“The balista was an ancient missile weapon that launched a large projectile at a distant target. Developed from earlier Greek weapons, it was during the conquest of the Roman Empire that the balista proved its worth many times in sieges and battles, on sea and on land”
Launched in 2013 and with a recently completed refit, BALISTA, offers the very best in luxury on the water. Adorned with beautiful Italian woodwork, stunning marble and plush furnishings with a cool leather trim, BALISTA ensures luxury and class is abundant. The main salon and skylounge are spaces to relax and socialize, offering ample seating as well as a piano and bar in the main salon. A standout feature is the yacht’s Asian inspired sliding doors in the skylounge that open to reveal a drop-down balcony.
