After the launch of the 43wallytender last November, Wally was applauded for its impeccable design philosophy and expertise. The shipyard has taken its game to the next level with the launch of the 43wallytender X, which offers even more speed.

The debut design featured Wally’s innovative centre-cockpit design, which offers the protection of a cockpit alongside the practicality and access of a walkaround and modular deck configuration that can adapt to an owner’s needs. Its successor also features a protected cockpit with a wraparound glass windshield. The design combines the feeling of freedom in the open air and the security and comfort of a more enclosed yacht. Developed by Wally and Ferretti Group’s engineering department, the boat is constructed in advanced composites with carbon fibre at the Wally facilities in Forlì, with a 21-degree, deep-V deadrise that delivers exceptional seaworthiness. The tender is the first unit being finished in Wally’s exclusive dark grey hue.

“The highlight of the Wallytenders is their ability to serve a variety of purposes through their pure, simple and seaworthy design. The inboard 43wallytender was very well received last year, and we feel there is a segment of the market that will benefit from the same design elements but with the performance of an outboard propulsion system,” says Stefano de Vivo, Wally managing director. “It could be a large yacht looking for the master of versatility to add to its tenders fleet, a family in search of the ideal day boat to take them to the sandbar, or an adventurous owner with water sports passion. The design is also well suited for a hotel shuttle, a day charter boat or a scuba platform.”

The 43wallytender X comes with a standard propulsion package that has a triple 300hp Mercury Verados engine with a top speed of 40 knots. Seafarers can also consider an additional 10 knots with triple 450R Mercury Verados, and can opt for the battery pack running the Seakeeper stabilizer powered by solar panels mounted on the T-top. The boat features a protected a cabin with bathroom and separate shower, expansive side-opening bulwarks, a protective T-top and a teak deck as standard.

Billed as “the ultimate day boat,” the 43wallytender X offers a modular aft deck configuration to suit various purposes. Patrons can also choose the large sun pad to provide easy-access storage for water toys under the comfortable lounging space. The yacht can be equipped as a water sports boat with a ski pole and other accessories for the ideal on-water experience. The pillarless windshield is made from tempered glass, the largest in its class. A large cooler box has been integrated into the seating to offer ultimate comfort. Below deck, the climate-controlled cabin provides an ideal setting for relaxation and siestas away from the heat of the afternoon. The cabin is equipped with a separate shower compartment that has generous headroom.
