The three most popular models from Balance Catamarans will be exhibited together for the first time at the upcoming Annapolis Boat Show. Models 442, 482 and 526 will be on display side by side. The perfect opportunity to admire these marvels will be October 10-14 at the Annapolis Boat Show in Maryland, North America’s largest boat show.
“This is the first time we’ve presented our three models at Annapolis. – explains Phillip Bermanfounder of Balance Catamarans – We’ve just attended a very successful show in Cannes, France, where we were able to show and sea-test our Balance 442 and Balance 526 – a first for us in Europe – and so we wanted to follow this event with an even more comprehensive range here.”
In particular, the Balance 442with its carbon-reinforced foam hulls and powerful sail plan, is a very fast and agile boat. Upwind, she sails between 6 and 8.5 knots, but can reach up to 13 knots under sail, mastering even big waves like a surfboard, thanks to Balance Catamarans’ excellent rudders. The Balance 482with its carbon-reinforced foam hulls and equally powerful sail plan, can sail upwind at 7 to 10 knots. But if you really want to push hard, the boat’s current record is 28 knots”, Berman proudly points out. The pinnacle of performance, however, is achieved with the Balance 526built as a high-performance regatta boat, yet incredibly easy to use. This model, unsurprisingly, won the Cape2Rio in 2023.
