2012 Bavaria Vision 46

The 2012 Bavaria Vision 46 is a 46-foot fiberglass sailing yacht designed by Bruce Farr, combining responsive sailing characteristics with practical cruising comfort. Powered by a 55-horsepower Volvo Penta diesel engine, the boat reaches a maximum speed of 8.9 knots and cruises efficiently at 5.6 knots. The hull spans 13.67 feet at the beam, providing stability and interior volume across a straightforward deck layout.

Below deck, the boat features three cabins and two heads arranged around a well-appointed main salon. The galley is generously sized with a U-shaped counter, while the salon benefits from multiple windows that flood the space with natural light. An offset companionway creates an unusually spacious cockpit with a day bed, and the salon includes an electric dining table. Dual steering stations are fitted, supporting short-handed operation and extended cruising.

The boat has undergone steady maintenance and targeted upgrades. New standing rigging and lifelines were installed in 2017, along with an autopilot. More recent work includes new running rigging, a new bimini top fitted in 2024, bottom paint applied in September 2025, and a comprehensive detail and wax in April 2026. Navigation equipment consists of a Garmin EcoMap SV 93 plotter, and power management is supported by a 3,000-watt pure sine wave inverter.
