Bali catamarans presented the Bali 4.0 at the Paris Boat Show 2015. This catamaran showed a desire to increase the shipyard’s power.
The Catana shipyard announced the creation of the BALI brand in 2014. After the release of the Bali 4.3 and 4.5 catamarans, the Bali 4.0 quickly followed to complete the range.
The Bali 4.0, a catamaran that multiplies spaces
BALI 4.0 is characterized by a space, common to the cockpit/saloon, completely flush Completely open-plan and accessible via a huge retractable glass door on electric struts, the forward cockpit of the Bali 4.0 allows you to eat your meals as well as sunbathe with a huge sunbathing area instead of the traditional trampolineAnother living space is located on the roof, with another sun lounger. This makes this catamaran equally pleasant inside and out.

The BALI 4.0, like its predecessors the BALI 4.5 Open Space and the BALI 4.3 Loft, of extraordinary natural lightThe large retractable windows bring unparalleled freshness to the saloon as well as a panoramic view. The numerous openings in the floats ensure exceptional natural ventilation.

A catamaran for charter and long voyages
Bali 4.0 also aims to capitalize on the long-distance travel market. and its autonomy, thanks to tanks that can hold up to 800 liters of water and 400 liters of diesel. Its oversized battery bank is designed for offshore sailing and onboard living. The entire system is controlled by a multiplexed touchscreen with an integrated tutorial.. This multihull is therefore a traveling catamaran pleasant.
Regarding the seaworthiness and performance of this catamaran, these are, of course, not yet known. But if the build quality and attention to design are the same as for the Catanas, the Bali 4.0 should be promising.
