About
1988 Bavaria 30 "Chevaldy" in Langkawi
Here's a genuine opportunity to get into a 30-foot bluewater cruiser at a basement price. "Chevaldy" is a 1988 Bavaria 30, and while she needs some updating to bring her interior and cosmetics up to modern standards, she offers what truly matters: a solid hull and a spacious, ergonomic layout that rivals many 34-footers.
Designed by the renowned J&J Yacht Design and built to a standard that has earned a reputation for toughness, this Bavaria is no lightweight production special. The hull is constructed from solid laminate using a hand lay-up process, making her robust and reassuringly sturdy. She tips the scales at just over 4 tonnes, with a cast iron keel providing a stable, secure motion at sea. As one owner review puts it: "She is very well built and as tough as old boots."
Perfect for the DIY Enthusiast:This is a "sweat-equity" special. She is a functional, sailing boat, but her age means she's looking for an owner to invest some love and elbow grease. Think of her as a blank canvas where you can update the interior, electronics, and deck hardware to your exact taste, without paying a premium for someone else's choices.
World-Class Location: Rebak Marina, Langkawi"Chevaldy" is currently berthed in one of Southeast Asia's premier cruising destinations: Rebak Marina on the private island of Rebak, Langkawi.
Secure & Protected: Rebak Marina is a safe, modern, and protected facility, offering a secure base for your project.
Top-Tier Facilities: You'll have full access to resort amenities, including a pool, private beach, and restaurants, making it a pleasure to work on your boat.
Cruising Hub: Langkawi is a duty-free island, meaning your cruising budget stretches further—from fuel to provisions. It's a major hub for the international cruising community, so you'll be plugged into a network of sailors and services from day one.
Professional Support: A variety of marine services companies, ready to assist with your projects.
