Why A Northwest

You aren't purchasing a cruising vessel to sit at the dock...

Northwest trawlers and expedition yachts are built to go places, in safety, comfort and style.

Safety First

Every effort is made in concept, design and construction to deliver the safest possible boat.  High bulwarks, beefy railings, dock-level main decks, and prominent handholds make for top safety at sea as well as at the dock

Purpose-Built Designs

The Northwest semi-displacement fiberglass (FRP) hull is engineered to deliver an ideal balance of performance, efficiency, and durability. Perfect for coastal cruising, its robust design also provides the confidence to explore offshore when adventure calls.

Feels Like Home

You should feel just as comfortable aboard your Northwest as you do at home. Thoughtful design features include wider passageways, gently sloped stairs, heated stone floors in the heads, ergonomically designed settees, and abundant storage that's easy to access.

Tailored Just For You

Everyone has unique tastes—and at Northwest, we believe your cruising vessel should reflect yours. While there are some limitations, if your ideas are safe and practical, we’re committed to bringing them to life.

Stylish Yet Powerful

Life’s too short to cruise anything but a beautiful boat. Naval designer Steven R. Seaton and Peter Whiting have combined timeless style with purposeful function in every Northwest design.

Attention to Detail

Extreme care is taken to insure that the smallest design, construction, or delivery detail is not overlooked. All components and materials used are carefully selected - we don’t cut corners or compromise quality.

Delivering More Than Just a Boat

Northwest owners all agree buying a new Northwest met or exceeded their expectations in every way.

We Deliver As Promised

Under promise and over deliver is one of our basic tenants of business. We know how we like to be treated when we make a major purchase and it’s reflected in how we treat our customers.

Learn On Your Boat

As part of every delivery, Northwest provides skipper and mate training including general operation and maneuvering. We want you to be confident in your abilities to cruise your new Northwest in safety.

From the very beginning, our goal at Northwest Yachts has been to design, engineer, and produce high quality trawlers and expedition yachts.

After years of research and speaking with customers like you, we honed in a design that will meet your cruising requirements. The result is a series of luxurious, state-of-the-art vessels offering safety, comfort, and self-sufficiency for cruising in waters anywhere.

Our team of notable designers and builders will then tailor the yacht to fit your needs just for you.  Are you ready to build the boat you envision for your cruising style….not someone else’s?

We would love to talk with you about your cruising plans and have you experience a genuine sense of partnership we feel is unique in this industry.
