Bavaria E40 Fly

Yacht Model Overview

From our experience with Croatia sailings, the Bavaria Yachts E40 Fly is a very practical choice for guests who want a motor yacht with real live-onboard comfort. This model is a motor yacht, and the “Fly” layout gives you a protected helm area and a comfortable upper-view. We have noticed that many charterers in the Adriatic choose it for straightforward handling, predictable performance, and good use of space.

According to the manufacturer’s published specifications for the E40 Fly, this yacht was produced for the charter market in the 2017 build year range. In our records from guests who have trusted us, the 2017 boats are often the ones that feel most “ready to cruise” from the first day—systems are familiar, and the interior typically presents in very good condition.

The accommodation is laid out for groups without feeling cramped. Our guests commonly plan for 6 berths in cabins, plus additional sleeping capacity depending on the configuration used on board. In addition, there are 2 heads (WC), which matters a lot on longer passages and for mixed groups. We advise couples traveling with friends to look closely at how the extra berths are arranged, because the “feel” of the layout changes when the yacht is fully occupied.

We state with certainty that in Croatia—especially along popular routes—this size and layout are well suited. We observed that the E40 Fly works nicely for both day-to-day cruising and longer hops between marinas. The upper deck visibility helps during approach and docking, and the protected wheelhouse keeps the crew’s workload calmer when weather turns a bit! Actually, that’s where charter guests notice the difference most.

Based on our knowledge, Bavaria’s design philosophy focuses on usability: clear circulation, practical storage, and a cockpit that supports relaxation after a swim. If you want a motor yacht charter in Croatia with comfort for several guests and a cockpit-to-helm workflow that makes sense, we think this model deserves a serious look.
