Urteil
The Westport 112 is a proven U.S.-built raised-pilothouse motoryacht with strong cruising speed, solid interior volume, and a layout that suits 8 guests well. It is less about cutting-edge innovation and more about reliable, high-volume ownership with good resale recognition.
Vorteile
- +Established Westport 112 platform with long production run and broad market familiarity
- +Comfortable 4-cabin, 8-guest layout that fits family or charter use
- +Fast cruising for a yacht of this size, with around 22-knot cruise and about 25–26-knot top speed
- +Strong range and practical fuel/water capacities for coastal and extended passages
Nachteile
- −Design is conventional rather than avant-garde
- −Handling is helped by stabilizers and thrusters, but this is still a large heavy yacht
- −Older 2008 example will vary significantly in refit and maintenance condition
- −Value depends heavily on survey results, machinery hours, and interior updates
The Westport 112 is a classic American raised-pilothouse motor yacht with clean lines, a wide beam, and a layout built around usable volume rather than dramatic styling. The 2008 build fits the earlier Gen 2 version of the model, which is generally listed around 112 ft overall, while later versions are slightly different in exact length. It is a practical, well-known platform rather than a niche custom one.
On the water, the Westport 112 is respected for its balance of speed and seakeeping. Published figures commonly place cruise around 22 knots and top speed around 25–26 knots, which is strong for a yacht of this class. Twin diesel power, stabilizers, and a bow thruster support confident maneuvering, though a yacht of this size still demands an experienced crew in tight marinas and changing sea states.
Comfort is a strong point. The 4-cabin layout for 8 guests is consistent with the model’s standard arrangement and suits private cruising or charter-friendly use. Interior space, guest circulation, and separation from crew areas are among its main strengths, but actual livability on a 2008 yacht depends heavily on refits, décor, and onboard systems maintenance.
In value terms, the Westport 112 remains attractive because it is a recognizable, proven build with good performance and a solid service reputation. The downside is that older examples can differ sharply in condition, so survey quality, engine history, and recent upgrades matter more than the badge alone.
