The Bali 4.6 is a modern catamaran designed by Xavier Faÿ and built by Catana (FRA), with production beginning in 2020. As a relatively new model with an unknown total build count, it represents the latest iteration of the brand's performance-oriented cruising catamarans.
- Best for:
- This vessel suits coastal cruisers and those seeking a balance of performance and comfort, evidenced by the high frequency of bimini installations and solar panel upgrades for extended stays.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 29983.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 3.24, the Bali 4.6 demonstrates solid offshore stability, supported by owner reports of watermaker installations for long-range cruising.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include other modern performance catamarans from the same era, such as the Lagoon 45 or Fountaine Pajot Elba 45, which share similar fractional sloop rigs and target the same bluewater cruising market.
