2022 BALI 4.2 For Sale

Cat Tales | Bali 4.2 | 4-Cabin, 4-Head Layout

The Bali 4.2 has established itself as one of the most thoughtfully designed bluewater catamarans in its class, earning a strong following among cruising couples, families, and charter operators alike.

She carries a full complement of cruising and comfort equipment, including reverse-cycle air conditioning throughout, a watermaker, extended fuel and water capacity, and a complete Raymarine electronics suite.
