True. It's an extremely important part of the boat.

Search for a channel called Enes Plus. He has a full detailed tour of all spaces.

Go to KZfaq channel EnesPlus. He shows crew quarters and engine room.

Get Nick on the case!

Well he was only on board while under way so couldn't exactly show the engine room. and I'd guess for this press trip the crew space may have also been off limits.

Agreed. Staircase is cool. Maybe somewhere else. Like in a corner.

Agreed. That staircase needs to move

Have empty unused space or stairs. Use your imagination

@@Landmantx When you step out of your owners cabin, in undies, to retrieve a forgotten phone; you'l appreciate that there is not a straight visual shot all the way to through your boat, with your naked wife in the owners cabin forming a sunset silhouette, from the dock you are tied stern-to......... The stairwell is a clever, I'd say very successful, way to gently provide some division between public and private spaces, without reducing the feeling of openness of what is ultimately a boat trying very hard to feel bigger than it strictly is. The "private" areas, forward of the staircase, is subtly segregated from the more public stern in other ways as well: Different flooring being one of them, perhaps different color choices. Remember, this whole thing is just a 24 meter boat..... With primary emphasis on being an oceanfront vacation "club" for shorter term vacationing. Yet one where the owners may still want a little bit of respite from the "action" from time to time. It's not an Abramovich class cruise ship, big enough to have different weather systems, along with perhaps a Ukrainian deck segregated from the Russian ones, in different parts of the vessel.

I just can't believe it's taking so long for catamarans and SWATH yachts to become more popular. It would improve things so much and widen the customer base too due to the massively increased comfort.

Others who were there at the show told me that those below deck areas were still off limits, the yacht wasn't finished enough for people to see it all yet.

How much time do people spend in bed? That’s the best view on the boat.

@@chiane1968 It's THE boat for honeymooning in the Med.... Big enough to not sacrifice comforts, able to get away from the maddening crowds of hoi-pollloi who clutter up everywhere in season..... And with an above average view from the suite :) To justify owning the thing long term, Wally would have to show plans for changing that prime real estate into something more long-term useful. A recording studio, or perhaps an office or, "boardroom"..... Anything other than wasting all that view on a pair or two of shut eyes. At least unless you're Hugh Hefner..... Come to think of it, the whole boat has a bit of a high-profile recording studio vibe. None of it look all that private, cozy and personal. More like a collection of design-forward spaces for clients and entourages to loiter around in.

​@@chiane1968Good question!

No one by the looks of it!

Five staff usually means two bridge (one captain, one first mate with mechanical knowledge), one deck hand, and two on interior. So that's ultimately three cleaners.

There is self cleaning glass on the market and has been for some time and would be surprised if wally was not useing this type of glass . It works well in a residential enviroment though how it would perform in the marine enviroment would be the test of this technology

@@rickydee5863 aye, salt water is one thing and another is the brutal UV it'll face long-term as these are destined for sun-trap destinations, so it would have to be very hardcore material. I assume the windows are cleaned from long-handed brooms from the bow, but what a job! The downside of no mid-level deck...

@@darthkek1953 good points i dont know if the glass treatment for self cleaning would would be effective over time with the salt enviroment .that was my reservation .with regard to uv where i live the uv rates are some of the highest in the world and they have been fixing self cleaning glass to both residental and commercial buildings and continue to do so .so i presume it has been accepted as efective

@Idi B: At anchor it would be wonderful with such a great view, but have you ever tried to sleep in the roughest riding area of any yacht? Amidship is always the smoothest ride.

It's 200 feet! That's a gigantic waste of space. The boat is that huge and the Sirena, Azimut Magellano, Numarine, Alpha, Bering...they all make this look like a missed point.

@@clifbradley this is 88 feet...200 tonne

@@fuandymuhammad8400 I know. That was kind of a joke considering most boat models are named after their length. It was meant to be funny because those of us that know about it, know about it. Those that don't, just assume it's a 200 ft Megayacht.

Yeah, we heard about the galley being below (twice) but never actually saw it... Where's Nick when you need him, lol.

