Pre-Purchase Inspection

Circe is a 2008 Bavaria 40 cruiser, listed exclusively for sale with YOTI on Pittwater, Sydney.

This is a well-regarded cruising yacht that strikes a great balance between comfort, space, and easy sailing. Designed with Bavaria's modern hull form and twin helm configuration, she offers a stable and confidence-inspiring platform whether you're day sailing on Sydney Harbour or heading up the East Coast.

The wide aft beam creates a generous cockpit and significant interior volume, while the twin wheel setup provides excellent visibility and easy flow through the cockpit. She is a genuinely easy boat to sail short-handed, with all lines led aft and a well-thought-out deck layout that makes her ideal for relaxed cruising with family and friends.

Down below, you'll find the classic Bavaria interior, practical, functional, and designed around real-world cruising. The in-line galley, forward-facing navigation station, and three-cabin, two-head layout make her a highly versatile platform with plenty of space onboard.
