With the 30.48 metre long "Tango", Wally launched a radical super racer with Mark Mills lines and Pininfarina interior.

Displacing just 47.5 tonnes, the carbon-fibre slipper is the fourth Wallycento from the brand founded by Luca Bassani. Persico Marine laminated the performance cruiser in accordance with the class regulations of Germanischer Lloyd and optimised the flat deck and cockpit for tough regatta use. The experienced Wally owner is planning extensive trips with his family and friends in addition to Cup and Bucket competitions. Three suites accommodate six guests, while the cruising crew of up to four sleeps in two cabins. The modern ultralight interior was created by the Pininfarina design team.

The carbon fibre mast and boom were supplied by Southern Spars, while standing rigging made from ECsix carbon cables supports the rig. The crew uses 640 square metres of sail laminate on the wind, while a 223 kilowatt engine pushes "Tango" through calms and into the harbour.

Wally is currently working on two more sailing yachts (Wally 93 and 145) and three motor yachts (27m Wallyace #5 and two Wallypower 52).
