Boat Overview 2020 Bali 4.8 3-Cabin Owner’s Version, well equipped for private cruising or charter, with an additional skipper’s cabin in the forepeak. A proven bluewater vessel, she completed a transatlantic crossing from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean in 2024 and has seen light charter use since.
She delivers Bali’s signature seamless indoor-outdoor living, creating a large, open-plan social space rarely matched in this size range. Designed for serious cruising, she offers strong off-grid capability with watermaker, Onan 11kw generator, 900w of Solar, and air conditioning throughout the cabins.

Owner’s Comments and Boat History The vessel was purchased in early 2024 in the Mediterranean and spent the summer cruising extensively through Turkey and Greece with a professional captain onboard.
In October 2024, the decision was made to reposition the boat to the Caribbean. The Atlantic crossing was completed without issue, with the vessel performing exceptionally well offshore.
In December 2024, the owner joined the vessel in Margarita Island, Venezuela, and cruised through Venezuela, including Los Roques and Tortuga, before continuing to Aruba and then on to Miami.
From January through March 2025, the vessel was based in Fort Lauderdale, where a number of upgrades and maintenance works were carried out.
Following this, the boat cruised through the Bahamas before continuing on to the Dominican Republic.
The vessel was then relocated to the British Virgin Islands, where her registration was changed from San Marino to BVI and lightly chartered.
The boat has proven to be a fantastic cruising platform, both in the Mediterranean and on the Atlantic crossing, where she performed exceptionally well and handled offshore conditions with ease.
She has been enjoyed extensively across a wide cruising range, from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean, including time spent exploring the Bahamas and Caribbean islands with friends and family onboard.
The layout and onboard comfort make her particularly well-suited for extended trips and hosting guests, including longer stays and special occasions.
