Meet First Star

She began her life in British Columbia when her current owners purchased her brand new from the local dealership.  Ideally equipped for cruising the Pacific Northwest, this bright and spacious 2007 Bavaria 37 Cruiser served her owners well on many local adventures, as well as a comfortable period of time as a liveaboard in Sidney.

The 37 Cruiser is a very comfortable, safe, and easy to operate sailboat that hits the sweet spot for size and handling for year-round exploration of the Gulf and San Juan Islands, Desolation Sound and beyond.  Nicely upgraded throughout, First Star is ready to step aboard and start your next cruising adventures!
