"In a rather weak marketing environment, we want to offer our customers an extra incentive to decide on a yacht from Giebelstadt," explains Andres Cardenas, CEO Bavaria Yachtbau.

The discounts in cash terms range from $18,000 to around $60,000 off the Australian base price depending on the model. Bavaria Yachts Australia said that with rumours of an improving American economy just over the horizon and the specter of potential inflation down the track, it is unlikely there will ever be a better price for a new production yacht.

Bavaria Yachtbau is able to build and offer yachts over 50 feet following the investment of over ten million Euros in new production lines and installations. The expansion of the yard in Giebelstadt, Germany has been completed after a construction time of ten months. Further investment has also included the painting and varnishing plant being expanded along with other installations that are essential for the quality of Bavaria Yachts. "With this raised efficiency and improved productivity and product quality, Bavaria is well placed, even in hard times," Cardenas said.

Bavaria Yachtbau builds round 3000 boats per year at its production site in Giebelstadt. Each yacht is produced exclusively to order. New Bavaria products are provided with the 'Yacht Plus' certificate by Germanischer Lloyd.
