Starlink installation on Galeon yachts.
Standard and Maritime installs across the Galeon lineup — 305, 325, 335, 375, 405, 425, 460, 510, and 640 series. Hardtop mounting tuned to the brand's design language, hidden cable routing, factory-finish standards.

Polish design, exacting fit, owner-attentive.
Galeon owners notice details. The brand's identity is design — clean lines, integrated hardware, the kind of fit-and-finish that defines the Polish premium-yacht builders alongside Sunseeker and Princess. That standard carries to Starlink: the antenna placement, the mounting hardware, and the cable routing all have to read as factory. We design the install around the boat, not the other way around.
The hardtop is the install hub. Galeon's signature hardtop styling is the cleanest Starlink mount on the boat — flush-mounted, low-profile, forward of radar and any existing satellite or VHF antennas. The Flat High Performance antenna's rectangular form factor sits well on the hardtop's clean planes. Cable routes through the hardtop's existing chase, no surface mounting, no compromise.
Standard is the right kit for the lineup. Galeons in the 305–460 range are coastal and Sound cruisers — owners running Block Island, Newport, the Vineyard, the Bahamas. Standard with a Mobile Priority data plan covers those patterns cleanly. Maritime is reserved for owners running genuine offshore programs (Bermuda, deliveries, charter) on 510+ vessels.
Pre-delivery is often the right timing. A meaningful share of our Galeon work happens at Connecticut dealers and brokers during pre-delivery — boat on the dock, all systems accessible, factory finish still pristine. The install lands before the owner takes possession. We coordinate directly with the dealer or broker.
Hardtop installs, tuned to Galeon design.
The Galeon lineup's hardtop styling is consistent across models, which makes the mount geometry predictable. Two patterns cover most of the work:
- Express cruisers and HTC/HTS models (305 GTO, 325 GTO, 335 HTS, 375 GTO, 405 HTC, 425 HTS).Flat High Performance antenna mounts directly on the hardtop crown, forward of any existing radar, satellite, or VHF antennas. Cable through the hardtop's existing chase, dropped behind the saloon headliner, terminated at the helm router. Photo above shows a 375 install on the hard, mid off-season.
- Flybridge models (460 Fly, 500 Fly, 510 Skydeck, 640 Fly).Antenna on the upper hardtop or the radar arch. Cable run is longer (more headliner to route through), and the install often integrates with a more substantial onboard network — Peplink or Cradlepoint multi-WAN, multiple chartplotters, mesh APs across multiple decks. Larger boats often split across two visits to maintain quality.
Sky-view obstruction on Galeons is rarely an issue — the hardtop sits high enough that the 100-degree sky cone is clear of railings, biminis, and rigging.
Through-deck sealing, headliner-friendly.
Galeon hulls are well-engineered and the cable routing paths are owner-friendly. The hardtop chase typically already carries radar and satellite cabling, so the Starlink cable runs alongside without adding new through-deck penetrations in most cases. Where we do need to fit a new gland, we use marine-rated through-deck hardware with Sika 291 or 3M 4000 sealant — the same hardware Galeon uses from the factory.
Inside the boat, the cable runs behind existing headliners and bulkhead trim, dropped through to the helm or saloon-side router and chartplotter network. Galeons typically ship with substantial onboard electronics — Garmin, Raymarine, or Simrad chartplotters, Peplink or Cradlepoint multi-WAN routers, mesh Wi-Fi covering the saloon and cabins. Helm wires Starlink in as primary WAN to that existing stack. No rip-and-replace.
What it costs.
Three line items: hardware (one-time), service plan (monthly, paid to SpaceX), installation labor (one-time, fixed).
- Standard ($1,595 install) — for the majority of Galeons in the 305–460 range. Flat High Performance antenna, hardtop mount, full network integration with existing router and chartplotter network. Mobile Priority data plan recommendation if cruising Block Island, Newport, the Vineyard.
- Maritime ($2,795 install) — for 510+ Galeons and any boat running genuine offshore programs (Bermuda, deliveries, charter). Ruggedized antenna, global priority data, additional cable routing and redundancy planning.
- Mini ($1,395 install) — rarely the right call on a Galeon. Reserved for owners with a tender or second smaller boat that needs basic connectivity.