Interesting points, but if they followed your opinion, it would be just another plastic money pit, and not a Wally. With IPS drives and a bow thruster, i do not expect side winds to be an issue. Its a marina to marina boat, nothing else.

Nice condo unit...

I believe this is a coastal yahct..the length is an entry level

@@fuandymuhammad8400 LOL

If "racing" around at 20 knots fort he duration of a vacation was what owners did, it would indeed be obscene. But instead, most people may do two 25 mile hops, and then 2 back, in the course of their vacation. Not unlikely lots of it at much lower burn displacement speeds. So, at most 800 gallon in a week or two. Still a good bit, but not nearly that obscene. Avid poker runners, in such smaller boats, can burn more than that, in shorter time..... The rest of the time, the yachts just sit anchored in some bay, or even in a marina. Almost all these big, flashy poweryachts, are used more as Four-Seasons-class mobile-homes-on-the-sea, than as voyagers. Most people, even rich people, who actually want to "voyage" in something this big, still seem to prefer sail.

Some of the strange but functional styling elements of the Sherpa range.

Think of it as a 50 meter "super yacht" cut in half: Full width rear social spaces retained. Which is all the areas that see almost any use at all, on almost all "super yachts," anyway. Even at Wally prices, this will be a lot more economical, not to mention easier to operate, than a 50 meter. And, being Wally, won't be giving up anything in terms of fit and finish, nor even much in the way of prestige, compared to those.

@@paulnorman8274 Different perspective, thanks.

"Not much," compared to what it would cost to get similar rear/social-end spaces in more traditional designs. If you're someone who spends a good whack chartering small-end-of-the-scale "super yachts" every summer, and use them the way most such people realistically do: This hardly-cheap boat may even make some twisted sort of financial sense in the long run. It was never intended to make sense to internet sailors as a "sea boat," though. Judged as that, it was a failure from the get go. But even "expedition yachts", styling and ultimate abilities aside, are almost never used like that.

Anchor nook.

yeah cause young people buy yachts right?

@@blest5132 It's what all the cool kids are doing these days. Askew baseball caps with North American logos, bath salts, Buckfast Tonic Wine, pocket superyachts.

@@blest5132 Look at the average age of Rolls Royce buyers nowadays. The more crazy westerners give their wealth and power to china, the more young billionaires will be buying yachts. Hell, soon people buying European Yacht brands will be younger than the buyers of yachts were earlier.

Lol so what's the equivalence of Wally in terms of an automotive manufacturer? Ferrari is decently innovative within the automative world. Their designs have been modern and sometime ahead of its time. Just because they are both Italians doesn't mean they are the same by nature. I think Rolls Royce is a better analogy.

The anchor is in the lower deck (under the mastercabin), look here: 17:30

@@XiBaXha Yes...that's the anchor pocket...but it looks like the anchor winch in up on the top of the bow, over the master cabin. So I am presuming that the chain is run up from the pockets on each side to the winch, and then either into a shallow chain locker still on top of the master, or back down to a chain locker located somewhere under the master cabin. 💯✌

@@XiBaXha I thought maybe the winch on the top deck at 15:18 is just for show, and that all the real anchor handling does happen in the space in the bow under the master cabin, but there are very clearly foot buttons there to activate the winch...why put fake buttons in the deck? So I just figure it must be some kind of somewhat indirect path that the anchor chain takes to travel between the anchors, the winch, and the chain locker. 🖖

The anchor chain and lifting gear will be down at the level of the where we can seethe anchors on the hull.makes perfect sense i suspect that positiin will provide superior purchase for winching .another first for wally .im sure this will become the norm in the future for others in the marine industry .

@@rickydee5863 But the winch is on the top deck...are you saying that they do not use that winch for the anchor? Or are you agreeing with me that they must route the chain up to the winch from the anchor pockets down there low on the sides of the hull?

A lot of these Med yachts get tucked away in ports during inclement weather. You're generally correct, in an explorer yacht setting it'd be much less acceptable, but this type of yacht generally has a different use case than any explorer would be intended for.

