1988 West Bay Philbrook's / Bill Garden Design

This 73-foot pilothouse motor yacht was designed by renowned naval architect Bill Garden and built by Philbrooks in Sidney, BC. Her hull follows Garden's proven Post Class design, originally developed for Federal Fisheries patrol vessels operating in Pacific Northwest waters. Twin Detroit Diesel engines deliver 1,100 horsepower combined, powering this purpose-built cruising yacht.

The pilothouse layout accommodates three staterooms, including an owner's suite with private access. The open galley flows into entertaining spaces across the flying bridge, aft deck, and foredeck sun pad. Interior woodwork throughout is finished white oak, refinished in satin walnut.

A comprehensive multi-year refit by West Bay Shipyards in Delta addressed every system and surface. Work included replacement of all windows with modern frameless direct-glaze glass, new portholes, complete bottom re-glassing with epoxy coating, and new teak decking. Interior carpeting was replaced throughout. The hydraulic systems were overhauled with new main hydraulics, variable displacement pumps on both engines, and proportional controls. A new stern thruster was installed, along with an upgraded anchoring system featuring a hydraulic Maxwell 4000 windlass, 400 feet of 12mm chain, and a 121-pound stainless steel anchor. A hydraulic Presto 500 swim grid lift accommodates a Novurania 430DL tender with 50hp Yamaha engine. The bottom was last serviced in July 2025, and mechanical systems received service in January 2026 including fluids, filters, engine zincs, and impellers.
