Broker Overview

This 2017 Galeon 510 Skybridge presents a compelling opportunity for a buyer seeking a well-built, versatile motor yacht. Galeon has established a strong reputation for craftsmanship, particularly in the 40-70 foot segment, offering a robust build quality engineered for demanding conditions. This vessel is powered by twin Volvo Penta D11 670hp diesel engines, providing reliable performance for coastal cruising and island hopping. The Skybridge design is a standout feature, offering excellent visibility and an additional helm station, which can be fully enclosed electronically when not in use, protecting electronics and upholstery. This specific model features a practical three-cabin, two-head layout, a spacious salon, and an aft galley, making it well-suited for family cruising or entertaining. The large aft storage area, accessible from the transom, is a significant advantage for gear-intensive activities like diving or fishing, and also provides convenient additional engine room access. While the seller is motivated due to health issues and open to offers, including smaller boat trades, this 510 represents a strong value proposition in its class. Buyers should note the presence of bow and stern thrusters, which greatly enhance maneuverability.

Expert Review

The Galeon 510 Skybridge is a well-regarded vessel known for its solid construction and innovative features. The build quality, originating from Poland, is generally above average for its class, offering a robust hull capable of handling varied sea states. Sea-keeping is predictable and comfortable, particularly with the Volvo Penta D11s providing ample power. For a buyer, this vessel offers good value for money, especially considering its versatile layout and unique Skybridge. During a survey, pay close attention to the condition of the electronic Skybridge retraction mechanism and ensure all systems, particularly the thrusters, are fully functional. Examine the engine service records carefully. Comparable alternatives might include certain Azimuts or Princess models of similar size, though the Galeon often provides a more competitive price point for its feature set. This 510 is a capable cruiser that merits serious consideration.

The craftsmanship of the woodwork and quality of this boat's build are Best In Class! Built in Poland, and engineered for the Baltic Sea, the Galeon Yacht Brand has made a name for itself in the 40-70' yacht segment for its quality and value for the price.

The Skybridge on this model offers exceptional views and visibility when underway and docking, and its electronically retractable cover, allows you so seal it up with the push of a switch to keep it protected when not in use. The retractable closure is excellent for keeping condensation from forming on your upper bridge cushions, and protects the entire helm from the elements. The additional Skybridge fully-equipped helm station offers matching electronic controls and equipment as the lower helm station, so also adds a nice element of safety and redundancy when on longer trips down to The Bahamas. This boat also features a massive aft storage area, accessible from transom hatch off of the swim platform that is ideal for storing dive tanks, scuba and fishing gear, or can be converted to a crew quarters. It also gives additional engine room access through an internal doorway.

2017 Galeon 510 Skybridge is in nice condition. Its is powered with twin Volvo Penta D11 670hp diesel engines, 3 cabin and 2 head layout. It has a spacious salon, galley aft, dual helm stations, Raymarine electronics, sliding port and starboard side windows, and retractable sunroof, bow and stern thrusters and lots more. Both sides of the boat are deployable and drop down via hydraulic actuators to increase the boat's beam by an additional 5'. Bar stools can be inserted on the portside extension and the aft portside sliding window moves forward to allow a galley counter extension to be opened for pass through bar and meal service. Starboard aft sliding window and swing backrest on couch across from the galley reverses for a great starboard couch facing outwards. The Main Salon aft sliding doors retract and stack to open up access to and from the aft deck wrap-around seating area to the galley. Both port and starboard windows at helm and forward in the salon drop down electronically and when combined with electronically retractable sunroof in salon, give an open airflow and spaciousness that is unseen in any boat in this class size. This boat offers excellent flexibility/access to take advantage of sea breezes and open up the interior to outdoors. Seller is looking for offers!
