The centre cockpit drives the deck arrangement

The wallytender43 is built around a central cockpit that keeps guests protected behind the angular windscreen while preserving walkaround access to the bow and stern. This arrangement allows the driver to maintain a strong view ahead without isolating the social areas from the rest of the deck.

Wally uses the platform for several roles, including family day boating, resort shuttle work and service as a superyacht tender. The broad use case explains why circulation, storage and boarding arrangements receive as much attention as styling or maximum speed.

Fold-down wings expand the aft living area

Two aft side wings can fold outward at anchor to increase the usable deck width and create a stronger connection with the water. Articulated furniture allows the same area to switch between sofa seating and sunpad use rather than dedicating every square metre to one fixed purpose.

A carbon sailcloth hard-top provides shade without enclosing the cockpit, while the forward sunlounge creates a second exterior relaxation zone away from the stern. The result is a day-boat layout designed to support several activities at the same time.

Twin Volvo diesels deliver 40-knot performance

The current technical sheet lists twin Volvo Penta D6-440 engines and a published maximum speed of 40 knots, with 32 knots quoted as the cruising figure. Fuel capacity is 1,180 litres and the listed cruising range is approximately 320 nautical miles.

Those figures make the yacht suitable for relatively fast coastal transfers as well as local day use. Real-world range and speed will vary with loading, weather and hull condition, so owners should treat the factory data as reference values rather than guaranteed operating results.

A double berth adds genuine overnight capability

Below deck, the model includes a double berth and a bathroom with a separate walk-in shower, giving owners the option of staying aboard overnight rather than returning to shore after every trip. Air conditioning also makes the compact interior more practical in hot climates.

At 13.2 metres, the wallytender43 therefore sits between a pure day boat and a small cruising yacht. Its appeal comes from combining high speed, flexible exterior living and just enough accommodation to extend use beyond a single afternoon on the water.
