Westport is a Washington State shipyard specialising in composite fibreglass motor yachts in the 40 to 70 metre range, with a design vocabulary oriented toward the North American charter market and a build reputation for reliability, low maintenance, and strong resale value in the pre-owned market. The yard has delivered more than 200 vessels since its founding and maintains one of the most consistent build standards in the Pacific Northwest yachting industry. In the Bahamas, Westport charter yachts bring that reliability and comfort to one of the most popular winter charter destinations for East Coast US clients. Composite fibreglass construction keeps weight down and maintenance requirements low in the salt air and UV exposure of the Bahamian climate. The tri-deck profile common across the Westport range provides generous interior volume for its overall length, with separate deck levels allowing different groups within the charter party to occupy distinct spaces during the day. Aft deck configurations typically include a large swim platform and easy boarding access for water sports in the Exuma shallows. Weekly charter rates for Westport yachts in the Bahamas run from approximately 75,000 to 150,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance adds 30 percent for fuel, provisions, Nassau marina fees, and drinks. Peak demand runs from December through March and booking three to five months ahead is advisable for the best selection. Nassau is the standard base for a Westport charter. The classic Bahamas itinerary from Nassau covers the Exuma Cays going south-east, with Allen Cay, Warderick Wells, and Staniel Cay as the main stops before returning north through the Berry Islands to complete the week in a quiet anchorage close to the Gulf Stream departure point.
