 ft masthead sloop designed by Axel Mohnhaupt and built by Bavaria Yachts (GER) in 1985. With a displacement of 12000.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 24.93, this vessel represents a specific era of German production cruising yachts, though the exact number of hulls built remains unconfirmed in available records.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal cruisers and weekend sailors who prioritize a spacious, comfortable interior layout typical of Bavaria's cabin-focused designs over high-performance racing capabilities.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 1.94 and a displacement of 12000.0 lb, the Bavaria 1060 offers moderate offshore stability, though its single-year production run and lack of extensive bluewater owner reports suggest it is better suited for protected waters than extended ocean passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Bavaria 34 and other mid-1980s European production cruisers like the Beneteau First 343, as they share similar dimensions, masthead sloop rigs, and a focus on interior volume over pure speed.
