NOTABLE FEATURES

• Air conditioning,
• Accommodation for up to 49 guests,
• Extensive sundeck for sunbathing, dining and entertaining together

The traditional, open-plan interiors make use of classic designed to create an atmospheric dinning and relaxation room, where wooden panelling surrounds curtained portholes.

The saloon provides guests with smaller seating areas for more intimate conversation, placing guests around circular sofas in vibrant yellow with large tables and nearby TV screens for entertainment.

The formal dining area differentiates itself from the saloon with a pale blue and grey colour scheme. Using the same format as the lounge, diners are grouped around smaller tables for close conversation. A buffet setup allows each guest to select their preferred cuisine and portion size.

Outside, there is a set of stairs short of the mid-section where guests can board and leave by tender. The main deck aft contains an outdoor lounging area close to the water, while the upper deck provides guests with a second place for taking in the views under a removable bimini shade.

Up on the sundeck, guests have a choice of seating to dine alfresco, with sun umbrellas for greater shade, while the middle section is filed with sun loungers for all guests to gather together and socialise. Fold-away deck chairs and hampers can also be placed within this area to create informal places to dine and drink in the sunshine. Towards the bow, the deck is slightly raised for greater views for guests to observe their surroundings.

Sailing yacht GALILEO uses 2 x Caterpillar 855hp engines to reach a cruising speed of 11 knots and a top speed of 13 knots.
