After several years of research, the clients became interested in Westport Yachts, when considering building a new vessel in the 100’ size range. Their requirements revolved around the need of a yacht capable of voyages cruising through the Bahamas, Caribbean and continental North American waters. The interior and exterior entertainment areas were very important to them and accommodation for 8 guests with up to 5 crew were the stipulated parameters for spacious entertaining.

While aesthetics and modern designs were highly important, naval architectural knowledge, quality of construction, reputation, reliability and eventual resale drove the client’s decision to entrust Westport with their vision. Having a background in engineering and use as an owner operator, the client was impressed with the 112 Westport and the yard’s ability to integrate the best mechanical and electrical systems with a crew-friendly, low draft, fast and sea-friendly hull.

Westport delivered a product far exceeding the stringent expectations. Lyon’s Pride uses the first hull of the newly styled W112.
