Ella is a well-maintained 2013 Bavaria Cruiser 36 for sale in Greece, offering a spacious cockpit, large bathing platform and plenty of room both above and below deck. She has teak decks, which are being upgraded over the winter of 2026, together with an extensive inventory including a bow thruster. With generous double cabins and a comfortable saloon, Ella is an excellent choice for family cruising in the Ionian and further afield.
Ella is equipped with solar panels and lithium batteries and, as part of our ongoing upgrade programme, has recently had a new sprayhood and bimini. The grey hull makes her distinctive, and the engine was replaced in 2025.
One of the few boats of this size with bow thruster makes mooring a dream.
Ella is offered for sale with a flexible handover arrangement designed to suit a buyer who would like the opportunity to become familiar with the yacht before taking her over. She can be purchased with a 50% deposit, she will then remain in the Sail Ionian charter fleet until the end of the 2027 season.
Under the 2027 option, the charter income will be used to cover full and comprehensive maintenance and winter storage, at no additional cost to the buyer. The new owner will also have up to six weeks' use of Ella during the season (3 low and 3 at other times), subject to availability and proportional to the time in the season the deposit is received. There is no additional income payable to the owner during this period; instead, the arrangement provides an excellent opportunity to enjoy the yacht, become familiar with her systems and sailing characteristics, and experience ownership before taking full possession at the end of the season.
We can of course at the buyers expense arrange boat yard storage as she finishes charter in 2027 plus winterisation services so the new owner has plenty of time to make arrangements for her future care.

The Bavaria Cruiser 36 has established itself as a popular Mediterranean cruising yacht, combining comfortable accommodation, manageable dimensions and straightforward sailing characteristics. For buyers searching for a used Bavaria Cruiser 36 for sale in Greece, a yacht previously operated and maintained by Sail Ionian offers the additional advantage of a known maintenance history and professional care throughout its time in our fleet.
Our Bavaria Cruiser 36 yachts benefit from a comprehensive maintenance programme throughout their working lives. During the charter season, each yacht undergoes our detailed 120-point inspection every week, covering the yacht's principal mechanical, electrical, safety and sailing systems. Regular use also means that engines, navigation equipment, plumbing, batteries and other onboard systems are continually operated and checked, allowing developing faults to be identified and rectified promptly.
The yacht is thoroughly washed with fresh water every week to minimise the damaging effects of salt on deck equipment, fittings and rigging. Engines and onboard equipment are serviced in accordance with manufacturers' recommendations, while safety equipment is regularly inspected by our staff and the yacht undergoes the statutory inspections required by the Greek authorities.
Operating in the Ionian Islands, the Bavaria Cruiser 36 spends much of its sailing life in the relatively moderate conditions for which this area of Greece is well known. Our yachts are normally afloat and operational for approximately seven months of the year, rather than remaining continuously exposed to the marine environment throughout the year.
At the end of each season the yacht undergoes a structured winterisation and maintenance programme. Sails are removed, washed, inspected and stored ashore, while the winter period provides the opportunity for servicing, preventative maintenance and larger improvement projects.
For anyone considering a Bavaria Cruiser 36 for sale in Greece, buying from Sail Ionian means purchasing from the company that has operated and maintained the yacht and knows its history. We can also continue to assist the new owner after purchase with maintenance, winter storage and yacht management from our base in Lefkas.
