When the boat is small, space becomes precious. Here are three new 9-10 metre boats that feature original and innovative solutions for more space and top performance with outboards.
3 new highly distinctive 9-10 metre boats
Galeon 325 GTO
The 325 GTO is the first outboard boat from the Polish shipyard Galeon. Its salient feature is that it has a stern available in several versions. The first, classic, is the one with the stern all open and the outboards in the middle. The second is Tony Castro’s “Polish-style” stern, which allows the area above the outboards to be used as a sundeck and the stern bulwarks to be opened. The boat is therefore closed and secure when sailing, but ready to open up like a butterfly as soon as you get to the roadstead.
LOA: 9.99 m – B.max: 3.34 m – Engine: max 2×336 – Passengers: 10 – INFO: galeon.pl
Dromeas D28 WA
It is the affordable walkaround in the interesting and dynamic boat segment. The Dromeas D28 WA is a walkaround with a deep-V double-step hull designed by Adam Younger. It is possible to install one or two outboards with which the boat can reach a speed of over 50 knots, with cruising at over 30 knots. The forward cabin can accommodate two people. From fishing to cruising, this walk-around is meant to be fast and comfortable on sea days or maybe outings and weekends.
LOA: 8.35 m – B.max: 2.60 m – Draft: 0.45 m – Passengers: 7–9 – Cabins: 1 – Berths: 2 – Max speed range: 30–50 kts – Engine (outboard): 200–400 HP – INFO: dromeasyachts.com

All three versions share an exquisite design and outboards for top performance. Maximum power will be two 300 HP Mercury engines, with which the Saxdor 320 will reach a top speed of well over 50 knots with an optimum cruising range of 20 to 40 knots.
