Wally Yachts is a yacht brand headquartered in Monaco.[1]
Company history
[edit ]Founded by Italian entrepreneur Luca Bassani [2] in 1994, Wally started out with sailing boats and then branched out into designing motoryachts, including the 118 WallyPower.[3]
Wally launched sailing yachts ranging from the Wallynano 37 feet (11 m) day sailer to the 166 feet (51 m) flybridge carbonfiber sloop Better Place.[citation needed ]
Wally is known[4] for being a pioneer of carbon fiber as a yacht-building material.[citation needed ]
On 31 January 2019 Ferretti Group acquired Wally Yachts.[5]
In film
[edit ]In 2005, the 118 WallyPower was featured in the film The Island , starring Ewan McGregor. The yacht appeared to be a distant memory in the mind of McGregor's character. A 2004 Top Gear UK TV episode also featured the 118 WallyPower.[citation needed ]
