Oceanis 46 sailing yacht – Bari

Yacht Overview

We’ve sailed and advised on countless boats from the Adriatic to the Med, and the Oceanis 46 in Bari is one of those choices that simply feels right for a relaxed, well-organized voyage. Built in 2011, this sailboat was designed for comfortable chartering, with a layout that suits families and small groups who want real space below deck.

At 14.09 meters long with a 4.03-meter beam, she carries plenty of stability and a confident presence under sail. Our guests who have trusted us with similar itineraries often tell us the same thing: the 4-cabin arrangement makes planning easy, and everyone gets their own breathing room. You’ll find 8 berths in the cabins, plus 2 additional sleeping places, so the boat works smoothly when you travel with friends or a mixed-age crew.

From our experience in Bari, the local sailing conditions pair beautifully with a modern setup for navigation and control. You’ll have a GPS plotter and VHF radio for clear communication at sea, plus an autopilot that turns long stretches into something far more effortless. When the breeze shifts, the bow thruster can be a welcome hand during docking—actually, we’ve seen it make arrivals in busy marinas noticeably calmer. There’s also a full-batten mainsail and a roll genoa, which helps keep sail handling practical and efficient.

Inside and around the cockpit, comfort is taken seriously. Hot water and heating extend the season, while the cockpit shower and bimini top add that “instant relief” feeling during warmer hours. Add deck cushions, wind instruments, and the shower-and-navigation blend, and you get a sailboat that’s ready for everyday cruising—just you, the sea, and a smooth rhythm!
