Keal Over, a 2019 Palm Beach GT50, is a performance cruiser sized for the cruising couple. Stay out all weekend, stay out all week. Keal Over has a max speed of 40-plus knots with a range of 350 nautical miles, making it ideal for island hopping or weekend cruises with friends and family. Keal Over’s owners are asking $1.499 million.  

“Palm Beach maximizes salon space with a galley-down design. There’s a head with a shower that’s twice the size I’d expect to see on a boat of this nature. The two staterooms are similarly spacious. While many builders would try to add a third stateroom, Palm Beach instead kept the interior areas relatively open. It’s a smart move on a yacht that’s most likely to be used for day cruising and weekending with a couple or two aboard,” Yachting previously reported.

Keal Over is powered by twin, 600 hp Volvo Penta IPS800 diesel engines, but reportedly have the performance of 1,600 hp straight-shaft diesel engines due to their pod-drive design. Keal Over will quickly spool up to 42 knots with a comfortable cruise speed of 32 knots, but dial it back to 21 knots to increase range to 350 nautical miles.
