Galeon 650 Skydeck Review (2022 Edition) by Aquaholic

On Deck

The aft cockpit has a wonderful seating arrangement that wraps around the area, and a large table for dining under the overhang. 

The flybridge has a sporty, sleek look and a very innovative design. The seats, helm and other parts of the flybridge can be adjusted down and then powered shut, creating a flat roof. This unique feature is especially appealing to the owner, who keeps the boat in the rainy climate of Sweden.

The saloon has a very open feel due to the massive window and sliding door, creating a connection between the interior and exterior areas.

Another wonderful feature with innovative design, is the drop balconies on the sides, which open up to reveal bar areas that link with the interior. The galley area features multiple fridges and plenty of storage, including a rising TV for entertainment. In the bar area there is a 55-inch television, a table on telescopic legs that can be converted into a day bed, and a helm area with a side door for direct access to the deck.

On the lower deck, there is a large amount of storage available and light-filled cabins, a typical feature of Galeon yachts. There is flexibility to the layout, including a three-cabin layout that features a massive owner's cabin.

The crew cabin, which doubles as an overflow area with laundry facilities, has twin beds, and its own toilet and shower.

In the engine room, the Galeon 650 Skydeck has a pair of Man 1200 horsepower engines that provide a top speed of 35 knots. At a cruising speed of 25 knots, the boat can achieve a range of 250 nm.

Nick ends the tour by praising Galeon's innovative design and customization options. He's particularly impressed by the flybridge, which offers a new level of adjustability and protection from the elements. The Galeon 650 Skydeck, with its balance of luxury and innovation, clearly leaves a strong impression.
