Passenger and fishing boat
Wimbi 24
Also known as Sessy 7M
The same seamless hull, in the shorter size.
The Wimbi 24 comes out of the same mould as the Wimbi 30: the same hull, 6.94 m long, for up to 6 people and the operator. A working boat for fishing, transport and tours.
The price is for the hull with one bench seat, VAT included. Engine, canopy, extra benches and delivery are added to your quote.

The story
The brochure says it in six words: built for versatility, available in two sizes. The Wimbi 24 is the shorter of the two. Same mould, same seamless polyethylene, same reinforced structure.
It comes with one bench seat and takes two more. Add a 25 HP Dayliff outboard for the working day, or a canopy with rain curtains when the passengers are guests.

The Wimbi 30 hull, shorter
It comes from the same mould as the 9.2 m boat, so the section, the side step and the stern are the same.
- 03
Loaded and inspected in Kenya
Engineers from iYacht of Hamburg inspected and operated the 7 m boat in Kenya over two days. A load of about 1.7 tonnes at its centre left no visible deformation, and their statement finds its strength sufficient for the intended use.

Room to add benches
Up to two more bench seats, each a moulded seat on an aluminium frame, fitted at the factory.

Shade for your guests
A marine-grade stainless frame with handrails, a Sauleda acrylic canopy and two side rain curtains.
