Galeon 470 SKY

A sleek, exciting profile introduces the Galeon 470 SKY, which is as much a head-turner as it is a formidable contender in the mid-size cruising sector.

“The Galeon 470 SKY offers the transformative features of an express cruiser with the do-it-all spirit of a flybridge,” says Galeon Brand Manager Bob Burke.

To that point, the company has engineered and designed the boat with an arm’s-length list of items specifically intended to enhance your total on-water experience. There are expandable main decks aft, which, when deployed, widen her beam a good 4 extra feet at anchorage. Enhancing the “Beach Mode” experience are a pair of stools on the port side and a hinged bar with access to the galley. That galley is as good as it gets on a boat of this size with enough space and appliances for quick snacks or a sumptuous alfresco dinner.

Continuing with this theme is the transom seating and hi-low dining table, and a special pull-out grill to starboard on the swim platform. Topsides, the open bridge deck features lots of seating and an electrically operated cover, which, when activated, closes off the entire area.

The glass door into the salon opens fully making the interior space one with the aft end. The expansive salon presents fine walnut finish — a hallmark of Galeon’s ability with fit and finish — ample seating areas, helm to starboard, and centerline stairs leading below. Here, a three-stateroom, two-head layout offers a VIP forward, over-under berths to starboard and a full-beam primary suite amidships, all surrounded by well-found décor and fine woodwork.

“This vessel employs all of Galeon’s hard-earned design experience and combines it with a forward-thinking ethos that makes this yacht unlike any other,” Burke says. “Meeting the demands for innovation and excellence, the result is unparalleled performance, seaworthiness and style.”
