The first ISA Viper 130 sold to an American owner is scheduled for launch this summer and is set to make her debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2026
The shipyard has decided to build the second hull on spec, which will shorten the delivery time for her future owner, as they will be offered a ready-made vessel.
Both the exterior and interior of the ISA Viper 130 designed by Fulvio De Simoni Studio feature a combination of all the latest trends. The pure graphics of the exterior, versatile deck layout, elegant colour palette and excellent performance characteristics make this boat desirable and much in demand.
The composite and carbon-fibre hull will be robust and lightweight: with a length of 38.8 m and a beam of 7.85 m, the vessel’s draft is just 1.55 m. Three MAN engines of 2,200 hp each, paired with two waterjets and an MJP booster can deliver a top speed of 35 knots, which is more suitable for a speedboat rather than a yacht of this size. The combination of metallic grey and anthracite blue further highlights the sporty character of the boat.
The Viper 130’s design features attract attention immediately. Firstly, one should mention the three-level beach club, which, together with the fold-down terraces, boasts the area typical of a far larger yacht. There is everything you need for outdoor recreation, starting from the swim platform, a sunpad, sofas and a full-fledged dining area shaded by the sundeck’s overhang. The galley is located between the saloon and the outdoor area. The up/down darkened glass panel allows for a flexible use of space: from a fully enclosed galley ensuring guests’ privacy to show cooking and informal cocktail parties, when the panel also serves as a bar.
The Viper 130’s pool, which is normally located in the cockpit, has been moved to the foredeck. The garage, which can accommodate a 5-metre tender, is on the starboard side.
The upper deck with a hardtop offers even more options for entertainment: in addition to the second helm station, there is another bar, a lounge area with sofas, sunpads and a dining area.
The interior layout is unusual, too. To maximize interior volumes, the forward side deck has been kept only on the port side. Amidships, near the saloon, there is an opening balcony providing a privileged view even from the inside.
There are five guest cabins below deck, including the full-beam master suite and three crew cabins.
