BROKER’S REMARKS
Halekai is a well-prepared Bavaria 36 that has clearly been set up by owners who intended to cruise extensively. The popular three cabin layout provides flexible accommodation for family and friends, while one aft cabin is currently arranged as valuable storage and freezer space for extended cruising. Significant investment has been made in recent years, including standing rigging, saildrive works, seacocks, power generation systems and upgraded interior furnishings. The generous solar capacity, substantial lithium battery bank and Hydrovane self-steering system make her particularly attractive for owners seeking a comfortable, capable yacht that is ready for island hopping with minimal preparation.
