German engineering is at it again, Bavaria Yachts is all new and looking good. Bavaria Yachts are being built (and have always been built, since 1978) just minutes away from my hometown Wurzburg, Germany in a small township called Giebelstadt.

I love the enclosed helm with the large windows. A truly gorgeous yacht!
Check out the level of quality and professionalism in this compressed yacht building video of the aluminum J Class, “Atlantis”. What an intense project.
