2026 Northwest 55
About This Yacht
The Northwest 55 is a 55-foot fiberglass trawler built for extended-range cruising. Its practical, expedition-oriented design emphasizes capability and durability over flash. The hull measures 17 feet across the beam, providing solid stability and usable interior volume.
Accommodation includes three cabins and two heads, arranged to support cruising crews comfortably for extended passages. Storage is substantial throughout, with dedicated spaces for provisions and gear necessary for long-distance voyaging. Fuel capacity reaches 1,200 US gallons, supporting the extended range this design class demands.
Power comes from a John Deere engine, delivering reliable mechanical propulsion suited to the trawler's cruising profile. The boat's straightforward construction and systems reflect the no-frills engineering typical of expedition vessels built for working conditions rather than resort amenities.
