The 100โ maxi Galateia is sure to turn heads this year during Les Voiles de St. Barth!
This ultra competitive class, wallycento, is especially desired by savvy owners, and marries technology, speed, and comfort. These super yachts stand apart for their lightness, great stability, and the ability to surf on the waves at high speeds (as high as 25 knots). Their high performance is combined with spacious, comfortable interiors to embraced both racing and cruising.
Galateia is the third boat of its generation, after Hamilton (Judel Vrolijk) and Magic Carpet3 (Reichel Pugh / Wally).
The success of Magic Carpet3, winner of the Wally Annual Trophy in 2014 and the Giraglia race in 2015, convinced the owners to call upon the same naval architect for Galateia (Reichel Pugh). The sailboat thus inherited the same lines as its predecessor, with an open bridge and large pilothouse, while at the same time benefiting from notable improvements to the keel and weight.
Galateia also maintains the modern comfort of this Wally family, with one suite, four double cabins for guests and crew, a living room, and kitchen area.
After a visit to the Caribbean to race in The St Barth Bucket and Les Voiles de St. Barth, Galateia will return to the Mediterranean in spring 2016 to join the Wally Class.
