WALLYPOWER58

Wally built Wallypower58 with three engines instead of the twin-engine layout that is the more conventional choice, and the decision runs through the rest of her design. Delivered in 2022, she is a 57-foot sports cruiser built around that single choice rather than styled to look like one.

Build and provenance

The triple Volvo Penta D8 IPS800 installation trades the depth a pair of larger engines would need for a shallower draft, at 1.7 metres, and spreads the load across three units instead of two, which gives her a spare engine's worth of redundancy that a twin-engine boat does not carry. Wallypower58 is a monohull built as a sports cruiser rather than a slower displacement design, and her 5-metre beam is set to suit the speed her engines are built for.

Layout and accommodation

Four guests sleep in two cabins aboard her, a compact count that keeps Wallypower58 a private, owner-driven boat rather than one built to carry a full charter party. The accommodation stays deliberately small so the cockpit and the open deck, where a boat like this is actually used, keep the space instead.

Performance and engineering

Her three Volvo Penta D8 IPS800 engines give her a cruising speed of 32 knots and a top speed of 38 knots, numbers that put her among yachts built for a fast, direct run across open water rather than a slow coastal potter. At those speeds the shallower draft her triple configuration buys her matters more, letting her work close to shore without the depth a heavier twin installation would need.

Where she lies and how to see her

Wallypower58 is on the water in Mallorca, on Spain's Balearic coast. We can put you aboard for a viewing and will be there with you, and if an offer follows, a surveyor and a sea trial come next before anything closes.
