Projects: WallyPower 64, WallyPower 90, WallyPower 55 m, WallyPower 70 m, WallyIsland

The WallyPower line gets larger: the new 64 is the latest model introduced to widen the range of the successful motor boat designs developed by Wally. This 19-meter yacht represents the transition between the WallyTender and larger WallyPower yachts. She fully exploits the WallyPower line concept to integrate design and function, combining large interior volumes with high performance, sea keeping, and wide open air areas. The forward deck is developed to safely enjoy this sunbathing and social area. The glass superstructure, a unique and distinctive feature of the Wallypower line, offers shelter and protection to the cockpit living area, and can be closed by the aft folding door. Under the glass superstructure, the navigation and driving control station is to starboard. The central social area features to starboard a 6-8 people dining table and to port a lounge with a coffee table that can be converted into a second large dining table. Aft is the sunbathing pad with cushions. Three options of the interior layout are available, that differ for the number and type of cabins. All the cabins of the three versions have en-suites. The 2-cabin layout features the owner’s suite aft and the VIP stateroom forward. The owner’s en-suite is the same size of that of the 118 WallyPower owner’s. The 3-cabin layout 01 has the owner’s stateroom forward, and two identical guest double cabins aft. The 3-cabin layout 02 features the large owner’s stateroom forward, one guest double cabin with queen size bed and one guest double cabin with bunks aft. This version perfectly meets the requirements of families with children. All the three layouts feature the galley amidships to starboard, and the crew double cabin with en-suite at the forward end with direct access from the deck. The interior design and styling vary according to the configuration: offering a selection of different styles, each one featuring specific combinations of wood veneers, lacquered woods, metals, fabrics, colours, and details. As a result, each WallyPower reflects the client personality. All the styles are contemporary and perfectly integrated into the overall design. The propulsion system comes into two versions that differ for the engine type and power. The standard equipment provides two MAN 1,360 Hp for a max speed of 43 knots, the optional equipment offers two MAN 1,550 Hp providing over 50 knots of max speed. Both engine types drive KaMeWa water-jets and provide 300-mile range at cruising speed. The first two units of the new WallyPower 64 model are currently under construction in Fano, Italy with the delivery scheduled in May and in June 2008 for the number 1 and the number 2 respectively. The production schedule for the new WallyPower model is of six units per year starting from October 2008, with five units ready to be delivered before the summer 2009. A new facility is being set up by Wally in the Fano area, dedicated to the WallyPower line, and it’ll be operational in the summer. The project for the WallyPower 90 sits in between the 70 model which is now in it's second generation phase and the first model for this fantastic line up of power yachts the 118. The project of the 90 is based on the lines of the latest 70 2007 model and will be available in 3 or 4 cabin version. Superior performance of 40 knots with a pair of 2 x 2400 hp MTUs is estimated along with a seaworthy ride certified by RINA class standards. The 55m WallyPower developed by WallyDesign© department, is a mega yacht characterised by the displacement hull that derives from the navy hydrodynamic technology. Little information have been passed about this important Super Yacht project from Wally, with a length of 70 metres and with lines following the first unit of the WallyPower line, the 118, but in double the size. WallyIsland is a mega yacht of 99 metres in size with all the comforts and amenities to live onboard full time, that is completely independent and self-sufficient, and features improved nautical characteristics compared to those of similar size yachts.
