Westport Yachts is the largest yacht builder in North America and is recognized as a leader among American superyacht builders. With a heritage steeped in the shipbuilding traditions of the Pacific Northwest, Westport was founded in 1964 as a manufacturer of commercial vessels designed to meet the needs of fishing fleets. Delivering its first commercial vessel in 1965, Westport Yachts has built and launched a wide variety of vessels, ranging from commercial fishing boats and fast passenger ferries to luxurious motor yachts. Westport was a pioneer in the use of composite materials in yacht and commercial construction and are renowned for pioneering series-built composite yachts for sale. All Westport yachts have been designed, engineered and crafted by hand in the US; the company’s commitment to quality design and engineering has resulted in the completion of more than 200 commercial vessels.

Westport prides itself on creating comfortable, safe yachts with classic American design. Westport has three shipyards where they build advanced technology vessels; these include Westport Shipyard, Port Angeles Shipyard and Hoquiam Shipyard — all shipyards are located in Washington. The company’s sales office is in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Westport yachts are built exclusively with lighter weight fiberglass composite construction, which makes for faster and more fuel-efficient yachts. This structure also isolates and absorbs sound, offers first-rate thermal insulation properties and doesn’t corrode meaning less maintenance is required.
