Eight guests, four queens. SERENITY 4.8 is a 2022 Bali Catamarans sailing catamaran at 49 feet, set up to sleep 8 guests in 4 queen cabins, each with a private en-suite. No arguing over who got the “good” cabin. They are all the good cabin.
Outdoor living, sorted. You get three distinct hangout zones: a top deck flybridge with 360-degree views, plus both forward and aft cockpit areas for lounging and dining. Pick your vibe. Then change your mind.
Easy water time. Scoop steps and a swim platform make quick dips and re-boarding less of a production, and the outdoor shower helps keep salt where it belongs. There is also a BBQ for low-effort lunches that still feel like a win.
Toys that get used. For active days, she carries paddleboards (2), a wakeboard, a towable tube, floating mats, snorkeling gear, underwater scooters, and an underwater camera and video setup, plus fishing gear. Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, and a salon TV/audio system cover the downtime hours.
