Explore why Couples Choose Bali 4.6 to Cruise the World
More of our boat owners are choosing Bali Catamarans as their world cruising catamaran and many of them chose the Bali 4.6 as their preferred model size. Below we have two such couples currently sailing the world on their own Bali 4.6’s. The Bernoski’s on Sojourner and Ray on Joie de Vivre shared with us their stories and adventures.
A Bali 4.6 catamaran is often considered ideal for a cruising couple for several reasons:
Space and Comfort: It offers incredible living space, providing comfortable living onboard. The solid foredeck is a controversial talking point but once you have experienced this extra space, it is hard to go back to nets. The flybridge is huge and very comfortable with fantastic cockpit seating.
Manageability: This size catamaran is very manageable for two people. The sails can easily be handled from the flybridge, the anchor is easily deployed and maneuvering in tight spots can be done with two people with ease.
Performance: Catamarans of this size often offer good performance under sail and power, along with stability, making them more comfortable in a variety of sea conditions. One can easily do 180 to 200 nautical miles per day on long passages.
Maintenance: The Bali is generally a simple boat to maintain and clean. Like any other cruising catamaran, it involves routine checks and upkeep, but Bali has designed its boats with ease of maintenance in mind.
Overall, the Bali 4.6 catamaran strikes a good balance between comfort, performance, and manageability, making it a popular choice for cruising couples looking to explore the world together. Check out the Bernoski’s blog below for their insights and we interviewed Ray Ferguson after his Atlantic passage during the 2024 ARC Rally. His take on the boat is really valuable.

Bali 4.6 Catamaran Model & Specifications
Bali 4.6 design incorporates the wow factor we expect from Bali including the front door and saloon open to the cockpit through sliding glass doors or the brand’s tilting door.
The catamaran’s layout offers a unique walkaround traffic path on its deck and a beautiful flybridge. Setting the Bali 4.6 apart from the rest of the range, are subtle but powerful changes in design such as softening of her lines with completely integrated hull windows and sleeker bows.
Her accommodating 5 cabin/4 bath layout option is one-of-a-kind in its class but the owners version provides a really nice owners cabin.
