Alexander Marine as exclusive importers of Galeon Yachts are pleased to present the all-new Galeon 480 FLY model to the Australian and New Zealand market. Galeon Yachts, synonymous with precise craftsmanship and uncompromisable success in yacht manufacturing, proudly presented the debut of its latest marvel, the 480 FLY, at the prestigious 2024 Cannes Yachting Festival. The 480 FLY combines cutting-edge design with luxurious details, offering the perfect vessel for memorable on-water experiences. Starting at the transom, the yacht features a hydraulic swim platform, making water access a breeze whether you're diving in or launching your tender. The platform is equipped with an integrated swim ladder on the starboard side making it easily accessible for all ages, and for those who love to cook while enjoying the sea breeze, an optional grill is integrated into the transom. Stepping up into the spacious cockpit via either port or starboard stairways, you'll find one of two versatile seating arrangements. Choose between a fixed U-shaped aft bench seat for comfortable lounging, or the exciting swiveling U-shaped aft bench seat that rotates 180 degrees to face completely aft - this option includes a tender garage adding convenience to your aquatic adventures. Galeon Yachts are renowned for their innovative Beach Mode, which features a deployable balcony to port that extends the cockpit. The fold-out balconies features glazing so guests can see the water below their feet and railings for added safety. The sliding doors to port and starboard allow for a pop-up extended galley counter with bar stools and an extended saloon settee creating additional dinettes. Stepping inside, the expansive door opens the entire width, blurring the line between inside and out. The layout includes a practical aft galley to port with an L-shaped design, featuring an under-bench refrigeration, a two-element induction cooktop, a combination microwave oven, and ample storage, making meal prep a breeze. Forward of the galley, the U-shaped dining settee to port provides plenty of seating around a height-adjustable table, which can convert into an additional berth if needed. For entertainment, a Hi/Lo TV discreetly tucks away when not in use, keeping the space open and uncluttered. At the helm to starboard, you'll find a bench seat that can fold up, giving you the flexibility to stand while navigating. Equipped with Raymarine electronics, the helm is designed for both style and function, ensuring that every journey is smooth and enjoyable. Below deck, the yacht features a three-cabin layout, offering comfortable accommodations for up to six guests. The midship master cabin boasts an island queen bed, a private ensuite, and ample storage, including a large hanging wardrobe. A sofa to port adds to the luxurious feel, and an optional TV ensures you can relax in style. The forward VIP cabin features a centreline queen bed and shares access to a bathroom that doubles as a day head. Complete with two hanging wardrobes and a vanity, this cabin exudes sophistication. The starboard guest cabin is designed with single over-and-under berths, perfect for additional guests or family members. Moving up to the flybridge, a set of stairs leads from the cockpit to this elevated social space. An aft L-shaped settee surrounds a fold-out table, perfect for alfresco dining or enjoying drinks with friends. Forward, another U-shaped settee provides additional seating near the upper helm, which reflects the same lower helm Raymarine electronics. A well-appointed wet bar to starboard includes a sink, fridge, ice maker, and optional grill, ensuring that refreshments are always close at hand. A bimini provides shade, ensuring the flybridge remains a comfortable retreat even in the midday sun. At the bow, U-shaped sun loungers with adjustable backrests offer the perfect spot for relaxation with the option to have a shade bimini for our warm climate. A hatch provides direct access to the VIP cabin below. With its perfect blend of innovation, luxury, and functionality, the Galeon 480 FLY offers an unparalleled on-water experience, making it the ideal yacht for those seeking adventure and elegance in equal measure. Please note: Alexander Marine is the official Galeon Yachts dealer for Australia and New Zealand.

Commissioned for a long distance trip that took her from California to Alaska, "Abina" is a beautiful example of how the Kadey-Krogen 39 is a proven design when it comes to exceptional seaworthiness in luxurious comfort. Fresh water kept, every element of this vessel is superior. Powered by a single John Deere 115hp diesel housed in an engine room/work shop space that offers standing headroom upon entry, these boats have unbeatable fuel efficiency capable of a cruising range of 2,400 nautical miles at 7.5 knots. The full displacement hull provides stability in all kinds of sea states yet she remains easily maneuverable thanks to the unique articulating rudder, large prop and bow thruster. The full walk-around deck design provides safety for the crew while they access the bow or come back to the fully enclosed aft deck. Stepping inside the interior one instantly is drawn to the stunning teak woodwork found throughout this vessel. The main salon is surrounded by windows with ample seating for guests around a custom table that converts to a double berth if needed. The gourmet galley is a marine chefs dream as not only is it tastefully equipped with a large fridge/freezer, propane stove and oven, corian countertops and storage capable of provisioning a lengthy voyage with ease, it is positioned on the same level as the main salon to keep the conversation flowing while meal preparations are underway. Stepping up into the pilothouse that provides fantastic visibility, the interior helm station is well appointed with easily visual gauges and electronics monitoring ship performance. Access to both port and starboard decks is provided by Freeman aluminum dutch doors and an additional single pilot berth is easily converted if needed. Down below the master cabin and head with separate shower is the ultimate in Captains quarters with a large centreline berth, tons of storage and easy access to the engine room if needed. Surveyed in April 2025 and available with your choice of moorage at our Sidney location or near Steveston (with marina approval), Abina is available to view by appointment on our Sales Dock at Westport Marina. Please contact our Vancouver Island Sales Office at 250-656-5832 to schedule a showing of this impressive vessel.
