Representing a functional and conceptual leap compared to her smaller sister, the wallywind130 is a sailing yacht in a class of its own. Naturally, it retains the core values of the wallywind range – razor-sharp performance, ease of handling and sublime comfort. But it goes further. Much further.

Judel/vrolijk & co. developed advanced naval architecture for the boat, giving it the sought-after potential to perform exceptionally well on the racecourse, but deliver comfortable passage-making in cruising mode. A high modulus carbon mast, telescopic keel and roller-furling boom offer optimal speed and handling, all without jeopardising shorthanded ability. This is an easy boat to sail well.

Her full 130ft length makes it possible to introduce a two-level living concept, with the main saloon at deck level and the cabins below. The lightweight carbon deckhouse is glazed on every side, maximising the potential light and dramatic sightlines. The full-length skylight also makes it easy to keep an eye on the sails.

Choose where to put the owner’s suite, with its private salon and his n’ hers bathrooms: forward for ultimate privacy or aft to benefit from the full beam. There are three other guest cabins, all with ensuite bathrooms and storage reminiscent of an even larger yacht.

Cockpit space is on a whole different scale, with three distinct zones that run aft to the sofas around the beach club – there’s room to entertain 20 or more guests here in extraordinary comfort and style.
