Urteil
The 2024 Bali Catspace is a spacious 40-foot catamaran that prioritizes livability and easy cruising over outright sailing performance. It is best suited to families or charter use, especially in the 3-cabin version; the 4-cabin setup exists, but the claimed 13-person capacity exceeds the licensed limit and typical sle

Nachteile
- −Not a performance-focused catamaran

- −Standard capacity is 7, not 13
- −LOA is closer to 40.3–40.5 ft than exactly 40.0 ft
The Bali Catspace is a 40-foot cruising catamaran built by Catana Group, and its standout feature is volume. Public specifications place the length at about 40.3–40.5 ft, with a beam around 21.5–21.6 ft and a shallow draft near 3.6 ft, which supports relaxed coastal cruising and access to thinner-water anchorages.[1][2][11][13]
On the water, it is set up more for easy handling than for aggressive sailing. The rig is a fractional sloop with a self-tacking jib, and published sail-area figures suggest a moderate sail plan for the class; that usually translates into straightforward short-handed sailing rather than top-end speed.[5][6][7][9]
Comfort and livability are where the Catspace makes its strongest case. The model is widely listed with 3 cabins in standard form and 3 to 4 cabins overall, along with generous tankage, multiple heads, and a large open interior layout that helps it feel bigger than many boats in the 40-foot range.[5][10][13][14]
Value is solid if the buyer wants a charter-oriented or family cruiser with strong space-to-length efficiency. The tradeoff is that the 4-cabin version and higher occupancy claims are best understood as charter configurations, while the licensed capacity in the referenced 2024 listing is 7 rather than 13.[5][14]
