1990 Northwest Boats Custom

This 107-foot motor yacht was built in 1990 by Northwest Boats of Seattle, a custom design conceived for long-range expedition cruising. Her all-aluminum hull—constructed from marine-grade 5086 and 5053 plate—displaces 330,000 pounds and is engineered with commercial-grade integrity. Twin Detroit Diesel 16V92 TA engines produce 1,400 horsepower each and were overhauled 500 hours ago. The yacht reaches 20 knots at full speed and cruises at 12 knots, supported by Detroit V-drives, oversized bronze propellers, Naiad stabilizers, and a 16-inch hydraulic bow thruster.

The accommodation spaces include seven cabins and six heads, designed to support extended cruising. The aluminum construction provides structural durability and requires less maintenance than traditional fiberglass hulls, while the robust systems and mechanical architecture reflect the yacht's expedition pedigree and serious seagoing capability.
