The 560 Fly bridges the gap in Galeon’s portfolio between the award-winning 500 series and the highly innovative 640 and 650 models. This long-awaited model directly addresses the needs of customers who appreciate the technical prowess of the 500 Fly yet desire more space on board, and the bespoke luxury of the 640/650 models, while still maintaining a manageable owner driver size for this three-cabin yacht.
Motor Boat & Yachting, one of the most respected media titles in the yachting industry, announced the winners of the 2025 Motor Boat Awards, recognizing the best motorboats available. Among the elite, the Galeon 560 Fly received a ‘Highly Commended’ distinction in the category of Best Flybridges up to 60ft – testament to its groundbreaking design and outstanding performance.
Key highlights include;
Revolutionary fold-down bulwarks with glass inserts, expanding deck space while offering breathtaking views.
Clever modular layouts, ensuring luxury and versatility for owners and guests.
Unparalleled craftsmanship and innovation, a signature of Tony Castro’s design expertise.
‘You’ve got to hand it to Tony Castro and the team at Galeon Yachts. Every time I think that’s it, there’s no way they can come up with any more brave new ideas for the next boat, they manage to confound me with something that doesn’t just look good but adds real value to the way it’s used. Roll on the next set of innovations!’, says Motor Boat & Yachting’s editor, Hugo Andreae.
Her exterior is highlighted by the abundance of space on both deck and a plethora of windows that promise a well-lit interior. On the flybridge, guests will find two U-shaped, opposite facing relaxing and dining areas – the perfect spot for sunset drinks and dinner with the best views on the marina. Up front there’s a seating area and the upper helm station with a wet bar and grill further back. The large protected canopy area offers uninterrupted space for socialising or just taking in the vistas from the free-standing sun-loungers. Flexible furniture provides a great entertaining space whether during the day or evening.
The main deck comes fitted with the coveted Beach Mode that greatly increases the usable cockpit area and helps it to seamlessly blend with the saloon, port and starboard bars. The aft deck, features a large hydraulic platform that helps with hoisting water toys and allows for easy guest access to the water. While the bow area features a generous sunpad and sofa for guests to enjoy thrilling rides on the waves up front.
