Bavaria C42 - Sofia - 2022

Discover the Ionian Islands from Corfu aboard Sofia, a 2022 Bavaria C42 sailboat that combines modern comfort with the freedom of bareboat cruising. Based in Kerkyra, this 12.4-metre vessel is your gateway to Greece's most enchanting waters—a region where emerald coves nestle beneath limestone cliffs, and traditional fishing villages dot the coastline. Whether you're an experienced sailor seeking a week of pure sailing or a family wanting to explore hidden anchorages at a leisurely pace, Sofia offers the perfect balance of capability and ease. The yacht accommodates up to seven guests across three comfortable cabins, making her ideal for two couples, a small family, or a group of friends seeking adventure together. A full galley with refrigeration keeps provisions fresh through your voyage, while two heads ensure comfort for all aboard. Sofia's 2022 build means modern systems throughout—an autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, while the bow thruster makes tight anchorages effortless, even for less experienced crews. Navigation is intuitive with GPS and chart plotter, supported by radar for peace of mind in changing conditions. Solar panels top the rig, reducing generator dependency and keeping your week quietly sustainable. Beyond the essentials, Sofia invites exploration. The included dinghy opens access to secluded beaches and shallow anchorages unreachable by larger vessels, while a stand-up paddle board extends your connection to the water. Anemometer and wind vane keep you informed of conditions, and the EPIRB provides security for offshore passages. Deck space is generous for sunbathing, and the cockpit layout encourages long evenings under the stars. A week aboard unfolds as a rhythm of sailing, swimming, and discovery—mornings raising sail toward Paleokastritsa or Sivota, afternoons anchored in crystalline water where you can paddle ashore for fresh seafood and local wine as the sun descends toward Albania's distant peaks.
