About the BALI 5.4
Concept: Oliver Poncin Displacement above is light. Max displacement: 29,800 kg / 65,698 lbs. Optional 2x 80hp engines
The Bali 5.4 is a modern catamaran designed by Xavier Faÿ and Lasta Design Studio, built by Catana (FRA) starting in 2019. While the exact hull count is unspecified, this model represents a significant entry in the large-cabin cruiser market, combining high comfort ratios with substantial displacement.
- Best for:
- This vessel is ideal for coastal and offshore cruisers seeking spacious living quarters and high-speed performance, as evidenced by the high frequency of solar panel (217) and watermaker (25) installations for extended autonomy.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 45856.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 3.21, the Bali 5.4 offers robust offshore stability, supported by owner reports of extensive bluewater upgrades such as bow thrusters and wind generators.
- Comparables:
- Comparable to other large-production catamarans like the Lagoon 42 or Fountaine Pajot Astrea, the Bali 5.4 competes on interior volume and modern amenities, though it distinguishes itself with a fractional sloop rig and specific builder heritage.
