OWNER’S COMMENTS:
VEGANA has been equipped with smart home features including smart plugs configured for monitoring, controlling, and scheduling the most important 220V devices such as the water heater, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and freezer as well as the iMac 27. These plugs also allow monitoring of energy usage in real-time and give summaries of the energy usage over time. These plugs and the devices they are connected to can also be voice-controlled via Amazon Alexa or Google Home. Thus, it is possible to schedule the water-heater to run every evening at 19.00 for an hour, thus making sure that there is hot water for an evening shower but not wasting energy heating it all day long. Similarly, it is also possible to turn off the fridge and freezer during the night to save some energy that way.
BUILDER’S COMMENTS:
All the superlatives that you are looking for. An unrivalled level of self-sufficiency in its class, the biggest sail area to weight ratio in its class, standard or flybridge helmsman area, standard or square top mainsail, and 2,3 or 4 cabins.
BALI 4.5 is built in the Catana shipyards in France, using the best quality materials. Using the closed-cell PVC foam sandwich construction and hull fabrication by infusion ensure rigidity, durability, and weight reduction. The design and the height of the nacelle allows a better passage through water and with that a higher level of comfort and safety. With the mast moved further aft there is more space for a larger self-tacking jib and with the self-tacking system, greater manoeuvrability. The sail area and weight ratio is the biggest in its class and that brings the performance that you would expect from a Catana catamaran.
Enjoy the best of what cruising has to offer. A unique freshness of the saloon with large, fully retractable windows, exceptional amount of daylight with a panoramic view from the saloon and an equipment level that will satisfy the most demanding sailors. Elegant design and interior décor arranged to provide you with a stay that is as pleasant as your own home.
