ISA Viper 130 series expands with new 38.8m hull in build

An additional unit in the ISA Viper 130 line is progressing at the Ancona yard of Palumbo Superyachts.

The design, created entirely by Fulvio De Simoni, centres on open-air living and high-speed capability. Built in lightweight composite with carbon elements, the yacht carries a 7.85-metre beam and a reduced draft intended to suit shallower cruising grounds.

Much of the onboard space is concentrated aft, where a transformer platform extends usable space at water level, while terraces along the hull sides broaden the footprint at anchor. Exterior dining and lounge areas are spread across multiple levels, including a covered sundeck with a bar. An outdoor pool forms part of the deck configuration.

Interior spaces are arranged for 10 guests across five cabins on the lower deck, including an owner’s suite, while separate crew quarters accommodate six.

Performance is delivered by three 2,200hp MAN engines working alongside waterjets and a booster system, giving her a projected top speed of 35 knots.

Delivery is scheduled for March 2028.
