► Full test in Multihulls World N°205. ► McConaghy stole the show at Cannes with this first MC68 in a Flybridge version. Designed for making long passages in complete comfort with a crew, this model is capable of reaching double-digit averages, as evidenced by the numerous carbon elements incorporated into the construction and the deep daggerboards. ► At Port Canto, the MC68 set our mouths watering with its ultra-modern coachroof and its lines kept tight thanks to a continuous chine. You can see that the step in the deck - a McConaghy hallmark - is there, but it’s much more discreet than on the “smaller” models. Also noteworthy: the double front doors, access to the nacelle from the side-deck, and the twin helm stations set as far aft as possible on the flybridge. The luxurious interior of the MC68 that we tested offers three guest cabins and one crew cabin as standard, with a four or even five double cabin layout also available. ► Technical specifications: Builder: McConaghy Architects: Ker Yacht Design Length: 67’11” (20.7 m) Beam: 30’2” (9.2 m) Draft: 4’7”/12’4” (1.4/3.75 m) Upwind sail area: 2,766 sq ft (257 m²) Water: 264 US gal (1,000 l) Fuel: 422 US gal (1,600 l) Engines: 2 x 80 HP ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!

► Tested in MW147: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/bali-40-an-innovative-and-easy-going-40-footer ► Second-hand test in MW175: https://www.multihulls-world.com/essais/catamaran/bali-40-41-2 ► Among the 40 multihulls on display at the “Occasions du Multicoque et de Refit” second-hand show, we’ve selected eight models to present to you on video. From the least expensive to the most expensive, we invite you to discover the world of used multihulls! Today we’re discovering a Bali 4.0, the third model from the Catana Group brand. ► Launched back in 2015, the 4.0 remained for a long time the smallest boat in the Bali range... yet this catamaran proves to be a real “boundary-pusher”: the saloon is set aft thanks to the up-and-over door, opening up the 8-person dining area to the outside, while the opening windows (front and side) give you the impression you’re on a much larger multihull. With a forward cockpit, aft platform, and flybridge, comfort is optimal - even though the example presented here inevitably shows a bit of wear on the upholstery after 10 years of use. However, this model is equipped with two 40 HP Nanni engines, rather than the standard 20 HP units, and is very well equipped. Asking price: €274,167 ex-tax ► Technical specifications: Builder: Bali Catamarans Architect: Xavier Faÿ Material: foam/glass/polyester sandwich (infusion) Length: 40’6” (12.35 m) Beam: 22’1” (6.72 m) Draft: 3’8” (1.12 m) Displacement: 19,620 lbs (8.9 t) Upwind sail area: 872 sq ft (81 m²) Mainsail: 516 or 538 sq ft in square-topped version (48 m² or 50 m²) Self-tacking solent: 355 sq ft (33 m²) Engines: 2 x 40 HP Fresh water: 211 US gal (800 l) Fuel: 105 US gal (400 l) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!

► This new catamaran, which made its world debut at Annapolis – though this was actually hull #3 - is astonishing in more ways than one. Firstly, the construction, carried out in Thailand, uses a double sandwich structure (Big Mac-style) comprising two layers of closed-cell foam and three fiberglass skins - one on the outside, one in the middle and one on the inside. The resulting thickness (7 cm/2¾ inches!) means that no bulkheads are required, allowing the catamaran to be fitted out as desired. This multihull also features twin 55-kW electric motors, an impressive 210-kWh battery bank and supports 4,900 Wp of solar panels - enough to ensure more than 100 nautical miles in electric mode and more than 1,800 miles in hybrid mode at a cruising speed of 6 knots. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Builder: Group Island Spirit Length: 51’9” (15.77 m) Beam: 26’10” (8.19 m) Draft: 5’1” (1.54 m) Displacement: 36,375 lbs (16.5 t) Sail area: 1,905 sq ft (177 m²) Fuel: 264 US gal (1,000 l) Water: 264 US gal (1,000 l) Cabins: 3 to 6 Price: $1,500,000 ex-tax, ready to sail (2025) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!
