Bavaria R55

An Introduction 

VALLUGA offers a superb balance of space, comfort, and performance. The layout is designed around three generous guest cabins: an impressive VIP forward, a versatile twin, and a full-beam owner’s suite. Each has large panoramic windows, creating a bright and open feel, and all benefit from their own en-suite bathroom. For added flexibility, there is also a crew cabin accessed from the bathing platform, complete with its own heads, which is useful when swimming.   

The spacious saloon is designed with the galley aft, and helm position to starboard with an opening side door onto the starboard side deck. The galley is very well appointed with everything you need for adventures with the Family, including Oven, hob, and slimline dish washer.   

She is powered by Volvo Penta IPS 800 engines with IPS drives. The joystick docking system makes handling straightforward, whether from the lower helm, the flybridge, or the additional stern station. This means the yacht is easy to manage in all situations, without the need for a large crew. She is commercially compliant and registered for charter, although she has only been very lightly chartered, always under the care of a professional captain. 

The flybridge is a great social space, with a good quality bimini providing shade, generous seating, and a well-fitted wet bar with electric BBQ, sink, and fridge. On the foredeck, a large sun pad offers a private area to relax either in port or at anchor. Teak decking runs throughout, giving a premium finish, while the hydraulic bathing platform with telescopic steps provides easy access to the sea and enables stowage of the Williams 285 Turbojet tender. The platform has also been upgraded with an additional wet bar, with sink and electric grill.   

Navigation and onboard systems are well thought out, including an EVO 3 touchscreen plotter, autopilot, VHF, and docking camera.   

Tropical air conditioning ensures the interior remains comfortable in all climates. Storage has also been well considered, with a large locker at the bathing platform. Overall, this is a yacht that has been carefully specified and well maintained. She combines comfortable accommodation, practical features, and strong performance, making her a very attractive option for private use or for an owner looking for charter potential.