@@NoGoodHandlesComingToMind: Agreed. This yacht is somewhat of a novelty to be used in fair weather & enjoyed at anchor. Back in the 80's I was on a delivery crew. We delivered yachts all over the world. Mostly sailing vessels, but also several powered yachts as well. Tell ya the truth, I'm not fond of most modern yachts. They all look like floating Nike Sport Shoes to me.

It's not a boat which will often be moved at night when the owners are onboard. The design brief was maximum play/lounge/entertaining space in under 25 meters. Even the choice of powering, 4xIPS, is wasteful if lots of actual long distance cruising with a professional crew is the goal. Almost all potential buyers will have extensively chartered much bigger yachts, and wants that sort of "super yacht" saloon/cockpit space and feel. Some of the more ambitious of them, in a boat they may fantasize they will "take out on their own" on occasion (which is where IPS would, at least theoretically, shine....). Few people utilise the rest of the length and complication which has traditionally been required to get a boat with a similarly big booty.

I agree especially with staircase in the middle! It absolutely ruins skylounge with the large seating and tv opposite! You don't want a staircase in front of your saloon couches to watch tv movie or sports! And it ruins main deck! WHY PUT A STAIRCASE IN MAIN VIEW OF EVERY DECK??? The main master is the only place that feels open and right! The rest is so WRONG when it COULD of easily of been so right! And as for exterior looks ahh no thanks! To square and odd looking! Take all the glass out and the interior would be horrible! It would not sell in my opinion! Bazaar yacht if you ask me! Change the exterior profile for a more sleek look and get rid of staircase you will be on a winner!!! Happy sailing all ⚓🛥

Getting huge (for the size boat) living/social-, and impressive owner-, areas within 24meters was the aim. 24 meters is just easier and cheaper. Enough so, that some people who currently spend fortunes chartering bigger boats, may perhaps be convinced to instead purchase their own. It feels like a much bigger boat than it is, when you're in the social areas. Short and wide, loses appeal once you go big enough to be limited to displacement speeds. You give up speed, efficient and range compared to longer, more slender designs. And you pitch more (last thing you want with an owners' high in the bow.... You're also somewhat stuck with an owners in, or at least near, the bow in a shorter boat). But in a semidisplacement hull, that's (mostly) moot. And, compared to smaller-end, narrower "super yachts" up to almost twice the length, a lot of the interior space you give up, ends up just being corridors leading to their more longitudinally dispersed interiors (big boats need (not sure if by fire and/or other regulation, but at least by tradition) wide walkaround decks, which makes their narrowish topsides interiors even narrower. And since there are limits to how cramped a corridor in their middle can be while still feeling like a "super yacht", corridors end up taking a good share of covered space. Much more so than in this wider, shorter design. In truly big super-yachts, this becomes less relevant. But for the 30-40, perhaps 50 meter ones this "competes" with for attention, it's very noticeable.) I find this a very inspired design. Obviously very different and more Med- than Florida, more loaded-guy- than wealthy-guy focused, but somewhat, kind'a, in the vein of Benford's Florida Bay Coasters: Make the ship in a form which follows function as actually used by most owners; rather than forcing those functions to fit into more traditional ship forms. It obviously won't please hard-core circumnavigating "salts" of the Slocum kind, but that's not whom they were designed for.

Bye bye annoying relatives as well

It's clearly in that class of competition : the largest yacht we can make that doesn't trigger the Large Yacht Code making it much cheaper to staff. Very important to lower-end millionaires or mid-rage charter companies.

That's what I was thinking, not like I could ever afford it, but just out of curiosity

Lol!!! That's actually true! A very nice Las Vegas hotel, but still.... I don't really feel that's a bad thing for a boat in this class. Truth to be told, the "luxury'ness" any accomodation these days, is more often than not judged by how closely it resembles a suite at Four Seasons or Aman. But I can see why some boaters may prefer something more traditionally maritime.

.... Yeah, quiet for the engines off at the aft, but a blast from the bow thruster and it was loud. I'm sure that wasn't in the script, for the first viewing of the yacht.

I guess the captain would only make that mistake once if he wants to keep his job!

I gave up counting after a while 🤪
