Balance Catamarans is pleased to announce the new Balance 442.

Built under license by Balance Catamarans Cape Town, under the ownership of second-generation boat builder Mark Delany, the new 442 is a stunning blue water performance voyager fresh from the drawing board of esteemed catamaran designers Phillip Berman and Anton Du Toit.

The new Balance 442 will be a slightly scaled down version of the Award-winning Balance 526 and 482 catamaran.

While she will have less waterline length, the Balance 442 will maintain all the same characteristics that made the Balance 526 so popular and innovative, included the highly coveted Versa-Helm.
