From The Manufacturer

When it comes to innovative features and pure excitement the Galeon 500 Fly has no equal – let yourself be amazed by this ultimate party boat!

Highly customizable, with three distinct aft configurations to choose from, the 500 Fly offers flexibility with cockpit arrangements. Choose between a full-sized garage with a sundeck on top, a classic L-shaped sofa and crew cabin setup or the innovative roto-seat option that includes a compact garage. Best of all – all three will let you take full advantage of the unique beach mode that extends the width of the cockpit to a stunning 5,8 meters by dropping down both the port and starboard sides.

The bow rest area comes with a transformable seating arrangement - a first for a yacht in this segment. A swift, automated system will quickly alter the sundeck into a comfortable seating area and auto-level it to a proper position. An optional, soft top bimini is also available for extra protection.

Up top, the sizable flybridge can be fitted with a wet bar, sundecks and a second helm station for easier maneuvering. With two different garage options and a powerful hydraulic bath platform you can choose between a variety of engaging water paraphernalia. The main deck reveals a closely linked saloon and cockpit areas with a flush floor and sliding side windows. Serve refreshments straight from the galley or even set up an outside bar to your guests amazement. A bright interior of the saloon is also fitted with leisure and dining areas as well as a functional helm station with great visibility.

Down below, three cabins and two bathrooms await the passengers for a total of six berths. The master cabin, located midship, offers a double bed, large wardrobe and a private bathroom. Offer your guests the bow VIP cabin for spectacular night views thanks to a series of skylights. The double guest cabin can be turned into a study, wardrobe or an additional leisure area. All quarters offer standing height and have access to natural light.

Both the IPS and shaft drive options will be available along with a choice of powerful engines and high-tech electronic and navigational equipment.
