About this tender

Wally 50X - what we know.

The wallypower50X is the build we ask Wally for when a programme needs genuine outboard performance inside a hull that still reads as a proper wallypower. At 15.4m LOA it sits between the wallytender range and the wallypower58X, and Wally has been deliberate about borrowing from both: the taut deck lines of the power series, combined with the more open cockpit and aft deck architecture that the wallytender buyers know well. The result is a platform that adapts to a day-boat brief or a short coastal passage without looking like a compromise.

The 'X' suffix is Wally's shorthand for outboard optimisation, and the 50X takes that seriously. A notched transom accepts four Mercury outboards rated to 500 hp each in the optional Racing V8 500R configuration, giving a verified top speed of 54 knots and a 280 nm range at cruise. Dial back to the standard four-unit Mercury Verado V10 425 hp package and you still have 48 knots and 320 nm - numbers that cover most Mediterranean itineraries without a fuel stop. Unladen displacement of 13,500 kg keeps the power-to-weight honest.

Below decks, the 50X carries a two-berth cabin and a shower room, so the boat works as a standalone overnight run rather than purely as a chase tender. The modular deck layout adds further flexibility: the source material references both standard and optional deck configurations, which means captains can configure the cockpit around a water-toy deployment brief or a guest-comfort brief without structural changes. Classification is CE-B and F, certified by RINA, and the boat carries twelve persons on board.

Highlights

Built for the work.

The four details we'd point out first to a captain who hasn't seen one on the water yet.

01

Four-outboard transom notch

The 50X is built around a purpose-engineered transom notch that accepts four Mercury outboards. In the standard Verado V10 425 hp fit that is 1,700 hp combined; with the optional Racing V8 500R package it rises to 2,000 hp. Both configurations keep direct, natural water access at the stern uncompromised.

02

54-knot top speed with Racing package

Wally quotes 54 knots top speed with four Mercury Racing V8 500R outboards and a 280 nm range at cruising speed. The standard Verado fit returns 48 knots and extends range to 320 nm, giving owners a real choice between peak performance and passage efficiency without changing the hull.

03

2,800-litre fuel capacity

A 2,800-litre fuel tank is large for a 15.4m outboard day boat and is the principal reason the 50X can quote 320 nm at cruise on the standard engine fit. It also gives the Racing-package boat meaningful range at moderate throttle settings, keeping the vessel useful across a full day of water-sport operations.

04

Modular deck for multiple operational profiles

Wally offers both standard and optional deck layouts for the 50X, with separate plan drawings for each. The more open cockpit and aft deck borrowed from the wallytender series means the configuration can be adapted to guest transport, water-toy deployment, or coastal cruising without structural modification.

05

RINA CE-B classification

The wallypower50X is classified CE-B and F by RINA S.p.A., Italy's independent classification society. CE-B covers offshore conditions up to Beaufort 8 and significant wave heights to 4m, providing the certification baseline owners and captains need for Mediterranean and broader coastal deployment.

Questions, answered

Before you enquire.

What is the difference between the wallypower50X and the standard wallypower50?
The 'X' designation indicates outboard propulsion optimisation. The 50X has a purpose-built transom notch for four Mercury outboards and a more open cockpit and aft deck layout influenced by the wallytender series. The standard wallypower50 uses a different propulsion arrangement. Both share the wallypower family's visual language but are distinct platforms.
How many engines does the wallypower50X take, and what are the options?
The 50X is fitted with four outboard engines. The standard specification is four Mercury Verado V10 425 hp units, totalling 1,700 hp. The optional upgrade is four Mercury Racing V8 500R units at 500 hp each, producing 2,000 hp combined and raising top speed from 48 to 54 knots per Wally's published data.
What range can owners expect at cruising speed?
Wally quotes 320 nm at cruising speed with the standard four-unit Verado V10 425 hp fit, drawing on the 2,800-litre fuel capacity. The optional Racing V8 500R package reduces range slightly to 280 nm at its higher cruising speed of 36 knots. Both figures are manufacturer-stated preliminary data.
What classification does the wallypower50X hold?
The boat is classified CE-B and F by RINA S.p.A. CE-B covers offshore use in conditions up to Beaufort 8 and significant wave heights to 4m, which is the standard coastal and Mediterranean deployment classification for a vessel of this type. The data are listed as preliminary by Wally.
Can the wallypower50X accommodate overnight guests?
Yes. The 50X includes a cabin for two persons and a dedicated shower room below decks, making it viable for short overnight passages or weekend coastal use. It is not a pure day boat, though the twelve-person on-board capacity and modular deck layout mean it also functions effectively as a day-use tender or water-sport platform.
Is the deck layout fixed, or can it be adapted to different operational needs?
Wally offers both standard and optional deck layout configurations for the 50X. The open cockpit and aft deck arrangement can be adapted to suit guest transport, water-toy operations, or coastal cruising. Buyers should discuss the specific layout options with Wally or their broker at the order stage.

Wally

Monaco

Wally is a Monaco-headquartered yacht brand founded in 1994 by Italian entrepreneur Luca Bassani. The house built its reputation on carbon fibre construction and minimalist design across both sail and power, becoming the only yachting brand to win the Compasso d'oro twice - in 2004 and 2008. In 2019 Wally joined the Ferretti Group; all current builds come out of the Group's facilities in Italy, with the Wallytender line produced at Forlì and larger superyachts at CRN in Ancona.

In the superyacht tender and chase-boat segment, the wallytender line is what we turn to first. Introduced in 2001 as a chase platform for the sailing fleet and later for the 118 WallyPower, the range now runs from the wallytender43 (13.2m, 40 knots) up to the wallytender48 and wallytender48X (14.9m, 55 knots). The flagship 48X carries four Mercury Verado V8 450R outboards combining for 1,800 hp; the engines are split in pairs to retain a hydraulic passerelle and swim ladder on the centreline. Folding aft bulwarks extend the deck area at anchor, the deep-V hull handles offshore conditions with composure, and the outboards tilt up to 70cm draft for shallow-water work.

The design language is consistent across every hull: flush surfaces, concealed hardware, exposed carbon fibre detailing inside and out, and a single below-deck cabin. We'd put it alongside Vanquish and Pershing in terms of finish ambition, at a specification that is genuinely purpose-built for chase and day-boat duty rather than garage stowage.
