Verdict
The Westport 112 is a proven American-built semi-custom motor yacht with strong volume, a practical four-cabin layout, and cruising performance that still fits owner-operator or lightly crewed use. Its main tradeoffs are age, fuel burn at speed, and a design that prioritizes space and function over the latest styling.
Avantages
- +Strong interior volume for a 112-foot yacht
- +Practical 4-cabin / 8-guest arrangement
- +Fast cruising performance for its size
- +Shallow enough draft for many coastal cruising grounds
- +Established Westport build quality and support network
Inconvénients
- −Older 2004 example may need more refit attention
- −Fuel and operating costs are high at speed
- −Interior styling can feel dated versus newer yachts
- −Less cutting-edge than newer 110- to 120-foot competitors
The Westport 112 is a classic American semi-custom megayacht with a focus on usable space, efficient layout, and predictable systems. For the 2004 Gen 1 version, the 111'8" length, 23'9" beam, and fiberglass construction give it the proportions and volume expected from a serious cruising yacht rather than a lightweight showpiece.
On the water, the platform is known for strong performance from twin MTU power, with published figures around the mid-20-knot range and a comfortable cruise near the low 20s. That makes it notably capable for a yacht of this size, while the modest draft and stabilizer-equipped setup support coastal and island cruising. Handling is generally described as solid and confidence-inspiring rather than sporty.
Comfort is a major strength: four cabins for eight guests is a sensible charter or family arrangement, and Westport’s layout typically emphasizes a full-beam master, a VIP, and two additional guest cabins. The tradeoff is that a 2004 example may show its age in décor and systems, so livability depends heavily on refit quality and maintenance history.
In value terms, the Westport 112 remains appealing because it offers pedigree, volume, and speed in a recognizable package. Buyers should weigh that against older-yacht upkeep, fuel consumption, and the likelihood of capital spending to keep it competitive with newer boats.
