On Deck

Nick was particularly impressed by the yacht's sleek design, specifically the forward-sweeping radar arc.

There is an extended bathing platform, manual bilge pump, and deck shower. He also highlighted the decent-sized cockpit, which can be transformed into a sun pad. A canopy can enclose the entire area, turning it into a living space during inclement weather.

Nick also appreciated the wet bar, equipped with a sink, barbecue, and fridge. He noted the boat's effective use of space, favoring a seating arrangement that allows for multiple people to face forward while cruising.

The yacht has a single engine, which Nick found to be sufficient. He also pointed out the multifunction display, VHF radio, and engine instrumentation. He commended the switch panel for the boat, which controls lights, pumps, and other features.

Nick lauded Bavaria's particular design of bringing the rail all the way back, providing immediate protection as one steps onto the side deck. He also showed the radar arch, anchor winch, and the solid construction of the yacht.

Interior

Below deck, the layout includes a dinette that can be converted into a double bed. He appreciated the light wood finish, which he felt made the interior feel modern and spacious. The galley is all electric and includes a fridge, sink, and storage.

The yacht also features a mid cabin with a clever layout that maximizes the use of space. Nick praised the large bed and the additional storage. He also showed the heads, which, while not having a separate shower compartment, he found to be decent-sized and perfectly usable.

Performance

The engine room houses a Volvo Penta D4-300, which Nick believes is a popular choice for this size of a boat due to its economical fuel consumption and servicing costs. He also noted the spacious engine room, which allows for easy access around the engine.

In Summary

Despite a few shortcomings, such as the lack of a separate shower compartment, Nick was overall impressed with the Bavaria S30's design, functionality, and features.
