On Deck

On the exterior, Nick found the back of the yacht to be neat with a barbecue and sink, making it a great area for outdoor cooking. The foredeck had sunbeds and seating with a fridge tucked in, which he found to be quite useful.

Nick liked the handrails and the flat roof with an opening section, although he noted that the alternative flybridge version would lose the sliding roof but gain an upper helm and seating area. The foredeck can be fitted with sun loungers and a sunshade. The yacht also has a nice little seat at the front, an ideal setup.

Interior

Inside the galley is placed underneath the sideboard on the port side, which includes a ceramic hob and sink. He found the dishwasher to be a remarkable addition. The dining area is sizable once the table is extended, and the helm, a couple of steps up, gives a good view outside and has the option to stand for those who prefer it. There is a side door at the helm for easy access to the deck, of special use to those who are short on crew.

The lower deck contains two good-sized cabins. The forward cabin has decent-sized windows, wardrobes, and drawers. The master cabin has its private ensuite, and due to the raised area at the helm above, offers headroom without raising the profile of the entire boat. He found the layout of the yacht to be great for a 40-foot boat.

Performance

The engines, Volvo Penta D6-370 horsepower stern-drives, are located under the floor. These were considered to be pretty good for a 40-footer yacht.  

In Summary

Overall, Nick was quite impressed with the Bavaria R40 Coupé, calling it a great family boat.
