Her full beam salon offers a generous and comfortable living area, which has been beautifully updated. The galley is open with a large dinette with seating. There are numerous areas to enjoy outdoor space to include the aft deck, cockpit, flybridge and bow.
The raised pilothouse offers built in seating and access to the flybridge which has a bar, additional L-shaped seating, and lots of deck lounging space plus a barbecue. This deck has childproof/pet protection for around the rails.
The cockpit area allows for safe access to the engine room while running and convenient access to the water for diving, swimming, fishing, and watersports.
Westport has been building yachts in the USA since the 1980s, they are a respected shipbuilder that continues to deliver yachts. This factory-built cockpit motoryacht is designed with shallow prop pockets keeping her draft to 5’9”, which is perfect for the East Coast, Gulf Coast, Florida Keys, and the Bahamas. She is a hard-chined, nice-running semi-displacement hull. Westport built the hull and superstructure in 1997, while her finish work was completed at Westbay Sonship in 1998. Under the stewardship of only three caring owners since new, she has received constant care and upgrades that have complimented her original build quality.
