2020 ILIAD 50 - Banter
Banter is a beautifully presented 2020 ILIAD 50, a luxury long-range power catamaran that combines exceptional efficiency, impressive cruising performance and remarkable onboard comfort. Designed by Riccardo Bulgarelli and built by ILIAD Catamarans, this highly regarded model has developed a reputation for delivering the space and liveability of a much larger yacht while maintaining economical operating costs and outstanding sea-keeping abilities.
Purpose-built for extended cruising, Banter features the sought-after three-cabin owner's layout, providing generous accommodation and privacy for family cruising or entertaining guests. Her spacious main deck design seamlessly connects the cockpit, saloon and galley, creating a bright and inviting living environment perfectly suited to life aboard.
Powered by twin Yanmar 440hp shaft-drive diesels with low hours, she cruises comfortably at approximately 17 knots and offers a top speed of around 21 knots. Manoeuvring is effortless thanks to a Side Power bow thruster and Wave Marine remote docking system, providing confidence in marinas and confined spaces.
Designed for genuine self-sufficiency, Banter is exceptionally well equipped with a substantial lithium battery system, Victron power management, 1.49kW of solar generation, 13kW Onan generator, watermaker producing over 220 litres per hour, reverse-cycle air conditioning and premium household appliances throughout. Her modern Raymarine navigation suite, Starlink connectivity and comprehensive onboard systems make extended cruising both comfortable and practical.
Currently lying on Queensland's Airlie Beach and GST paid in Australia, Banter presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a highly specified, late-model ILIAD 50 that is ready to step aboard and cruise immediately.
