I'm the new owner of a 2004 Bavaria 32 Cruiser and am looking for replacement parts here in the U.S.  (Massachusetts).  Can anyone give me a good source for replacement parts here in the U.S. ?

Good luck , I have a 2007 30 cruiser. I have multiple problems finding parts that FIT . They do not have a Bavaria location anymore in US  just closed it down. Bavaria also removes all reference on the part so you don't  know who made it. This forum is great as they can tell you what part you  need and what European store carries and they will ship it to you . What part do you need ?

I'm looking for transom shower parts.  I found some at Clipper Marine in Southhampton UK  www.clippermarine.co.uk.  I was impressed they had the parts I need, but will wait to hear back from Bavaria Yachtbau and a few North American dealers I found on-line.  I'll post again if I find anything worth sharing.  I would imagine there are many of us facing same problem.

I also live in Mass , so if you get into trouble let me know . Just beware everything on the boat is mainly metric parts in US are not , from experience they just don't fit right.

Thank you both for your replies - very helpful.  I looked at the SVB site and turns out they have the part I was looking for at same price offered by Clipper Marine - which was great to see.  I also found a dealer by the name of Performance Yacht Sales in Florida who said they can order parts from Bavaria Yachtbau and then send them on to me.  Hope to speak with them next week.  Good to hear from another MA-based Bavaria owner and look forward to staying in touch.

Check out http://www.yachtsaleswest.com/ in Vancouver B.C.,  they're very helpful and answer quickly via email.  Located just across the 'maple curtain', so not too far from the U.S.of A.  With the glory of NAFTA you probably won't pay duty on imports, just a bit more in shipping.
