Why Choose the Bali 5.2 for Your Yacht Charter?

Designed for carefree chartering and spacious onboard living, the Bali 5.2 is a standout in its class. Whether you are bareboating oradding a skipper and crew, this catamaran offers exceptional comfort and functionality for sailors of all experience levels.

Key Features

  • Expansive living space: With the signature Bali “open space” concept, the Bali 5.2 features a solid foredeck lounge, flybridge, and vast saloon that seamlessly connects to the aft cockpit with an electric tilting door. This is indoor-outdoor living at its best.
  • Private accommodation: Up to six double cabins, all with ensuite bathrooms, allow everyone onboard to enjoy their own space. Crew accommodation when needed is provided in separate bow cabins.
  • Modern galley and amenities: Fully equipped kitchen with full-sized fridge, freezer, and water maker. Air conditioning, solar panels, and an integrated genset ensure self-sufficiency and comfort throughout your charter.
  • Sailing performance: While prioritising comfort, the Bali 5.2 remains a capable cruising catamaran with a performance profile that makes open-water passages efficient and enjoyable.

Ideal for Skippered or Crewed Charters

The Bali 5.2 is highly adaptable: perfect for skippered charters where you retain control of your itinerary, or 'bareboat with skipper/crew' that allows you to fully relax.

Even experienced sailors often opt for crew on this size of vessel, both for the added ease and the local knowledge they bring. This is something our team at Sail Connections always helps match carefully to your trip.
