Supergirl is a fantastic Balance 442 available on the pre-owned market! Supergirl is US Import and Tariff paid!
This is your opportunity to purchase a gorgeous example of the award-winning Balance 442 catamaran. Supergirl is fully equipped and ready to go sailing today. She was originally launched in Cape Town, South Africa in late 2022 and is hull #4 of this coveted high-performance brand. Supergirl has recently returned to the US after an exciting season of cruising the Caribbean and has just received her annual regular off-season maintenance.
The original design premise for the Balance 442 was to create a catamaran that had wonderful sailing characteristics with luxurious and comfortable accommodations but was also set up to be easily operated by a retired couple. Therefore, these performance cruising vessels are equipped with powerful sail plans and daggerboards which allow them to sail circles around the competition while still being easily managed for shorthanded operation. As the name suggests, it is the perfect balance of sporty sailing characteristics and liveaboard comfort.
Balance Catamarans are well known for their stunning designs, exceptional build quality, and gorgeous fit and finish. They feature industry leading technology such as their signature VersaHelm steering system, Integrel charging technology, carbon fiber reinforced daggerboards, Ullman ASDL tri-radial laminate sails, state-of-the-art electronics suites, etc. The build process for these fantastic vessels incorporates Balance's "Carbon Cross" design and construction techniques which utilizes E-glass fiberglass with significant Carbon Fiber reinforcement in the high load areas of the hulls and decks. Every Balance 442 is hand laminated and vacuum bagged with vinylester outer skin resin over closed cell foam cores. The end result is a lightweight, stiff, and robust vessel built for world voyaging.
Supergirl has a 3-cabin Owner's Version layout that is tastefully appointed with several custom touches, a stunning yellow exterior hull color, and an extensive list of factory options. She sports all the most modern equipment available for a liveaboard voyager. Several of her equipment highlights include:
- 48V Victron Lithium House Battery Bank
- Integrel Charging System on both engines - 2 x 9kW Capacity
