Bauer 10 - Gaff Rig
Description
The Bauer 10 is a versatile, high-quality fiberglass daysailer and yacht tender designed by Christof Bauer and built by Bauteck Marine Corporation since 1983, with approximately 200–250 units produced as of 2025. Featuring a fractional sloop rig with reefable main, retractable centerboard, beaching rudder, and high freeboard, it’s optimized for stability, ease of handling, and multi-purpose use (sailing, rowing, motoring). Its lightweight, hand-laid fiberglass construction with epoxy moisture barriers and teak trim ensures durability and low maintenance, making it ideal for family day sailing, junior training, or serving as a tender for larger yachts.

Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them.
