BLACK SAILS is a 39.95 m Wally 130 high-performance sailing yacht, launched in 2009 by Wally Yachts. With naval architecture by Javier Soto Acebal and exterior styling by Amanda Levete, this unique yacht stands out with her all-black livery and stylish carbon fibre detailing. Hull, superstructure and deck are built in Advanced Carbon Nomex, with a teak deck.

The open deck layout of BLACK SAILS makes good use of her 40-metre length, while an awning system shelters the entire area. The open transom is a veritable terrace on the sea, with easy access to the water via the bathing platform. One of the most striking features of this Wally yacht is the free-standing main deck seating and dining furniture: it provides an exclusive spot for hosting small groups and can be completely removed for hosting larger groups or for racing in regattas.

With such a strong racing pedigree, BLACK SAILS boasts some of the finest sailing equipment. The Hall Spars carbon mast and boom carry a super-high modulus masthead rig with three spreaders, complemented by EC6 carbon standing rigging from Future Fibres and a sail wardrobe by North Sails, Evolution Sails and One Sail (764 m² upwind, 1,497 m² downwind). This high-performance sailing yacht can be transformed from a luxurious cruising yacht into a regatta racer. The last dismasting and service took place in 2024.

The interior of BLACK SAILS has been fitted out to an impeccable standard. Her first refit at German yard Lürssen, carried out in collaboration with Harrison Eidsgaard Design, won the 2011 World Superyacht Award for Best Refit, and a second refit at Hinckley Yachts in 2013 has kept the yacht in immaculate condition ever since. The saloon is aft, the well-equipped galley up front, as is the crew area, accessible from the foredeck. Staffed by a crew of five, this unique yacht accommodates up to 11 guests in 4 cabins.

Meticulously maintained throughout her life, BLACK SAILS benefits from significant upgrades every winter under her current ownership. The 2024 refit brought new lithium service batteries, new engine and generator batteries, new air conditioning units and new keel cylinders, along with a complete sandblasting of the hull followed by a modern treatment. Powered by a 450 HP MAN engine, this Wally yacht cruises at 11 knots with a range of 1,700 nautical miles, and is presented in immaculate condition, ready to put to sea.
