The Galeon 800 FLY is the Polish shipyard’s largest model and made its European debut at this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival. With an overall length of 25.71 metres and a beam of 5.89 metres, this flybridge yacht offers space and amenities usually reserved for larger vessels. The hull length is 23.68 metres with a hull width of 5.79 metres, and the maximum draught is 1.74 metres. The yacht is certified to CE Category B and can accommodate up to 18 people on board.
Exterior areas and cockpit
The aft cockpit provides space for socialising on deck. Two tables with seating allow up to twelve guests to dine together, whilst a hydraulic bathing platform makes it easy to launch and retrieve a dinghy. The foredeck serves as an additional outdoor area with a U-shaped sofa, a table and a large sunbathing area. Movable seats allow for different layouts depending on how the space is used.
The flybridge as the main attraction
The flybridge spans the entire width of the yacht and forms a central living area. Two C-shaped sofas with wet bars create separate lounge areas, whilst spacious sun loungers complete the layout. The upper helm station, with two seats, offers good all-round visibility when manoeuvring. The combination of the helm station, seating areas and sunbathing areas makes the flybridge suitable for use both whilst underway and in port.
Main deck with saloon and galley
The main deck is designed as a continuous living area. On the starboard side of the saloon is a relaxation area; on the port side are a sofa with a pull-out television and a bar. Further forward is the fully equipped galley with all the appliances needed for on-board catering; opposite is a large dining table. The navigation station, with two seats, is situated right next to the access to the lower deck.
Cabins and accommodation
The lower deck features four guest cabins plus a separate crew cabin. The owner’s cabin is situated amidships across the full beam and has an en-suite bathroom. A VIP cabin is located in the bow, whilst two further guest cabins complete the accommodation, each with its own en-suite bathroom. The crew cabin in the stern ensures a clear separation between guests and crew.
