ATHENS - KOS 52.CAT1

Bali 5.2 — Greece The Bali 5.2 belongs to a generation of sailing catamarans that took the multihull's natural advantage — volume — and turned it into a genuine way of living aboard. The saloon, galley and cockpit sit on a single continuous level, with no threshold to step over and no interior-versus-exterior divide. In practice, that means breakfast served where the shade falls, conversations that carry from the helm to the settee, and a boat that never asks you to choose between being inside or out. Forward, Bali's signature solid foredeck replaces the usual trampolines with a proper lounging area. It is a small design decision with a large daily consequence: you can walk it barefoot, lie flat on it, or gather a dozen people there at anchor without anyone bracing against mesh. The flybridge adds a second social level, with seating and the kind of open sightlines that make an approach into a Cycladic bay worth watching from start to finish. Accommodation runs to eight cabins for twelve guests — unusual capacity for a catamaran of this format, and the reason this yacht suits larger family groups or two or three travelling parties sharing a week. Detailed bed configuration is available on request. She is built for real distance rather than day-hopping. Generous fuel and water tankage, substantial refrigeration and a well-resolved energy setup mean the itinerary can extend without a daily calculation about where to top up — a meaningful margin in the Aegean, where the best anchorages are rarely the best-serviced ones. The crew handles navigation, service and the shore-side logistics that quietly make a charter work: the timing of a passage against the meltemi, the taverna that will hold a table, the transfer that arrives when it should. For guests who sail, there is proper sailing to be had here; for those who don't, there is simply a wide, stable platform moving between islands. Both work equally well.
