, our Bavaria Cruiser 46. Built in 2021, she features modern technical equipment and a high level of comfort. The Manatee yacht is based at Marina Kornati in Biograd (Croatia), is meticulously maintained as part of the Pitter fleet, and is prepared for your sailing trip with great attention to detail. This makes her exactly the kind of cruising yacht you can charter later for your own adventures.

You can find more information about the yacht from Bavaria or Sailboatdata.
The yacht reaches a speed of 6 knots in winds as low as 10 knots, runs fairly close upwind, glides smoothly like it’s on rails thanks to its twin rudders, and rides the waves calmly due to its displacement. The rig is by Seldén, the sails are by Elvstrøm, and the navigation system is by B&G.

Safety on the Water
Safety is a key focus of our Captain Basic and Skipper Pro courses. As a sailing school, we naturally place a high priority on safety aboard our Avior. That is why the yacht is equipped with state-of-the-art gear that is regularly maintained and approved for commercial use.
