FG STAR is a 2021 Galeon flybridge motor yacht, a little over twenty metres of modern Italian influenced design built for a family or a small group who want space and speed without the scale or cost of a larger hull. She carries eight guests across four cabins with a crew of two, which keeps her relaxed and informal while still delivering the finish and the clever use of space that Galeon has become known for. She reads as fresh and current from the deck to the cabins, a yacht for warm days spent in and out of the water.
Her defining trick is the way she opens up at anchor. Fold out terraces drop down from both sides of the main deck, turning the side decks into broad balconies that sit just above the water, so the whole living area suddenly reaches out over the sea. It is the feature that sets a Galeon apart, and on FG STAR it gives a group two extra platforms to lounge, step off for a swim or simply watch the water go by, a genuine change in how a day at anchor feels.
She is quick, and that shapes the week. With a top speed around thirty knots she can cover ground when the plan calls for it, reaching a further bay for lunch or beating the weather back to a sheltered harbour, then settle to an easy cruise when there is nowhere in particular to be. For a group that likes to see a stretch of coast rather than sit in one spot, that pace turns a week into a proper exploration of the islands and towns within reach.
Her outdoor spaces are well judged for her size. The flybridge up top carries seating, sunbathing and a helm with a commanding view, the natural place to gather on the run between anchorages and for drinks as the light fades. Forward, a set of sun pads on the foredeck gives a quieter corner to lie out away from the main flow, and aft the main deck opens to a shaded cockpit with a dining table close to the water.
Inside, the main deck is one bright, contemporary space finished in pale timber and soft neutral fabrics, with glass that keeps the sea in view from every seat. A comfortable lounge sits aft with the lower helm to one side, and forward the room runs into an open galley and a dinette, so the cooking stays part of the day rather than hidden away. The glass doors fold back to join the salon to the aft cockpit, so she works just as well on a cool evening indoors as on a warm day with the deck and salon run together.
Accommodation is arranged across four cabins for eight guests, with a double forward, a further double aft and a twin, each finished in the same warm, neutral style with its own bathroom and good natural light. The consistent finish makes her a practical choice for a family with children as readily as for a group of friends, and the cabins are calm and well proportioned, so no one is left with the short straw.
She is well suited to Croatia and the wider East Mediterranean, cruising the pine covered islands and clear water of the Adriatic at a pace that suits the day, dropping the hook for a swim at lunch and tying up somewhere lively for the evening. For a family or a small group who want Italian flair, real speed and the clever fold out terraces of a Galeon, FG STAR is a crisp, comfortable and genuinely welcoming choice.
