Bavaria 44 - sharp look and good performance

Product Overview

Manufacturer:, price as reviewed:.

This was the first Bavaria by J&J Designs, which in 1993 was tasked with giving the range a sharper look and better performance. J&J introduced bulbed keels and a more efficient rudder design and a sleeker, lower hull profile. The Bavaria 44 is a big yacht in all respects, with six berths in three cabins including a suite forward and a second heads aft. The saloon is not ideally arranged for offshore use but works well in harbour. A charter-orientated Holiday version was also offered, but it tends to fetch lower prices today.

The Bavaria 44 is a 45.7ft fractional sloop designed by J&J Design and built in fiberglass by Bavaria Yachts (GER) between 2002 and 2004.

The Bavaria 44 is a light sailboat which is a good performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is average. There is a short water supply range.

Bavaria 44 is a 45 ′ 8 ″ / 13.9 m monohull sailboat designed by J&J Design and built by Bavaria Yachts between 2002 and 2004.

Drawing of Bavaria 44

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

  • SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

An update of the BAVARIA 42, and replaced by the BAVARIA 46 which is also similar.

Options & Alternatives

Draft Options

  • Deep Draft: The standard draft for the Bavaria 44 was around 6’5" (2.0m), which provides better performance and stability.
  • Shallow Draft: There was also a shallow draft option available, typically around 5’0" (1.65m), making it suitable for cruising in shallower waters.

Interior Layouts

  • Three-Cabin Layout: This layout includes three cabins, providing accommodation for up to six people. It features a spacious saloon, a well-equipped galley, and two heads (bathrooms).
  • Four-Cabin Layout: This layout offers four cabins, accommodating up to eight people. It also includes a large saloon, a galley, and two heads.

During its production run, the Bavaria 44 sailboat saw a couple of alternative versions and updates:

Bavaria 44 Vision

  • Enhanced Design: This version featured a more modern design with larger windows and a more spacious interior.
  • Improved Comfort: It offered enhanced comfort with better interior layouts and more luxurious finishes.

Bavaria 44 Cruiser

  • Updated Features: The Cruiser version included updated rigging and sail plans, making it more suitable for long-distance cruising.
  • Modern Amenities: It came with modern amenities and improved systems for better onboard living.

Bavaria 44 Holiday

  • Production Years: Early 2000s
  • Design Focus: This version was designed with chartering in mind, offering robust and practical features.
  • Interior Layouts: Typically featured a four-cabin layout to maximize accommodation, making it ideal for larger groups or families.
  • Amenities: Included practical amenities for comfortable living onboard during extended holidays.

The Bavaria 44 Holiday was popular among charter companies and private owners looking for a spacious and reliable cruiser.

Published Design Ratios for the Bavaria 44

  • A Sail Area/Displacement Ratio of 19.8 suggests that the Bavaria 44 will, in the right conditions, approach her maximum hull speed readily and satisfy the sailing performance expectations of most cruising sailors.
  • A Ballast/Displacement Ratio of 31.3 would usually mean that the Bavaria 44 would have a tendency to heel excessively in a gust, and need to be reefed early to keep her sailing upright in a moderate breeze. However, as she has much of her ballast concentrated in a bulb at the foot of the keel, she's likely to be considerably stiffer than her published Ballast/Displacement Ratio might suggest.
  • A Displacement/Length Ratio of 179 tells us the Bavaria 44 is clearly a light displacement sailboat. If she's loaded with too much heavy cruising gear her performance will suffer to a degree.
  • Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio of 24.6 suggests that crew comfort of a Bavaria 44 in a seaway is similar to what you would associate with the motion of a coastal cruiser with moderate stability, which is not encouraging news for anyone prone to seasickness. 
  • The Capsize Screening Formula (CSF) of 2.0 is on the cusp of suitability for an ocean passage, so venture offshore with caution.

Design Ratios: Notes of Caution...

  • The Sail Area/Displacement Ratio (SA/D): This ratio provides an estimate of the sail power relative to the boat's weight, which can indicate potential speed in various wind conditions.  But i t doesn't account for the efficiency of the sail plan, the rigging, or the skill of the crew. Real-world performance can vary significantly based on these factors.
  • The Ballast/Displacement Ratio (B/D): This ratio gives an idea of the boat's stability and stiffness, which is crucial for handling and safety.  But  it doesn't consider the distribution of the ballast or the hull shape, both of which can greatly affect stability. A high B/D ratio alone doesn't guarantee a stable boat if the ballast is poorly distributed.
  • The Displacement/Length Ratio (D/L): This ratio helps predict the boat's speed potential and its behaviour in different sea conditions.  But  it doesn't account for the hull design or the boat's overall weight distribution. Two boats with the same D/L ratio can perform very differently if their hull shapes are different.
  • The Comfort Ratio (CR): This ratio estimates the boat's motion comfort in a seaway, which is important for long passages.  But  it doesn't consider the boat's interior layout, which can also affect comfort. Additionally, personal tolerance to motion varies, so a boat that is comfortable for one person might not be for another.
  • The Capsize Screening Formula (CSF): This formula assesses the likelihood of a boat capsizing in heavy seas, which is critical for offshore safety.  But  it doesn't take into account the boat's handling characteristics or the skill of the crew. A boat with a low CSF can still capsize if poorly handled in severe conditions.

