Bavaria C50 TAWAHO

An exceptional opportunity to secure a meticulously maintained, extensively upgraded Bavaria C50, fully equipped for serious offshore cruising and bluewater passagemaking.

Presented in like-new condition, Tawaho is a superb example of the highly regarded Bavaria C50. Having had just one owner from new, she has benefited from an extensive programme of upgrades, with no expense spared in creating a capable, comfortable and self-sufficient offshore cruising yacht.

Designed by Cossutti Yacht Design, the Bavaria C50 combines impressive sailing performance with exceptional onboard comfort. Tawaho takes this a step further, having been thoughtfully prepared and continually refined by an experienced owner, with virtually every aspect of her offshore capability considered.
Her extensively upgraded Selden rig includes an additional inner forestay, running backstays, dedicated trysail track, additional halyards and a third reef. Her comprehensive offshore sail inventory includes Elvstrom mainsail and genoa, a Doyle Code Zero, staysail, storm jib and trysail, providing excellent versatility across a wide range of sailing conditions.

In January 2026, Tawaho underwent a major electrical upgrade, incorporating an 800Ah Victron lithium battery bank, Victron Quattro inverter/charger and a Zeus 225-amp high-output alternator. Complemented by solar panels and a Fischer Panda generator, this impressive electrical installation provides the redundancy and independence required for extended offshore cruising.

Further significant upgrades include a new 240-litre-per-hour watermaker installed in 2026, an extensive B&G navigation package with three chartplotters, forward-facing sonar, Vesper AIS and Starlink connectivity. Her 80hp Yanmar diesel, four-bladed feathering Kiwiprop and comprehensive inventory of spares complete an impressive offshore cruising package.

Below decks, Tawaho offers the spacious, contemporary accommodation for which the Bavaria C50 is renowned. Her interior has been further enhanced with upgraded saloon upholstery in 2026, improved refrigeration, a dedicated freezer and a washer/dryer, providing all the comforts of home for extended periods aboard.

Having successfully cruised between Fiji, Vanuatu, New Caledonia and New Zealand over the past four years, Tawaho has proven herself as a capable and comfortable offshore passagemaker. Her owner's meticulous attention to maintenance and continuous investment in upgrades are evident throughout the vessel.
Currently lying in Fiji, Tawaho is offered with prepaid off-season storage already booked at Vuda Marina, providing her next owner with an excellent opportunity to secure this outstanding yacht and plan their next South Pacific adventure.

For buyers seeking a modern, comprehensively equipped offshore cruising yacht without the time and expense of undertaking extensive upgrades themselves, Tawaho represents an exceptional opportunity.
