The hull is molded out of NanoXcel 2 material, making it significantly lighter (767 lbs.) than previous models and adding to the performance.

Galeon 660 Fly:
4 Cabins for an Owner/Operator
The Galeon 660 Fly has accommodations for six guests below, plus a cabin for two crewmen aft of the engine room. The main deck and the flying bridge are devoted to entertaining lots of guests and enjoying the water. We expect this to be an owner/operator boat in North America, so the crew cabin can be for guests or kids, or be turned into much needed storage.

Sailfish 220 CC:
A Pylon Adds Great Utility
The Sailfish 220 CC is as hardcore as they come when it comes to fishing features. But what about the kids, to say nothing of mom? Why not create more utility in this boat by spending a little extra on a couple of options? The optional, pop-up watersports tow pylon permits the 220 CC to be used for towing watersports – tubers, skiers, wake boarders, knee boarders, and barefooters. Swinging backrests turn the bow seats into comfortable, forward-facing chaise-type seating.
