Merry-Time Description and Charter Summary Information
MERRY-TIME is a 2022 48’ Bali 4.8 sailing catamaran built for easy, open-air living in the Virgin Islands. Sleeps up to 8 in 4 Queen cabins, each with a private ensuite and individual A/C control. Highlights include Bali’s signature indoor-outdoor flow (salon opening wide to the aft cockpit), a spacious flybridge with 360° views, a forward cockpit lounge, and an aft cockpit set up for relaxed dining and sunset cocktails. Large windows keep the interior bright and breezy, while multiple deck zones make it simple to gather—or slip away with a book. Water toys onboard add endless fun on the water. Uncomplicated, comfortable, and island-ready—MERRY-TIME delivers.

From the Logbook
Our take: Merry-Time
Merry-Time is a strong Bali 48 option for groups looking for a comfortable and social layout without moving into a much higher price range. The signature Bali garage door opens the salon directly into the cockpit, creating one large indoor-outdoor living space that makes the yacht feel open, practical, and easy to enjoy as a group.
Her four queen cabin layout works well for eight guests, and the outdoor areas give everyone different spaces to relax throughout the day. The flybridge, front deck, and open main living area make her especially appealing for a relaxed BVI charter, while her water toy selection, including sea scooters, wakeboard, tubes, and paddleboards, adds a nice active side to the experience.

March 2026
The Merry-Time vessel itself was incredible and our numerous off-boat excursions were amazing but the overall experience was defined mostly by the hospitality, professionalism, fun and friendships with Malcolm & Pia. This will be a lifelong memory (and/or maybe the first of many) for our entire family.