General Limitations

  • Static Nature: These ratios are static measurements and don't account for dynamic factors like wave action, wind gusts, or crew actions.
  • Simplification: They simplify complex interactions into single numbers, which can be misleading. Real-world performance is influenced by a multitude of factors that these ratios can't fully capture.
  • Context: The context in which the boat is used (e.g., coastal cruising vs. offshore racing) can greatly affect how these ratios should be interpreted.

In summary, while these ratios provide valuable insights into the theoretical performance characteristics of a sailboat, they should be used as part of a broader assessment that includes practical experience, sea trials, and expert advice.

Caribee is a 4 cabin, 2 head version of the fast and powerful Bavaria 44.  She has sleek European lines, a walkthrough transom, and a powerful sloop rig.  All lines lead to the cockpit for safe and secure boat handling.  Caribee has been fitted out with a long list of cruising upgrades over the past three years.  Come take a look, she is a tremendous value!

  • Bottom Painted in 2016

The Bavaria 44 is built for today. Luxurious down to the smallest detail. Elegant in appearance - without compromise. Conceived by the best designers, she belongs to a completely new generation of yachts, with specifications which until now were reserved for the most expensive and most exclusive yachts only. The fine tuning of all components of hull and rig make the 44 technologically perfect and beautiful in design. An interior warmth and coziness correspond with the perfect function of the pantry and the navigation center. Good atmosphere combines with the optimum safety of the crew on board. Bavaria's demands on designers were the combination of sport-style and comfort. The spacious interior layout and the woodwork, made to a high level of craftsmanship are proof of the yard's high experience, and guarantees a value that lasts for many years. The construction at crucial points is beyond the regulations by Lloyds. This increases safety at sea, increases the stability of value and makes living on board more comfortable. Sandwich laminate technology such as that used in the aircraft industry and on ice-breaking boats is used in the above-water hull and in the deck. The sandwich layer is of water-repellent closed-cell foam to increase the dent-resistance of the shell. Its low heat conductivity prevents condensation and makes the interior climate more pleasant. Kevlar fabric, the material of which bullet-proof jackets are made, is worked into the forebody below the waterline to protect against collision. The doubled laminate thickness of the keel flange triples the safety factor in case of impact. The floor timber is reinforced by stiff S-glass layers. The laminate is watertight and prevents osmosis.

Bavaria Yachts was founded in 1978 by the owner of the Winfried Hermann plastic window factory. As a yachtsman, he decided to re-equip the factory and launch the production of sailing cruise yachts at low prices. He liked the idea of making yachts more affordable. The plant began work with the release of 7 and 8-meter boats, and this was the first company in Germany to put the production of yachts on stream.

In 2001, Bavaria Yachts began producing motor yachts, and they also quickly gained popularity, which grew thanks to a winning price / quality ratio. All this has made Bavaria Yachts a national brand.

The flip side of the budget price tag and short production cycle is a simple design, inexpensive materials, build quality corresponding to mass production, and relatively modest driving characteristics.

The company produces a large line of fiberglass cruising sailing yachts from 30 to 65 feet, all of them have a traditional layout with a cockpit in the stern. The motor range includes several 33–55-foot yacht families. These are high-speed gliding cruisers made of fiberglass composite with and without flybridge, as well as open high-speed yachts of a relatively low price category.

In 2014, Bavaria acquired Nautitech, a manufacturer of catamarans from 40 to 54 feet.

I desperately need the electrical wiring diagrams for 2023 Bavaria C45. The shower drain sump pump is not getting power. This boat was just delivered. I’m really surprised at the cost point of this boat and it’s lack of available service information.

Olle Willberg ( Sunday, 11 December 2022 13:12 )

To whom it may concern, I am looking for the Manual of Bavaria 35 Sport HT model 2006. Skipper's or Owners manual. Special interest in electrical wiring and/or main swichboard location. I wonder if I can find help online somewhere? Best regards Olle Willberg

  1. BAVARIA 44

    A boat with a BN of 1.6 or greater is a boat that will be reefed often in offshore cruising. Derek Harvey, "Multihulls for Cruising and Racing", International Marine, Camden, Maine, 1991, states that a BN of 1 is generally accepted as the dividing line between so-called slow and fast multihulls.
