Westport 135/01 Yacht

Design & Construction

Designed around a semi-displacement composite hull and superstructure she features a 7.98m beam and a 1.8m draft.

This was the first yacht built on the Westport W135 design. Launched in January 2026 this yacht undertook sea trials over the following months.

Exterior Design

The first hull of the Westport 135|41M is a 41m (134.5ft) raised pilothouse motoryacht with a broad-beam profile, long foredeck, and a clean superstructure that stays recognisably Westport while moving the range forward. Her hull, superstructure, and decks are all built in foam-cored composite using E-glass reinforcements, vinyl ester resins, and a mix of infused and hand-laid laminates, while structural framing combines E-glass and carbon fibre reinforcements. The entire structure is engineered to ABS rules.

Her exterior finish is simple and crisp, with Alexseal Snow White high-gloss urethane across the hull and superstructure, Black Magic metallic on selected superstructure features, and Super Jet Black on the mast and boot stripe. The bottom is finished in black Sea Hawk antifouling over an epoxy barrier coat. Frameless laminated windows are directly bonded into the structure, so the glazing reads as long, uninterrupted bands rather than heavy framed openings.

The raised pilothouse layout shapes the whole exterior arrangement. A teak-lined Portuguese bridge sits forward with a built-in settee, two tables, folding chairs, sunpad, removable awning, storage to port and starboard, and two pop-up cleats. The foredeck itself is kept clear and practical, with twin recessed stainless steel anchor pockets, dual electric windlasses, chain lockers below, a bosun’s locker, a bow seat with storage beneath, and two further pop-up cleats.

Side decks are teak over composite and fully functional, with port and starboard boarding gates, aft windscreen doors, deck fills recessed into the port house side, and a carbon-fibre boarding stair that can mount at either side. Aft, the main deck is arranged as a true outdoor living space, with a molded-in settee, a high-low dining and cocktail table, four dining chairs, three loose bar stools, twin Maxwell capstans, and a wet bar with sink, refrigerated drawers, and bar storage. Curved stairs rise to the boat deck, while a weather-tight door leads down to the control room.

The boat deck adds another full exterior zone. It carries the 2,500lb hydraulic davit, the AB Nautilus 15DLX tender with 70hp Yamaha outboard, a custom spa pool with multizone jets, and a wet bar with sink, grill, refrigerated drawers, and glass storage. Above that, the flybridge is protected by a composite hardtop and arranged with twin Stidd helm chairs, a central helm console, wing stations to port and starboard, curved glass wind protection, and matching settees with high-low tables on both sides.

At the stern, the teak swim step connects directly to the beach club and utility spaces. Steps rise port and starboard to the aft deck, while the swim ladder, removable staple rails, pop-up cleats, shower, and washdown points keep the area practical for daily use. The beach club itself is compact but properly equipped, with a stone-topped wet bar, refrigerated drawer, stainless steel sink, TV, and loose seating, so it works as a genuine waterside lounge.

Accommodation

Accommodation is for up to 10 guests, and the layout keeps the owner on the main deck while guest cabins sit below. The master stateroom has a king berth with upholstered headboard and powered lift storage below, two wardrobes, three dressers, two nightstands, accent lighting at overhead edges and beneath the berth, and a pair of mirrored wardrobe doors. The suite is supported by a large en suite with port and starboard vanities, a makeup desk, dresser, twin linen lockers, two toilets, and a stone shower with frameless glass doors and Kohler DTV+ controls.

On the lower deck, the guest accommodation is split into four cabins. Port aft, starboard aft, and port forward each have a queen berth with storage below, nightstands, dresser, wardrobe, and private en suite. The starboard forward cabin is arranged differently as a workout room with upper and lower Pullman twin berths, so it can serve as extra guest accommodation or a flexible wellness room depending on owner preference. All guest heads use stone showers with frameless glass, mirrored medicine cabinets, vanity storage, and the same indirect lighting language as the rest of the yacht.

Crew accommodation is substantial and practical. The captain has a double berth, desk, safe, dresser, upper cabinets, and private head, while four crew twin berths are arranged with their own wardrobes, dressers, and storage beneath the lower bunks. The crew mess includes a built-in upholstered settee, table, upper and lower cabinetry, walk-in storage, microwave, refrigerator/freezer, and two stacked Miele washer-dryer sets, so the yacht is arranged for serious time on board rather than short-hop use only.

Performance & Capabilities

Powered by twin diesel MTU (16V2000 M97L) 16-cylinder 2,600hp engines running at 2450rpm, motor yacht Westport 135/01 is capable of reaching a top speed of 25 knots, and comfortably cruises at 20 knots. Her semi-displacement hull design means she offers a great balance of space and speed.
