Galileo
Timeless elegance on the waves — your private classic sailing masterpiece
Discover a rare masterpiece of maritime heritage: Galileo, the iconic 1989 two-mast ketch sailing superyacht, masterfully built by Palmer Johnson and designed by the legendary Sparkman & Stephens for effortless world cruising.
Her timeless aluminum hull glides across oceans with grace, while the sophisticated interior — crafted by renowned designer John Munford and thoughtfully refreshed in recent refits — envelops up to 6 discerning guests in three luxurious, en-suite cabins.
Fully crewed by a dedicated team of 6 professionals, Galileo offers an intimate escape where classic elegance meets modern comfort: expansive teak decks for al fresco lounging, a welcoming salon perfect for quiet evenings or formal dining, and an array of indulgent amenities including watersports toys, satellite connectivity, and a personal chef creating bespoke culinary journeys.
More than a vessel, Galileo is an invitation to slow time — to feel the gentle rhythm of wind and waves, to savor privacy amid breathtaking horizons, and to experience the quiet opulence of a bygone era, perfectly preserved for today's most refined adventures. Step aboard, and let the sea rewrite your story.
