Where to buy Galeon 470 SKY:
Galeon Yachts
Can’t decide between a classic express cruiser and a flybridge yacht? Galeon’s Skydeck yachts offer a bit of both. They feature a smaller social space for five on the upper deck; the Skydeck folds away under a retractable cover when not in use.
The result is a flybridge yacht with the sleek profile of a sports cruiser. You also get a retractable sunroof over the lower helm area, which gives a more open feel for day cruises.
The 470 SKY is the smallest yacht in the Skybridge line, which goes up to 70 feet. While the upper, open-air social space is a bit smaller on these yachts, the versatility of tucking it away in port seems worth it.
A 2019 470 SKY goes for just under $1 million. A 2024 model will start around $1.1 million, showing good resale value.
Things we like:
-
18-foot cockpit width with terraces extended, plus a pass-through bar to the galley -
Flip-down seat and pull-out grill on the swim platform
-
Canvas cover on Skybridge reduces cleaning and maintenance when not in use
-
Large u-shaped bow seating around a table, backrests fold under seats when not in use
-
Two nice sized double cabin berths
Things we don't like:
-
Smaller upper deck not for everyone
