The aluminium hull features a 90m² beach club, a 7m indoor swimming pool and a 75m² master stateroom. Able to run almost soundlessly on battery power alone the WIDER 150 attracted attention at a number of potential buyers and received numerous awards from various shows and organisations, including the World Superyacht Awards, World Yachts Trophy and the Monaco Yacht Show/RINA award.
Once M/Y BARTALI has left the shipyard in a couple of weeks, Wider will focus on the continuing construction of WIDER 165 ‘CECILIA’, to be launched in the first quarter of 2018 and is currently on the market for an owner.
