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. Her wide-open layout, distinctive flybridge, and fully enclosed or open cockpit give her a livability that few comparable boats can match, whether you are anchored in a quiet cove or crossing an ocean passage.
Cat Tales is a well-maintained example of the model currently operating in an active charter program with an existing booking base, offering a ready path to offset ownership costs from day one. 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. For a buyer seeking a capable bluewater cruiser that can also generate income, this boat presents a compelling turnkey opportunity.
Listing Highlights
Propulsion and Handling
Cat Tales is powered by twin Yanmar 4JH45 45 HP diesel engines, a reliable and widely supported choice for offshore passage-making. An extra fuel tank of 106 US gal / 400 L brings total fuel capacity to 212 US gal / 800 L, providing meaningful range for extended passages or remote cruising. An electric windlass with remote control handles ground tackle. Propeller details are available upon request.
Electronics and Navigation
The Raymarine electronics package covers the key bases for coastal and offshore sailing. An Axiom 7" multifunction display is mounted at the flybridge helm, paired with an autopilot controller. A wired VHF handset is installed at the nav station, with a second wireless handset at the helm for added convenience. A Fusion stereo system with Bluetooth provides audio in the salon and on the foredeck.
Electrical and Comfort Systems
Galley, Salon, and Accommodations
The salon is bright and open-plan, with large hull windows and lateral sliding windows that bring in natural light and views to the water. The convertible salon table includes a factory filler cushion, and factory upholstery in beige grey gives the space a clean, neutral finish.
The galley is well equipped with a double-basin sink, a three-burner gas stovetop, and a gas oven with grill (Eno). A large refrigerator and freezer unit of 89 US gal / 336 L with chilled water keeps provisions in good order on long passages.
All four cabins are private en-suite with separate shower stalls and electric marine heads with fresh water. Blackout pleated blinds in each cabin make sleeping aboard comfortable in any anchorage. A crew berth in the starboard bow compartment and a crew head in the port bow compartment round out the interior arrangements.
Deck and Cockpit
The aft cockpit, transom, and forward cockpit are finished in teak, with cushions fitted at the aft cockpit, forward cockpit, and flybridge. A pull-down garage door between the cockpit and salon allows the space to be fully enclosed or opened up depending on conditions, a signature feature of the Bali design.
The swim platform accommodates a standard charter dinghy on the davits.
