Overview
Galeon is a new brand to this channel so I was happy to have this opportunity to discover the Galeon 440 with diesel shaft drive Volvo's.
The impression I was left with after a full day aboard was that this design was done by someone who thinks deeply about how you are going to use the spaces onboard. This is a real floating weekender with many clever ideas for a family that intends on using this as their summer holiday home or Friday to Sunday weekend base.
It's not all great and I discuss some of the ideas I wasn't so hot on over on my Patreon Channel but overall if you are looking for a non-traditional looking boat that is very forward thinking in their approach to design then this could be the pick for you!
I hope this helps you in your research!
