Yacht Description
New-build Bali 54. Built in 2024 by Bali Catamarans, this 54-foot cat is set up for easy, modern charter living, sleeping up to 9 guests across 5 cabins.
Serious water access. The hydraulic 8’x10’ teak swim platform changes the rhythm of the day: cleaner boarding, faster dips, and a better launch point for toys. Simple. Effective.
Toys for all ages. You have 3 stand-up paddleboards, a Subwing, a sea scooter, a towable tube, plus floats and noodles, with snorkel gear for 10 and fishing gear when “just one cast” turns into an hour.
Comfort, powered up. Full air conditioning, a generator and inverter, and a water maker keep things running smoothly, while the bimini and deck shower cover the basics between swims. Two BBQs (one charcoal, one gas) handle the “what’s for lunch” question without drama.
Broker Review
Onboard visit
CHILLIN' HUT's standout feature is her garage-style door that fully opens the main saloon — eat outside in the fresh air, or close up and enjoy the air conditioning. Social spaces are genuinely livable, with a big foredeck and flybridge to spread out on.

Captain's Tour of Chillin Hut
The captain of Chillin Hut highlights the yacht's spacious design, ideal for guest interaction and comfort, and shares insights into sailing the British Virgin Islands.
I love the flybridge because it's so big and spacious, and I can have all the guests up there with me while sailing. I love sailing, and I love guests to be with me while sailing so I can teach them.

The galley is pretty open space; it's good for guest interaction. Every time I've worked on a Bali 54, all the guests have been pretty happy and comfortable.

The best thing about BVI is all the secret spots that you can find for snorkeling and water sports, like the sea animal, the nature. I find it lovely around here.

Transcript — Captain's Tour of Chillin Hut
I feel like Bali 54s are one of the best yachts for charter because you can have so much open space. And for me especially, I love the flybridge because it's so big and spacious, and I can have all the guests up there with me while sailing. And I love sailing, and I love guests to be with me while sailing so I can teach them, and they can learn a little bit more about it. It's not just a boat, it's also a sailing boat.
I love that the galley is pretty open space; it's good for guest interaction. Every time I've worked on a Bali 54, all the guests have been pretty happy and comfortable. It's very spacious. We have a garage door that lifts fully up, so it's indoor/outdoor, and obviously then you can have the air con on and still enjoy the whole space. I do feel like they maximize guest comfort when making them. But yeah, that's why I like it.
The best thing about BVI is, I would say, all the secret spots that you can find for snorkeling and water sports, like the sea animals, the nature. I don't know, I find it lovely around here, like all the Caribbean. I mean, of course, the BVI, we're based in the BVI, but like, Caribbean is unique, and what you find here is unique, and there's no many places in the world that you can find what you see in here.
>> I saw the yachts. I talked to the crew. I ate food on many of the boats. I'm the right man for the job. Please give me a call.
