BavariB / one
BavariYachtbau has built and sold 120 sports boats of the type B / one since the beginning of 2012, and the unit class is growing. For the new 2014 season, those responsible for the project in Giebelstadt have again pre-buttoned the equipment standard of the racer drawn by Bruce Farr (test in YACHT 15/2012) and upgraded and improved many details.
The fittings on deck now come from the manufacturer Harken, the complete set of sheets, traps and trim lines is supplied by Liros. The blocks for deflecting the jib and gennaker have become larger, which reduces the sheet pull and makes maneuvering easier.
Work was also carried out on the rig. The forestay, now made of Dyform, can be heavily loaded and allows more tension on the rig, which is important for a boat without a backstay. In addition, all the halyard rollers in the mast are now ball-bearing - this makes setting the gennaker easier. And a new jib furler, now also with ball bearings, ensures that the foresail rolls away more quickly and with less effort.

The lifting keel is now guided in high-quality and more stable press-fit keel bearings. So the Finn should have no more play and sit tight. The suspension of the rudder head and the tiller have also been optimized. Two hanging straps for the helmsman are now also installed in the cockpit from the shipyard. This should make the B / one even sportier to sail.
In addition, the class regulations of the B / one now also allow the brand of sails to be freely selected. In addition to the previous Hyde standard sails, North Sails and Quantum Sails now also have corresponding packages in their range.
The price for a B / one is 24,990 euros (including VAT, without trailer and without sails).
