The 64 Wallypower represents the intermediate model between a demanding boat like the 73 and a sportier one like the 55. It responds to the needs of those owners who want to stay in the medium size range without, at the same time, giving up covered space inside the deckhouse. Clients tending more towards cruising, clients who sail in colder waters.

It is, besides, a design which brings together all the characteristics of the other models: big windows for enjoying the passing scene, open spaces and optimum seaworthiness. …Read More
Focus on performances
Luca Bassani, Wally’s founder, has always been very clear in choosing the hull lines for his Wally power: it has to perform.
A well-performing hull doesn’t just mean fast but above all, comfortable, easy to steer in big seas and with good wave penetration, able to avoid the blows during impact and keeping straight. This is why the Wally hulls are very fine towards the bow and have a very reduced hull volume. It is a question of knowing what to look for in a boat: spacious interiors with bathroom and anti-bathroom, bed and anti-bed, galley and scullery but with disastrous seaworthiness or a good compromise on interior space and excellent seaworthiness.

My work then, is the unceasing search for every millimeter that can exploited in the hull, ergonomic studies of all the positions, the tricks to make the spaces seem bigger than they are without ever, sacrificing the external spaces which, for us, are the lifeblood of the boat. None of this is written in a book. All this is called designing, spirit of adventure, the desire to pursue ideas, dreams, construct, observe and redesign to correct my own errors and build and build again. Luca and I thought the same way about this and we were not interested in talking about things which couldn’t be done, we talked about the things we could do and we did them.
