The 153’ (46.6m) Cantieri di Pisa BALISTA is now asking $13,950,000 after a $2,450,000 price reduction. The luxury motor yacht is listed for sale with Kevin Merrigan and Kristen Klein.
Having undergone an extensive refit in 2019, a full paint job in 2022 and the completion of her 10-year ABS survey in 2023, BALISTA boasts opulent amenities and expansive outdoor living space, making her the quintessential turnkey yacht for those seeking the ultimate in on-water living.
BALISTA’s interior, initially crafted by the acclaimed Mark Berryman, received a makeover courtesy of Curtis House, in collaboration with Louis Anthony and Associates. This space is elegant and timeless, featuring exquisite Italian woodwork, marble accents and sumptuous furnishings with tasteful leather detailing. The main salon, with its generous seating, a well-appointed bar and a formal dining area for 12 guests, serves as the perfect venue for hosting and entertaining.
The luxury yacht’s skylounge is another exceptional living and leisure area. Notably, this area features retractable balconies on both the port and starboard sides, creating a seamless transition between indoors and the open sea. Asian-inspired sliding doors further blur the boundary between the yacht’s interior and the view. With these doors closed, the skylounge transforms into a private sanctuary.
Accommodating up to 14 guests, BALISTA boasts seven well-appointed staterooms. The master stateroom, ideally situated on the main deck, features expansive windows that invite in natural light, a king-size bed, a private office and his-and-her en-suite baths, complete with a soaking tub on one side and a spacious shower on the other. The VIP stateroom offers flexibility, with the option to function as a full-beam suite with a lounge or be divided into two separate staterooms, making it ideal for families or groups. Additionally, two double-bed staterooms and two twin-bed staterooms provide further accommodations.
BALISTA’s three expansive decks offer a wide array of amenities for the pleasure of owners and guests. The sundeck, divided into three sections, serves as the heart of the yacht’s alfresco lifestyle and includes sun loungers at the aft, a central Jacuzzi and U-shaped seating beneath large umbrellas with a bar forward. Alfresco dining and additional lounging options can be found on the yacht’s skylounge.
BALISTA is equipped with state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment and cutting-edge electronics. Powered by twin MTU 16V4000M93L engines with low hours, she achieves a maximum speed of 26 knots, cruises comfortably at 22 knots and offers extended range at 10 knots. BALISTA stands as the pinnacle of luxury, ready to deliver an unparalleled yachting experience.
