GALEON 53

A 2025 Galeon that opens up on both sides

GALEON 53 is a 2025-built Galeon motor yacht kept at Riverlanding on the Miami River. Her defining feature is a pair of fold-down terraces: both sides of the hull open outward and bar stools snap into place, turning the main deck into a waterside beach club. The effect is a boat that feels considerably larger than 53 feet, which is why she is a favourite for entertaining groups of up to 13.

Accommodation

Three staterooms sleep four guests — a king cabin, a queen cabin and a twin over-under cabin — served by two en-suite bathrooms. There are no separate crew quarters, so she is best suited to day charters and short overnight runs.

Deck spaces

Beyond the fold-out terraces, the yacht carries a large salon, a fully equipped galley and generous aft and bow lounging. Twin engines give her the speed to reach the Keys or Bimini comfortably inside a day.

On board

Wi-Fi, a BBQ grill, snorkelling gear for four, a floating water mat and floating toys come as standard, and jet ski rental can be arranged locally at $175 per hour. A complimentary drone photo shoot is included in the charter rate.

Cruising grounds

Summer and winter she works the Miami River, Fort Lauderdale, North Miami, the Florida Keys and Nassau in the Bahamas.
