The Bali CATSPACE is a 12.1-meter fractional sloop catamaran, designed by Lasta Design Studio and built by Chantier Catana since 2019. It features a twin keel hull, a 6.6-meter beam, and a 1.1-meter draft, displacing 9200 kg. Olivier Poncin conceived the CATSPACE with a signature tilting garage door that integrates the salon and aft cockpit into a single open-plan living area, increasing usable deck space by 15 to 20 percent.1:02 This design replaces traditional trampolines with a solid forward cockpit and sunbathing area, which reduces hull torsion and minimizes pitching in heavy seas.2:43 The CATSPACE is available in three- or four-cabin configurations, with the owner's suite offering a walk-in closet and a spacious head.1:35 Aboard SVN solovelanet, the forward cabin in the owner's hull uses a transverse bed to maximize floor space.1:33 The flybridge helm station includes an aft sunpad.1:35 The CATSPACE is designed for long-term cruising, targeting private owners seeking high-volume living spaces and comfort.3:54
