Design
A signature feature ofWally Yachts is this stepped and spacious transom lounge which Bassani calls a “terrace on the sea”
The wallywind110 has a displacement of only 67.6 tonnes, thanks to careful attention to detail in both the design and construction phases, to ensure that it delivers the performance for which it was designed and is easy to handle. Galma has an APM telescopic keel that can be extended from 4.5 to 6.95 metres. The sailplan on the state-of-the-art Hall Spars mast in high-modulus carbon includes a square-top mainsail with runners and a deflector for added performance. Downwind, under gennaker, the yacht
can deploy an impressive 1,300 square metres of sail area, making it an exciting option for competitive racing, while a large code zero is used for cruising. The yacht is equipped with twin rudders,
which ensure responsiveness and precise handling, also thanks to directmechanical
rudder cable control. Despite its size and power the wallywind110 is easy to handle. Thismakes it ideal for ownersmaking the transition frompower to sail, whomay not want to deal with the complexities of a large sailing yacht. According to Luca Bassani, the wallywind110 is aimed at yacht owners in their 40s or 50s who want a performance-driven yacht that still offers the comfort of a luxury cruiser for family cruising in the summer, but whomay also want to compete in a few regattas. The blend of speed, comfort and ease of usemakes the wallywind110 a versatile option for those looking for both leisure and competition on the water. During our navigation we sailed upwind and close reaching. In 12kts TWS we tightened up to 25° AWA, with 12.1 kts of boatspeed. At 110° TWA the instruments showed a
speed of 13 kts in 13.2kts TWS, using only the self-tacking jib.We can easily imagine the increase in performance if we had hoisted a code zero or gennaker... The wallywind110 Galma has
generated a lot of interest and a second hull is already under construction. This signals a strong demand for high- performance sailing yachts that can switch seamlessly between cruising and racing, while still offering the highest levels of comfort and luxury. ‘In all these 30 years,
I've never had owners so happy with their new Wally,’ said Bassani. ‘It means that the couple not only love what we have designed, but also what we have built and the quality we have achieved. I can honestly say that this is the best Wally ever delivered’.
