Only just presented to the world at the ‘interboot’ boat show in Friedrichshafen, the new Bavaria Sport 34 has now been nominated for ‘European Powerboat of the Year’.
The latest model of the innovative Bavaria Sport Series, which was designed in close cooperation with BMW Group DesignworksUSA, a subsidiary of the BMW Group, impresses with its sportiness, dynamic and well-formed proportions.
“We are very pleased about the nomination, as this is already a display and acknowledgment that we took the right step with the development of our new fleet”, said Dr. Jens Ludmann, CEO of Bavaria. “The award ‘European Powerboat of the Year’ is a true prestige for any shipyard and we are very excited about the prize giving ceremony.”
The Bavaria Sport 34 is nominated in the category of motor boats up to 40 feet maximum amongst four other motorboats. Thanks to the well thought-through design, Bavaria concepted a 34-feet yacht that offers much more space for its actual size. Keen onlookers can take place next to the driver on an extra spare seat, whilst sun worshipers relax on the wellness sun lounger behind the windscreen.
The treasured award is also known as the ‘Oscar of the boating industry’ and is handed out each year at the boat show ‘boot’ in Düsseldorf, Germany. Bavaria could already take home two prizes in the past two years: the Bavaria Sport HT 30 won in 2009; in 2010 the Bavaria Deep Blue 46 was awarded Powerboat of the Year.
The jury is a team compiled of editors and testers, choosing the 20 most interesting models for four categories from all newly released boats. The team puts special emphasis on safety standards, quality, handling and driving characteristics, space and layout as well as the value to price ratio. The list of all nominated boats is a good indication of the trends and innovations on the market today.
