Adriatic Challenge Becomes the Official Dealer of Bavaria Sailing YachtsBavaria Yachtbau, the world’s second largest Yacht manufacturer, has chosen Adriatic Challenge as the  official dealer of Bavaria sailing yachts in Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro and Albania.  The recent take over of Bavaria by one of the world’s leading private equity investors Bain Capital GmbH, has lead to a new direction in the way the company will sell, and provide after sales service for their sailing yachts.

 



“First we will target the Croatian market, and later on, focus on the other countries in the region”, said Robert Lang, owner of Adriatic Challenge.  He began the company in 2005 by acquiring a fleet of 20 Bavaria 42 match boats, establishing the world’s top one design charter race fleet. 

 



Adriatic Challenge plans to stock new models at its base in Biograd, offering the opportunity for customers to try a vessel, and sail away as their new owner if satisfied.
