The Bavaria 30 Cruiser offers class-leading accommodation, often compared favourably to rivals such as the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 32 and Beneteau Oceanis 311. Moomba has been based on the East Coast for local cruising and appears to be well cared for. She has the in-mast furling option, and paired with all of lines led aft, makes her easily sailed with a short handed crew.
