Bali Catamarans is unveiling its new flagship: A prestige catamaran that brings the style of private villas, grand hotels and superyachts to the sea.
With the BALI 7.0, BALI CATAMARANS has reached a decisive milestone in its history. More than just a new model, this giant of the seas opens a new chapter for the brand: one that fully embraces luxury and a perfect synthesis of space, service, performance and ease of use.
Further expressing “The New Art of Living” advocated by the brand.
The quintessence of the BALI concept
The BALI signature lies in the openness of its spaces, designed to liberate life on board. The brand has made a profound impression on the market with its up-and-over door, now a hallmark of its identity, creating a direct continuity between the saloon and the aft cockpit.
With the BALI 7.0, this philosophy of openness takes another step forward: the open-plan layout now extends to the front of the boat.
The saloon opens directly onto the forward lounge via a full-length panoramic opening, transforming this space into a natural extension of the saloon. The foredeck thus becomes an integral part of the living space.
The cockpits and saloon are now arranged in a fluid, seamless flow, like a loft apartment opening out over the sea.
Bali’s entry into the world of superyachts
The BALI 7.0 confirms a new aesthetic and architectural signature. Its silhouette is distinguished by a forward-set coachroof that elongates the lines, a tinted superstructure with a resolutely contemporary identity, and spacious areas opening out onto the sea.
Developed by Xavier Faÿ in collaboration with Briand Yacht Design and Berco Design + Piaton, the naval architecture of the BALI 7.0 reflects the increase in size whilst preserving the ease of sailing and the consistency of the marine qualities so characteristic of a BALI catamaran.
A yacht designed for the owner and for service
The BALI 7.0 is firmly positioned as an owner’s yacht, intended for those seeking to enjoy a level of comfort and service comparable to that found aboard larger craft.
One of the hulls can be entirely dedicated to the owner and transforms into a veritable private suite inspired by luxury hotels, comprising a panoramic sleeping area, a private lounge, a closet, a bathroom and sliding doors allowing for total privacy as desired.
The abundance of light and the separation of the different spaces create the rare experience of a private residence on board.
The VIP guest cabins also offer generous space and refined finishes in a relaxing atmosphere.
A design conceived for practical use
Aboard the BALI 7.0, refinement is not limited to materials or finishes but is also reflected in layout choices that optimise the on-board experience.
The galley is a chef’s kitchen integrated into the port hull, freeing up a vast bar and reception area in the saloon while allowing for elaborate culinary preparation in complete discretion.
A dumbwaiter connects the different levels of the boat, allowing for service between the galley, the saloon and the rooftop.
Paying special attention to the crew
The BALI 7.0’s move upmarket is accompanied by an optimised layout of the crew quarters. The yacht can comfortably accommodate 6 to 8 guests, with crew members having dedicated cabins and a separate messroom, ensuring smooth and discreet service on board.
Performance and comfort for blue water cruising
The BALI 7.0 combines quality of life on board with genuine sailing capability. An upwind sail area of 280 m² (main and genoa) ensures power and efficiency under sail, with a genuine aptitude for offshore sailing.
The catamaran thereby blends two complementary legacies: BALI’s signature user-friendly design and the offshore sailing heritage of CATANA’s expertise.
The ergonomics of the helm station and the automation of sailing manoeuvres have been designed to offer intuitive handling and allow a short-handed crew to fully exploit the yacht’s potential.
Range and autonomy suited to blue water cruising
The BALI 7.0 also meets the range requirements specific to long-distance sailing:
- up to 2,000 litres of fuel
- up to 1,520 litres of fresh water
- high-capacity lithium batteries and solar panels
- quiet air conditioning systems able to operate without a generator in certain configurations
This energy architecture prioritises silent operation, range and also freedom at anchor.

In the words of Boris Compagnon
“With the BALI 7.0, we sought to offer all of CATANAGROUP’s expertise to the highest level: CATANA’s heritage of offshore performance, BALI’s intelligent design and pioneering spirit, whilst taking a significant step forward in the expression of luxury. This boat opens up access to an experience previously reserved for far more exclusive vessels, yet remains faithful to BALI’s core identity.”
