    I’ve been spending time on an older Galeon 530 and this is like an updated version of it with the right updates, for example that the galley is moved to the back.
    Also, awesome to see Jack back doing more reviews 👍🏻 Was sad to see you leave Motorboat & Yachting.

    I always looked forward to your reviews previously especially the sea trials as they stood out from anything else that was on offer.But this has taken it to a new level, keep them coming Jack. In my opinion this is by far the most practical, informative and in depth review channel available.

    Love Galeon, its the swiss army knife of boats...Its just so innovative. One talks about "smartphones" well The Galeon 500 is definitely a smart yacht. I personally have a Windy GM37 but seriously considering a change. Thanks for all your fabulous videos, great work guys... Huge thumbs up👍

    2:08 I've always thought with blind spots like that it would be easy to have a camera with an 8 inch screen attached to the mullion to make the mullion virtually invisible. 👍❤️🇬🇧

    Great to see a review that includes a sea trial. I have to admit the 500 Fly is my ambition boat as it seems to punch well above its weight in terms of what it offers for the money. There are some great deals too - I saw some offers earlier in the year starting around 750k, which is a lot of boat for the money. You asked for feedback on your vid and the only thing I could add is a very small thing, and is that you are quite serious, so maybe have a few lighter moments and show more of your personality (not a criticism though). Also there were a couple of spaces I'd have liked a closer look at e.g. the sun pads at the front of the fly bridge, the tender garage and maybe a more detailed shot of the saloon. Great stuff! Subscribed! Keep 'em coming!!

    I'm seriously considering this model. I like the turntable seating feature. I agree. It should have a larger refrigerator for long cruises.

    When you compare this to say Princess and Fairline it seems cheap, ok i know they're both premium brands but still, this isn't that far behind, and it makes up for it with innovation.

    I believe this boat has 3 stern options
    1. Rotating seat, Mini Jet storage (shown)
    2. Fixed seating, Crew Cabin (mentioned)
    3. Fixed sunpad, Full-Sized Tender Garage (the one I'd pick)

  • @origin178

    Please don't add music in the background! It's pointless, distracting (especially when you're talking), and spoils the atmosphere of being on the boat. Otherwise a great demo, especially in Alum Bay.

      @timlamb274 9 місяців тому

      Ignore that dude! The music is fine and adds a high class touch to the video making it appear to be more if a production. The background music sells the video as a far more upscale product!
