| Who owns a Wally 118?
And how many of these beasts have been built in the world, or is there only one?

| 3 wally powers
I believe there are 3, don't quote me but I am sure I heard somewhere that they have manufactured 3 hulls in the composite specialists where they were built.

Really? Hmmm... if there are 2 others they are somewhere very secret. I mean, a Wallypower isn't exactly something you could hide. There's no mention on the Wally site about others that I ever saw either. Wally is pretty open about every yacht they make... you can find pics and plans of just about every single one at wally.com but there's only mention of one 118'.

I never heart about 3 Wally Powers. Perhaps 1 exists and 2 yachts are in build....

Seems to be right , a post on this site suggests one other hull waiting for an owner. http://******************.zeroforum....2&postid=15661 |

It makes good business sense to fabricate a couple of hulls, finish one, and leave the others in storage until someone signs a contract. That seems to be what they're doing with the Wally 80 sail yachts.

It seems to become a trend. If I remember right, Vitters did the same.
By the way, I like your signature, Kevin. It's from a movie right?
