boat review

Salona aims its boats squarely at the performance cruising market, which was then dominated by X-Yachts and Beneteau’s First line in Europe, and J/Boats in the States.

Bavaria’s Cruiser 36 received mixed reviews when it was launched a few years back—not because of its sailing abilities, but because of its love-it-or-hate-it styling. Those pillbox-themed portlights and the concave curve to the cabintop sides were not stylists BMW Group Designworks’s most inspired treatments, although that didn’t prevent more than 350 examples from being built.
