Bavaria S40 Coupe (2014 - 2022) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the S40 Coupe delivers speeds of up to 32 knots.

Accommodation

The Bavaria Yachts S40 Coupe offers a versatile accommodation layout that caters to both day boating enthusiasts and those who may occasionally seek overnight or weekend getaways. Additionally, its maximum guest capacity of four ensures there's ample space for a small group of friends or family, making it suitable for day outings with the possibility of occasional overnight or weekend use. Conversely, some of its rivals like the Bavaria Yachts R40 Coupé, Beneteau Yachts 40, Tiara Yachts C39, Jeanneau 40, Sessa Marine C42, Galeon 410 HTC and Sealine S390 with their simpler two cabin configurations may be better suited for day boating enthusiasts who prioritize open-water adventures and occasional overnight escapes.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Bavaria Yachts S40 Coupe has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 25 knots and a top speed of 32 knots. The Bavaria Yachts S40 Coupe emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination. The title for the fastest cruising speed goes to the Beneteau Yachts 40 which has an impressive cruising speed of 32 knots powered by its twin 300hp Volvo Penta D4-300 engines and can reach a top speed of 38 knots.
