# 10
Galeon 435 GTO
The Galeon 435 GTO packs multiple distinct spaces, each with the ability to transform into different configurations, into a relatively compact dayboat offering triple 600 Mercury outboard speed plus style and comfort
With modern lines that are distinctively Greenline's, the 58 Fly is at once a comfortable coastal cruising yacht offering high-tech hybrid power, more room below, and the promise of long-distance cruising at a remarkably low cost.
The Sea Ray SPX 210 is the most affordable boat in this venerable series, yet she retains many premium features including soft non-slip decking, convertible two-tone seating, digital dash with a standard 7" (17.78 cm) Simrad® touchscreen display and SmartCraft® Connect.
The Yamaha VX Cruiser HO with new 1.9 L Yamaha 16-valve engine lived up to expectations for high-output performance in our tests, but at the dock, she was a pussy cat with Yamaha's intuitive forward and reverse system.
The Riviera 58 Sports Motor Yacht (SMY) is a multi-faceted yacht designed and built in Australia. Its blue water heritage shows through as this yacht gobbles up rough seas while running quietly and smoothly. Her flybridge-only helm design makes her salon/galley roomy and airy. She is as fine mechanically as any yacht in her class.
The Formula 457 CCS is an all-American dayboat with triple Mercury 600-hp outboards to whisk an extended family from Miami to Nassau for lunch, and she can also function as a comfortable overnighter/weekender complete with air-conditioned accommodations for four.
The North Pacific 590 is a semi-custom trawler that blends modern and classic lines, and her impressive beam (18’4” (5.58 m) beam gives her lots of living space for extended cruising.
With a 14’7” (4.44 m) beam, the 47 Molokai has the cockpit space of a big sport fisherman, but with quad outboard power, she’s much faster (69.5 mph!) and more capable of shallow water explorations.
