Wajer Yachts Unveils the Wajer 44 S in Ibiza

Amsterdam, August 12, 2024 – The home base of Wajer Yachts in Ibiza, Marina Botafoc, served as the backdrop for the unveiling of the Wajer 44 S, the sporty center console version of the Wajer 44. Designed for those who prefer to stay outdoors, enjoy entertaining groups of friends, and love water sports, the 44 S is the ideal boat.

The fixed roof, which distinguishes the Wajer 44 S from the Wajer 44, covers a large part of the cockpit for that much needed shade during the hot summer months. An electrically retractable sunshade extends the shaded area even further. Sun worshippers will find ample space on the sunbeds at the rear.

The Wajer 44 S, due to its layout and with a length of over 13 meters and a beam of 4 meters, offers plenty of space to move around on board. The ergonomically designed seating area at the foredeck is the perfect spot for an evening drink during sunset. The recessed cockpit and the two facing benches create a cozy setting.

The center console is equipped with a cooktop, faucet, sink, refrigerator, and trash bin. The table in the middle of the ship offers enough space for six guests.

Comfort and Enjoyment

The 44 S is equipped with the famous automatic fender system, just like the Wajer 55. The extended swimming platform combined with the hydraulic ladder makes it even easier to board from the quay or after swimming.

There is space in the bulwark for two electric surfboards, and two Seabobs are stored under the aft hatch. The SUP boards are attached to the roof.

Interior

The cabin, cooled by a powerful air conditioner, features a double bed, a spacious shower, and a toilet. The pantry is equipped with a refrigerator, a sink with hot and cold water, a coffee maker, and an ice maker.

Smart Boating

Just like the Wajer 44, the Wajer 44 S is connected to the Wajer Connectivity App. With this app, the owner can always check the anchor position, turn on the air conditioning, or, for example, deploy the hydraulic swim ladder.

Dries Wajer: "The S version has become an integral part of our model range. It is a popular model among customers who enjoy water sports and love to spend a great day on the water with many friends or family. It was fantastic to see the 44 S received with such enthusiasm."
