Feretti Group’s Wally dazzles at the Singapore Yachting Festival 2024
Wally showed off two models at the Singapore Yachting Festival(April 25-28), amazing enthusiasts with the debut in APAC of the wallywhy200. It had elegant décor by Loro Piana Interiors and we understand that a second model featuring Loro Piana decor with a different style will arrive in Asia in a few months time. Docked alongside this model was the equally impressive wallypower 58.
The wallywhy200 showcased at the Singapore Yachting Festival 2024 is the first unit built with the “Main deck entertainment” layout, specifically designed for the APAC market. She features a spectacular 4.7-metre-high glazed bow housing a living area that includes a large round table and a bar with wine cellar, offering an uninterrupted 270-degree panoramic view and natural light.
The eye-catching upper deck has a futuristic glass and a carbon fibre dome, a distinctive Wally feature that is reminiscent of the clean, angular look of the legendary wallypower. Also, on the upper deck, the extended, structural top with no supporting pillars is a masterpiece of design and engineering for her exceptional stability and strength.
The elegance of the interior
The wallywhy200 displayed accommodates the sleeping area on the lower deck where, in addition to the master cabin at the bow that features a transversely positioned bed, there are two guest cabins. A one-piece laminated carbon staircase, as well as having a load-bearing function, is an extremely light element connecting the three decks and making the bulkheads superfluous in the huge 61 m2 open space living area. Open-pore teak was chosen for the furniture with walkways of the two living halls and the lower deck corridor also teak. The restful and natural color palette of neutral and sandy tones creates a refined and timeless effect.
On-demand infotainment at your fingertips
With 5G wireless network connection and home automation control, guests are able to comfortably manage all the audio/video systems via mobile devices, both outside and inside the yacht. Through Naviop’s integrated system, they are also able to check navigation data, keeping the yacht’s progress and parameters constantly under control. This unit features a state-of-the-art 55-inch KTV in the upper living room and a 5.1 Premium sound system on the main and upper decks, while a sophisticated Sonance sound system serves the outdoor areas.
This unit features a 55-inch TV in the upper living room and a 5.1 Premium sound system on the main deck along with a KTV (Karaoke) system in the main deck living room. On the exterior areas a sophisticated Sonance sound system to entertain the owner and guests also in the main deck and upper deck cockpits.
Beach Club: a huge living room on the water
Experiencing the sea means also enjoying activities in direct contact with the water. The folding beach club bulwarks, for example, not only allow access to the sea on three sides, but also expand the living area to 32 m2, transforming it into a true terrace over the water. In addition, wallywhy200 boasts two “invisible” garages with a storage capacity never seen before on yachts of this size, capable of accommodating a 4.15m jet tender, wave runner, seabob, paddleboard and other water toys.
Speed with stability
The wallywhy200 high performing hull, like all wally hulls, is capable of cutting the waves without hitting and thus, minimizing the pitching. She can cruise at 20 knots (23 knots are the top speed), maintaining a horizontal position without reducing the guests’ comfort on board, which is unique among fast semi-displacement yachts.
wallypower58
This model includes a pillarless curved glass and carbon dome, wide and deep side walkways linking the bow and aft, and ample shaded guest areas that are open to the surroundings while providing protection from the sun, wind and water.
versatility
the wallypower58, is a dependable all-round performer that is suitable for cruising in all latitudes. The adjustable cockpit top features an electric hatch to allow for increased ventilation as needed, while the covered exterior area can be air conditioned to offer relief from warmer conditions at anchor or in port. When cruising in chillier climates, the cockpit can be fully enclosed by isinglass for protection against the cold.
The aft deck’s large sunpad comes as standard, with lounging space for four adults looking across the stern alongside four adults seated facing forward, with a huge toy storage unit located underneath that is accessed via two gullwing doors. This aft deck area also benefits from optional shade provided by an innovative electrical awning overhead.
A convertible passerelle-bathing ladder is hidden in the stern, and the aft platform lowers into the water at the touch of a button to launch or retrieve the tender and water toys.
flexible layout
Throughout the exterior, the wallypower58 delivers flexibility for all manner of guest needs and configurations. In the upper cockpit there is generous seating for 12-16 guests across the two flanking benches and on the forward-facing portion of the sunpad. To the starboard, a large table opens to create a seated dining area while still allowing unobstructed passage from the cabin area on the port side. The galley is split into two sections, allowing for independent configuration of the spaces from a long list of options including fridges, icemakers, cooking tops and storage.
Allowing comfortable overnight accommodation for up to four adult guests onboard, this configuration’s second cabin has direct access to the day head, while there is also overhead access via a hatch in the floor of the galley above.
Up front, the master cabin features a queen-size bed and ensuite bathroom with a large, standalone shower.
These two models showcased at the Singapore Yacht Festival are from the Ferretti Group. In June 2023, Ferretti S.p.A. concluded the process for dual listing – becoming the first ever Company to be dual listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Euronext Milan.
