InBalance is hull #4 of the Balance 482, commissioned by the founder of Balance Catamarans as his personal boat and specified with nearly every factory option. She is equipped with the full Essential Performance Voyager package: retractable daggerboards, six 48-volt electric winches, and 800 amp hours of 24-volt lithium behind a dual Integrel charging system, plus an updated five-sail arsenal of Ullman sails:
- Fully-battened square-top ADSL tri-radial laminate mainsail with a Sunbrella stack pack, new in late 2025.
- ADSL tri-radial laminate furling jib with UV cover on leech and foot.
- 90m Ullman screecher on a Facnor FX4500 furler with the electric furler upgrade,
- 135m Code D asymmetric furling spinnaker new in 2025
- 180m Nylite asymmetric spinnaker
Control lines run aft to Harken 48-volt electric winches: three at the helm, two on the aft coaming, one at the mast base. Reefing, jib and main handling are all worked from the upper helm without leaving the wheel.
InBalance is equipped with the iconic Versahelm adjustable helm position. The upper position offers visibility of course track and sail shape at the same time, with push-button control for the electric winches easily operated by foot switches. The lower position drops into the cockpit alongside the living space, with sightlines through the tempered glass salon windows and shelter from weather when you are standing watch offshore. Both stations have chart plotter, multifunction display and autopilot control.
InBalance carries no diesel generator, which is a tremendous savings for weight and diesel consumption. Charging of the 800Ah of 24-volt lithium bank (roughly 19 kWh) is provided by 1,600 watts of SunPower solar on individual Victron MPPT regulators and a dual Integrel system rated at 18kW, upgraded to Gen3 brackets in 2026. This capacity allows uninterrupted power supply for the four zones of 48-volt variable-speed Frigomar air conditioning, the Spectra Cape Horn Extreme watermaker at 54 litres per hour, induction cooktop, the combination microwave/oven fitted new in 2025, both Vitrifrigo drawer units, fridge and freezer, replaced in 2024.
She is laid out in the three cabin owner's version configuration. The owner's hull features the master ensuite aft with a separate shower stall, bench seat and natural light. Forward is the master cabin with island berth, all-weather ventilation, and walk-in access to the forepeak with hanging storage. The Spectra watermaker unit and the Samsung washer/dryer are installed into dedicated lockers you can access without moving mattresses or stored items. The two guest cabins are to port, with the guest head kept separate from the shower compartment.
On deck, the aft cockpit and transom steps were redone with AquaTraction in 2024, and the bottom was taken to epoxy barrier coat with two coats of self-polishing antifouling in 2025. There is a a top-loading cooler under the lower helm seat, Kenyon electric grill with sink and cutting board, , and a full cockpit enclosure with clear side panels. The cockpit table telescopes down into a day bed.
Ground tackle is a Rocna 33 on 50m of 10mm G4 chain behind a 48-volt Maxwell windlass, with a Fortress FX-37 secondary.
The OC Tender 350 with Yamaha 15hp is new in 2025.

I highly recommend Andrew Hodgdon. He served as our buyers broker. He is responsive, highly knowledgeable and very experienced. He is also an excellent guide and counselor before, during and after the boat purchase process. If you are looking for a good-sailing cat, he seems to collect most of the available boats on the better-sailing side of the market. Top marks.
Andrew did an excellent job getting me started on my new adventures. Worked with my conflicting schedule. Is very knowledgeable in the catamaran industry. 😎
I recently sold my Lagoon 450 with the Multihull Team. I would highly recommend their services. The professionalism and personal treatment I received was greatly appreciated.
Great Service, Great People
Helped me through the process.
I would go through them again in a future purchase.
The Multihull Company made the process of buying our boat easy and predictable. Both our agent (Francisco Montaner) and Andrew Holland communicated well and educated/informed us of each step in the process. I highly recommend The Multihull Company for those shopping for a catamaran!

More About MultihullAnswer a few quick questions for your number. Every answer is saved to your Buyer Profile, so every boat on the site is priced for you.
A TMC buyer's broker will send line-by-line costs, what to check at survey, and how this boat compares with others that fit your plan.
Broad estimate by TMC based on the listing's published equipment, typical installed costs for this size of boat, and yard rates in the selected region. Not a survey, a quote or the listing broker's representation, and not a substitute for a professional marine survey. Verify all equipment and condition through a survey before you buy. Delivery, freight and financing figures are estimates; your broker confirms them.
