The Wally 94 Open Season is developed from the successful lines of Y3K, while the deck and interior layouts follow the concept of Tiketitan’s.
The outside and inside arrangements are defined by the double cockpit: the traditional one forward the helm stations, and the Terrace on the sea aft.
The construction technology is in advanced composites carbon pre-preg to keep the displacement of the yacht to 42 tons (92,594 lbs).
To improve even further the performance of the yacht, the keel features the trim-tab system to provide for a better lift in upwind sailing.
This 94-foot (29-meter) sloop features only six winches that can be used alternatively for the 105 per cent jib, the halyards, the gannaker and Code 0 sails.
The technological coaming conceals the Magic Trim for the main sail, while the aft section of the slim coach roof stores the retractable dodger.
The Terrace on the sea stores the fold down swimming ladder-passerelle with self-aligning steps.
The paint of Open Season is in a metallic blue petroleum custom colour enhancing the hi-tech content of the yacht.
The hull lines provide for great stability and performance in all conditions: even with the cruising sail configuration, this boat can easily reach 14-16 knots of speed in 11-15 knots of true wind.
The coach roof of Open Season is very slim following the request of the owner to have the deck as flush as possible.
The furling jib provides for a simplified sail handling.
The rig is in PBO and the mast and boom in hi modulus carbon fiber.
The technologically advanced spar features only three spreaders while the boom is V-shaped to allow easy and neat storage of the main sail.
The social cockpit features a six-eight people table for al fresco dining.
The comfortable cushions can be set also on top of the coach roof to convert it into a large sunbathing pad.
Every detail is designed to perfectly integrate with the overall appeal of the yacht, like the air inlets of the engine room.
On deck, Open Season is characterised by the vast Terrace on the sea: this stern arrangement allows for the guests not involved in the manoeuvring to safely move and enjoy the sailing without getting in the way when going from the terrace to the saloon, which has its own companionway access through the ‘wall of mirrors’.
With all the cushions in place, the Terrace on the sea becomes an enormous sun pad to comfortably enjoy open-air living both at anchor and under sail.
The Terrace on the sea can be accessed from the deck through two large and safe steps and from the salon through the aft compaionway.
The blocks and jammers allow the lines to be directed to the different winches.
Open Season features the Wally custom designed and built carbon fiber steering wheels.
The helm stations are equipped with the Wally designed push-button console incorporating all the controls for the sail trimming, the jib furler, the trim tab and the engine handle.
The aft companionway gives access to the Terrace on the sea from the salon.
The main saloon with six-eight people dining table and sofas is located aft and offers direct access to the large open stern.
This outside-inside living concept –where the deck is a continuation of the interior and vice versa - was first introduced by Wally in 1998 with Tiketitan, and then fully exploited with the 118 WallyPower and many other projects.
The owner’s stateroom is forward and has a queen size bed to starboard and a desk-office to port.
The mast foot is cleverly framed by teak wood, becoming a piece of art.

The Wally designed and custom built desk seat folds away to disappear under the table.
The interior styling successfully combines the teak wood of the cabinets and joinery (tables, beds) with the titanex in gold colour of the soles and hull sides.
The owners’ en-suite is at the forward end and features two glass basins, and a large shower cabin. Mirrors increasing the perception of space cover the forward bulwark.
The two identical guest cabins, one on each side, feature a queen size bed and one pullman bed and both have en-suites.
