CATANA GROUP launches its 14th BALI CATAMARAN model, the BALI 5.8, for the brand’s 10th anniversary!
On Bali Catamaran’s 10th anniversary, the factory launched their 14th model, the brand-new flagship, Bali 5.8. This model, designed by the late Olivier Poncin, is the latest sailing catamaran in the very successful Bali range and promises to be the most luxurious of the range. At a very attractive base price of 1,460,000 Euros, it blows the competition out of the water!
The interior design and décor were spearheaded by the famed Piaton Bercault Design Co. The layout varies from three cabin (with owner’s hull) to 6 cabins, all offering a walk around bed with fantastic views of the ocean and all layouts have separate showers and toilets, which is unique in this market!
Catamaran Guru Purchase the First Hull in USA
We are so excited about this new flagship Bali model that we decided to buy one for ourselves! We will likely use her in one of our crewed yacht charter programs. We decided on a 4-cabin owners’ version with a twin bed configuration mid-cabin. The owner’s cabin is palatial with a huge bathroom, seperate shower stall and toilet. The really big surprise is the huge skipper’s cabin! Particular attention has been paid to accommodating the crew, who are crucial to the smooth running of the boat. A large double CAPTAIN’S cabin is available for the master version, so that both owners and crew can enjoy their own private spaces. Happy crew, happy boat! LOL The Bali 5.8 retains all the unique features of the previous models like the open plan living spaces, the solid foredeck with dining and lounging areas and the comfortable top deck. We expect this boat to perform really well in this category of cruising catamarans because the power to weight ratio is really good. Read here about how the Bali is constructed. In this article we discussed the following:
- Bridgedeck clearance
- Structural Integrity & construction,
- Bulkheads
- Solid Foredeck
- Rudder position
- Foredeck scupper draining system
