Wally unveils new 101-foot high performance sailing sloop at 2019 Cannes Yachting Festival
Cannes, 10 September 2019 – #wally has developed an exciting new 101-foot sailing #yacht, the first since becoming part of the Ferretti Group.
Currently in the final stages of the design process, the naval architecture is by Judel / Vrolijk and the exterior styling has been developed in collaboration with Pininfarina. The semi-custom project displays all the innovative hallmarks of #wally iconic design and introduces the #wally Magic keel©, a breakthrough innovation of the keel system.
- Elevated performance with new-generation hull shape, a new breakthrough #wally Magic Keel©, powerful sail plan and carbon composite construction
- Deck and interior layouts are based on a flexible platform that can be adapted to the needs of different owners
- Spacious and highly liveable both inside and out, the 30m #yacht offers the living spaces of a 40m
Main deck
“Following the original spirit of #wally, the 101 is a #yacht offering tremendous comfort inside and outside combined with swift performance while being simple and easy to sail,” says #lucabassani, Wally’s founder.
Stylishly contemporary with a sleek profile, the low-slung deckhouse features a signature funnel- shaped glass roof combined with teak decking that blends seamlessly into the foredeck.
The exceptionally large cockpit is designed for spacious, open-air living. In fact, between the helm position and the companionway there is 39m2 of single-level deck space, and if you include the sunbathing area in the stern the total area is 58.4m2.
By way of comparison, a last-generation 100-foot #superyacht offers a surface area of around 14m2. If you then include the sunbathing area in the stern the total area is 34.5m2.
With safety in mind in both cruising and racing conditions, the #wally101 features 50-cm high bulwarks– a first in its category.
The cockpit, protected by a practical dodger and awning, can be personalised and furnished with seating, tables and sunloungers to suit individual owners’ cruising requirements as well as removed for racing.
Interior
High performance sailing yachts are usually limited in terms of interior layout solutions. This is decidedly not the case with the #wally101 that offers a very flexible general arrangement.
A generous main salon can be combined with layouts from 3 to 5 cabins: 3 cabins and 3 separate living zones (eg. TV room, playroom for children, office, gym, etc); 4 cabins and 2 separate living zones; or 5 cabins for those who wish to have more guests ore more crew.
All of the different guest area layouts are coupled with spacious crew quarters aft featuring 2 en- suite double cabins, crew mess, laundry, galley and a dedicated area for navigation.
In addition, the raised salon provides more room for the engine room underneath, while the #wally Magic Keel©, the latest innovation that #wally brings to the market, does not intrude in the interior living space.
The aft garage provides room for a 4m tender.
Performance
“Ferretti Group is pushing on both souls of #wally: sailing and power. #wally has always set itself apart in the sailing world through its design but even further through its technological genius. The #wally Magic Keel© is a perfect example of this,” says Stefano De Vivo, Managing Director of #wally. With an upwind speed of 12 knots in 12 knots of breeze (with 75-degree tack) and 20 knots easily reachable when sailing downwind, the #wally101 offers exceptional performance combined with superb cruising comfort.
“For racing enthusiasts, the #wally101 is a #yacht optimised under the handicapping system to be highly competitive in corrected time. Additionally, the #wally Magic Keel© offers considerable advantages in terms of safety and interior flexibility”, continues Bassani.
The #wally Magic Keel© allows to vary the draft more than two meters for optimal performance on the race course. At the same time, ease of access to secluded anchorages when cruising is granted thanks to the possibility of using it in the low draft position to navigate under sail or engine power. The system also has a dumping feature for extra safety in case of grounding.
