Specifications
Bavaria 32 (2003) motorboat – comfortable cruiser with twin Volvo Penta diesels and full equipment
This 2003 Bavaria 32 is a versatile 10.20-metre motorboat aimed at buyers looking for a practical yet comfortable cruiser for inland waterways and coastal waters. Thanks to its 3.15-metre beam and 1.45-metre draft, this model offers a stable position in the water and a pleasant balance between tracking and manoeuvrability. With an air draft of approx. 2.75 metres, the boat is also suitable for many cruising areas with bridges, while the interior headroom of around 2.00 metres contributes to a spacious feel on board. The polyester hull matches the character of a modern Bavaria motor yacht: low-maintenance, functional and designed for relaxed cruising.
Bavaria 32 now in the online auction. Anyone can bid up to and including 16 March 2026.
Performance and handling: twin diesel power and bow thruster
A key advantage of this Bavaria 32 is the configuration with two Volvo Penta diesel engines (model KD 32), both from 2003 and with approximately 750 running hours. Twin engines not only provide extra control when manoeuvring, but also deliver strong acceleration and a confident feel on open water. The stated cruising speed is around 15 km/h, while the top speed can reach approximately 55 km/h, making this motorboat interesting for both relaxed cruising and faster passages. Diesel consumption is stated at about 12 litres per hour, and with a 550-litre fuel tank a good range is possible for longer weekends or holiday trips.
When docking and navigating tight marinas, the electric bow thruster is a noticeable help. Combined with the twin-engine setup, this makes the Bavaria 32 accessible for skippers who like precise control, even in wind or current. The self-draining cockpit adds to practical use in changing weather conditions.
Interior and comfort: air conditioning, hot water and electric toilet compartment
On board, the Bavaria 32 is laid out for comfortable stays with four fixed berths and additional sleeping options up to a total of eight. This makes the motor yacht suitable for couples who want plenty of space, as well as for families or guests on board during a weekend away. The presence of air conditioning increases comfort on warm days, while the hot-air heating extends the season and keeps it pleasant in spring and autumn.
The galley is equipped with a cooker, refrigerator, freezer and microwave, making it easy to cook on board and keep provisions chilled. Hot water and a shower make staying on board more self-sufficient, especially when you are away for several days. The electric toilet is connected to a 75-litre holding tank, and the discharge does not go directly into open water, which suits use in many popular cruising areas. The water tank has a capacity of 120 litres, suitable for multi-day trips with normal use.
Navigation and technology: ready for inland waterways and coastal cruising
For navigation and monitoring, this Bavaria 32 is equipped with a depth sounder, chartplotter, compass, log/speedometer and VHF radio. This package supports both relaxed cruising on lakes and canals and planning routes on larger waters. In the engine room and at the helm there are instruments such as a fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, temperature gauge and tachometer, allowing you to monitor the engines properly while underway.
Electrically, the boat is set up with 12V and 220V systems, including shore power, battery charger and inverter. This makes it easy to connect in the marina and use appliances on board, while you also have practical power supply when underway. An electric bilge pump is fitted for extra security.
Exterior space and appearance: teak deck, cockpit tent and swim ladder
Outside, this Bavaria 32 offers an inviting living area with teak deck, guardrails and a cockpit table for dining or drinks in the cockpit. With sprayhood, cockpit tent and deck covers, the boat can be configured flexibly: open on sunny days and sheltered when the weather turns. Fenders and lines are included, increasing ease of use when mooring. The swim ladder makes it easy to swim or to re-board comfortably after a dip.
Maintenance information and use
The boat was last taken out of the water for maintenance in 2025 and received an antifouling treatment in 2025. According to the information provided, no osmosis has been identified. The Bavaria 32 has been used on inland waters and seas, and for day trips, weekend trips and holidays—exactly the cruising profile this type of motor yacht is known for: comfortable travel, practical living on board and confidently exploring different cruising areas.
This Bavaria 32 motorboat combines a well-thought-out layout, comprehensive onboard equipment and the control of twin Volvo Penta diesels. For buyers looking for a Bavaria motor yacht of around 10 metres with air conditioning, heating, a bow thruster and an attractive level of comfort, this is an interesting option to view.
