Thrilling fast - wally tender 43
Here we have the stealth-looking Wally Tender 43. This particular Wally was the first ever to be sold as new in Southeast Asia, when she was bought by a Singapore-based enthusiast in 2022. It came after Wally Yachts joined the Ferretti Group’s portfolio of owned brands in 2019. The sale was facilitated by an exclusive local dealer; Hong Seh Yachting based at Sentosa Cove, Singapore. Hong Seh represents various brands in the realm of prestigious yachting, such as Riva, Ferretti, and Pershing.
With over 25 years of experience, Monaco-based Wally Yachts have created an unparalleled 13.2m vessel with supreme handling and power. She is thrillingly fast with an athletic performance of around 40 knots. Power comes from her two Volvo Penta D6 diesel engines that provide a maximum combined propulsion of 880 horsepower.
She has a beam of 4.3m and sits in the water with a 1.2m draft. With a max capacity of 1,200 litres in her fuel tank, and a comfortable cruising speed of 30 knots, she can reach a range of approx 320 nautical miles at a blistering pace.
The seaworthy Wally Tender 43 has a carbon fibre superstructure and a balanced, deep-V carbon fibre hull for utmost durability and maneuverability. Her state-of-the-art cockpit is enveloped behind a striking angular glass windshield and is centrally located at the heart of the vessel, which allows for a convenient and practical walkaround with LED deck lighting.
Mounted across her T-top, upon single slim-line pillars, is a unique carbon sail hard-top that sets the stage for an unrivaled experience on the water. This aerodynamic, innovative solution allows passengers to enjoy the exhilarating open-air living even at top speeds, with its provision of dappled sunshade and protection from the elements. Her slick exterior lines and streamlined silhouette exudes a sense of timeless beauty.
Merging the allure of adventure with the embodiment of refined opulence, this remarkable vessel has set a new standard in the world of luxury seafaring. Not only does she have a sumptuous sunpad at her foredeck and an alfresco dining area aft of the helm, but she also boasts two fold-down bulwark wings that create an unmatched, expansive beachclub deck space at the stern, complete with two articulated sofa-sunpads. This area is sure to captivate the 12 passengers on board.
Her lavishly appointed interior showcases a perfect fusion of comfort and style, consisting of a bathroom, walk-in shower, plus an inviting guest cabin that sleeps two people. Perfect for those quick naps, or an unexpected overnight stay on the water.
The Wally Tender 43 is so versatile that she can be used as a tender to a superyacht, a dayboat when with family and friends, a sailboat support vehicle, or even a luxury hotel shuttle. Either way, she will fulfil whatever role she is given with pure style.
She looks majestic here in her gun-metal grey colouring, but she is also available in a whole range of head-turning colours.
Unfortunately, her pricing details are not currently listed.
This floating haven promises to leave an indelible mark on anyone fortunate enough to step aboard.
