True aficionados of luxury and exclusivity often seek the thrill of owning high-speed, expensive yachts.

First Yacht extends an invitation to experience our exceptional yacht brokerage services in Dubai.
World Record Holder: Wally Power 118
The Wally Power 118, an ultra-modern marvel, holds the title for the fastest yacht globally. Despite being launched in 2003, its unmatched speed and staggering $25 million price tag have kept it without an owner. This vessel set a world record by reaching speeds of up to 111 kilometers per hour (60 knots), a feat unmatched in the yacht world.
Despite its minimalist design and sleek appearance, the Wally Power 118 is powered by three helicopter gas turbines, boasting a total capacity of 16,800 horsepower. This powerhouse allows it to slice through even the stormiest waters at speeds exceeding 40 sea knots, while its pointed stern design ensures smooth navigation without bouncing on the waves.
Features of the Fastest Yacht
The Wally Power 118 is a paragon of tranquility. Its noiseless design, achieved through advanced noise insulation, ensures that passengers experience no discomfort, even at the highest speeds. The yacht's structure is specifically engineered to block sounds and vibrations. Measuring 36 meters in length with a displacement of 95 tons, it can comfortably accommodate up to 12 passengers.
Its cruising range is as impressive as its speed: at 60 knots, the yacht can cover 380 sea miles, and at a steady 9 knots, it can traverse 1,500 miles in an hour.
Internationally acclaimed designer Carl Pickering, from Lazzarini & Pickering, was tasked with the yacht's interior design. He skillfully blended modernity and functionality with elements of loft, minimalism, and high-tech styles. The design harmoniously integrates wooden and metal elements, rectangular windows, and sharp angles with light upholstery shades.
The Wally Power 118 has been recognized with the prestigious Millenium Yacht Design Award and has featured in several popular films, further cementing its iconic status.
