Sorry not my idea of a pretty mobo (bloody ugly)alright if i wanted to do a raid on st. nazaire or hijack a ship off somalia but apart from that onne for the ugly bin me thinks

it is fantastic and broke/break so much barriers in design, Wally have been a genius so far in there sailing yachts and motor boats, so much unique and invented so much designs
she is a bit old now launched in 2004
rides also much better then the average other boat in this class, but thats an other thing
new WallyPower 72 and 64 are also super

Interesting how one's tastes change over just one year. I used to think it was the ugliest boat in the world, now I'd say it's fantastic!.....

Yes; it's grown on me, too. Interesting the effect that it's had on the design of other boats as well - the new Fjords, for example:

And, of course, the Fjord's sister ship, the Moody 45:

I really like the lines of the Wally Power's little sister as well:

I suppose one could argue that the new Sealines have picked up on some of the Wally's styling cues as well - but not in a good way, imho /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif.

Uggghhh!

if my mind is not doing funny tricks on this Monday morning Fjord and Moody have the same designer as Wally, that is why the influence is there
both companies (Fjord, Moody) are owned ny Hanse now

Wasn't this boat used in the sci-fi film "The Island" - that's some footage from the film at the start of the vid isn't it?

 

[Sundays_Child]

Yep, was in The Island. No idea if the footage is the same tho.

Impressive engineering but still pug ugly.

And 15 US gals per hour at 60kts? I don't think so!!

And you say later in the thread that the 2004 model is now getting old. How do you think this will stand the test of time? Not well is what I suspect.
