A statement debut
When Wally unveiled the second wallywind110 at this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival, the yacht quickly drew the gaze of onlookers. At 110 feet, she is the newest largest sailing yacht on display at the festival — a natural showpiece for a yard that has long blurred the line between race-bred performance and luxury cruising.
Her arrival follows Galma, the first wallywind110 delivered in 2024, but this new hull makes a distinct statement. From her sand-grey finish to her lighter interior palette and flexible living spaces, she is not a copy but a refinement — a fresh take on a proven platform.
“This boat represents Wally at its very best,” the team explained at the launch. “She takes the DNA of the brand and evolves it into something even more versatile.”

Proven power beneath the beauty
Performance is the wallywind110’s backbone. The hull lines, drawn by Judel/Vrolijk & Co., deliver the mix of power, stability, and control that has made the studio one of the world’s most respected naval architects.
Below the waterline, a telescopic keel allows draft to shift between 4.5 and 6.95 metres, balancing harbour access with offshore stability. Twin rudders ensure grip and control even when pressed hard. Above, the rig speaks of power: a Hall Spars carbon mast and ECSix stays support 660 square metres of upwind sail area in North Sails 3Di. Unfurl the downwind wardrobe and she blooms to 1,283 square metres.

It’s a package designed for exhilaration. The wallywind110 is built not only to turn heads in harbour but also to stretch her legs offshore.
Light, space, and subtle refinement
Inside, Wally has given this second hull a character of her own. Where Galma used a darker oak tone, this yacht opts for a paler stain that floods the saloon and cabins with a lighter, airier feel. Natural light pours in through hull windows, skylights, and carefully angled glazing.
Carbon fibre detailing has been reinterpreted too. Instead of the 45-degree weave seen in the first hull, the floor panels now feature a squared 90-degree pattern, giving a crisp, contemporary edge.
The saloon is raised, offering wide views out through skylights and deep hull lights, while clever design ensures the coachroof remains almost invisible from outside. The effect is an interior that feels unexpectedly voluminous for such a sleek profile.
Four cabins, fresh ideas
Accommodation has also taken a step forward. The owner’s suite sits forward, flanked by a VIP cabin and two identical guest cabins aft. But there’s a twist: the VIP cabin features a sliding bed system that can convert two singles into a full double in minutes — a practical detail that adds flexibility for family or charter use.
Where Galma used a bar area to separate the forward cabins from the main social space, this yacht offers a more versatile solution. A dedicated office desk, complete with hidden storage, makes the space ideal for remote work or a quiet retreat. It’s a subtle acknowledgement of how yacht owners now use their boats: not only for escape, but also as floating extensions of their daily lives.
Outdoor living, Wally style
On deck, Wally’s philosophy of seamless outdoor living is fully realised. The guest cockpit is separated from the sail controls, allowing guests to relax in safety while the crew works. Flexible seating can face inward for conversation or outward for sweeping sea views.
The brand’s trademark “terrace on the sea” opens across the stern, combining sofas and sunpads that spill toward the water. It’s the kind of space that defines the Wally approach — as much about social moments at anchor as about speed under sail.
From dining beneath the bimini to lively gatherings on the expansive aft deck, the wallywind110 is built as much for lifestyle as for performance.
Raising the bar in superyachting
The wallywind110 is pitched not only at first-time superyacht owners but also at those moving up from the 80–90ft bracket. The extra volume allows for a fourth guest cabin and crew quarters for up to five, expanding the range of cruising and entertaining possibilities.
Her presence at Cannes — and soon at the Monaco Yacht Show — underscores Wally’s intent. The wallywind110 is not a niche experiment but a cornerstone of the yard’s sailing vision, a yacht that combines three decades of innovation into one compelling package.
Wally’s legacy continues
Founded in 1994, Wally has built its reputation on tearing up conventions. From radical maxi racers to minimalist powerboats, the brand has consistently redefined expectations of what a yacht should be. Twice awarded the ADI Compasso d’Oro, the world’s leading design prize, Wally stands as much within the design world as it does the sailing world.
The second wallywind110 reflects that legacy. She is not only beautiful, but also functional; not only powerful, but also comfortable. She shows how a yacht can be both a performance thoroughbred and a luxurious retreat.
