Dark Shadow is a 100 foot (30 meter) sloop designed according to Wally Yacht’s iconic principles of modern design.
Her black hull, towering black mast and dark sails give her a truly iconic profile. The interior is equally exotic with its neat black and white color scheme of black carbon fiber surfaces and white cabinetry. The owner’s cabin is forward and the two twin cabins are aft of the main saloon. All have en-suite bathrooms in which even the shower and tub are carbon fiber. What is particularly impressive about Dark Shadow is that, despite her vast rig and sail area, she can be sailed single-handedly thanks to modern sailing technology and a clever deck design. The main cockpit and sunbathing area over the deckhouse are separated from the helm and winches, allowing guests to enjoy the pleasure of sailing without being hindered by ropes or crew.
