Platinum Fleet

Bavaria 42

The Bavaria 42 bluewater cruiser has a solid reputation as a comfortable and capable family cruiser. A large cockpit provides comfortable day sailing for crews of up to 8. At the helm, excellent visibility aids in ease of handling, while a dodger helps protect crew from the elements.

Designed to feel open and airy, the interior layout with inline galley and midship bench is well-thought out for entertaining and elbow room. Her high freeboards provide ample headroom for taller sailors below deck. Three cabins and a comfortable settee in the salon provide comfort for 6 to 7 crew to sleep aboard overnight.

The meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.

The vessel was clean and in fine condition - very nice boat for training, well-equipped.
Steve Hood, Basic Coastal Cruising

I would definitely recommend Modern Sailing to anyone who is interested in learning to sail the right way.

I took ASA 101 with them recently. They have the best customer service I've ever seen! I mistyped my address when I signed up online so didn't receive the textbook. I called and the lady immediately sent me another copy! Everyone at the club is super friendly.

I've taken two classes at MSS&C and was very happy with the program. This is also a great club with lots of opportunities for camaraderie and practice on the water. The boats in the fleet are fantastic and kept in tip-top shape. I highly recommend for all sailors and would-be sailors!
