Pardo GT52 – UK Premiere
Italian by design, the epitome of elegance, space and performance, Argo Yachting is to premiere the Pardo GT52 at the British Motor Yacht Show. The innovative Pardo GT 52 is positioned between the Walkaround and Endurance range, appealing to those owners seeking more space and comfort than current walkaround models without sacrificing performance. Stern doors can be opened completely (similar to the Endurance 60); the swim platform is larger, for housing a tender or personal watercraft; and the roof on the GT52 has a semi-open mode. The cockpit dining and sunbathing spaces are expanded, and the below decks space is more flexible.
Pardo 43
The Pardo 43 is designed for the discerning owner who appreciates quality, design and comfort. Thanks to its unique hull shape and exceptional engineering, the Pardo 43 is also renowned for both outstanding performance and speed on the water. Her V-hull has a 16° deadrise angle at the transom and more than 50° at the bow, which ensures greater stability in all sea conditions as well as easy manoeuvrability and faster planing.
Her large hull volume and ample headroom mean that the interior is welcoming and spacious. The open space consists of two large cabins; the owner’s cabin at the bow which includes a generous double bed, ample storage and plenty of natural light. Aft, a wide storage area can be turned into a second cabin with twin beds and further storage.
Galeon 405 HTS
On the main deck, the spacious saloon features a starboard side bar, where most of your guests will naturally be drawn to. At the helm, the large windows and windshield offer full 360-degree views of your surroundings. At the bow is the settee area, which is made for entertaining and, with a press of a button, you can enjoy the breeze as the tarpaulin roof opens into the wide opening sunroof. Below deck, you’ll find a fully equipped galley, two cabins, two bathrooms and plenty of space for storage throughout.
Galeon 400 FLY
Galeon’s compact 4th generation yacht, offers Beach Mode – optimising the use of the deck space. This model brings manoeuvrability and stability on the water. The sofa and table in the aft cockpit can be converted into an additional sundeck, and there’s further outdoor space on the foredeck. There are two full-sized cabins below deck, with the owner’s cabin aft and two separate bathrooms for you and your guests. Cabins come with additional storage space and standing height too, ensuring a comfortable and practical stay onboard.
Galeon 560 FLY
Enjoy an abundance of space on all decks and a plethora of windows that ensure a well-lit interior. On the main deck you’ll find the helm with companion seating, there’s a u-shaped dining and relaxing area with additional sofa opposite, leading to the galley aft. Uniquely, the side bulwarks fold down to provide additional al-fresco space and the twin dining area aft can face in or out towards the sea thanks to a sliding back rest. For the best views, the flybridge boasts a dining area, wet bar and grill. Three cabins and two bathrooms provide accommodation for six. The owner’s quarters are located amidships with plenty of space for storage and a private bathroom.
Chris-Craft Launch 28GT
