Fellow member Kootenay67 suggests that the 6th 50-meter by Westport has been launched and that her name is "Harmony".
Here is a pic of Westport's newest 164, "Boardwalk" in Orjanstead...She carries a helicopter too! http://media.shipspotting.com/uploads/photos/rw/1148649/Ship+Photo+Boardwalk.JPG
Here are pics of "Harmony's" exterior and interior... http://www.westportyachts.com/yachts/westport164/gallery1.php
Just letting you guys know that a new Westport 164 has been launched. She is hull 5009, called "Legacy" and more than likely was launched this month.
Westport plans to launch another 164 (hull 6?) this month... who can name them all?! They seem to be pretty popular but that is not surprising.
"Vango" 5001, "Evviva" 5002, "My Girl" 5003, "SeaQuest" 5004 "Xilonen V" ex. Lady Kathryn IV" 5005, "Harmony" 5006, "Boardwalk" 5007, "Wabi Sabi" 5008, "Legacy" 5009. The new 164 must be hull 10 because I think 10 and 11 are to launch in 2012.
Westport recently put up both exterior and interior photos of hull 5009, "Legacy" on their website. Photo Gallery - Westport 164 Model
Finally an interior I prefer over these classic (american) designs you can find on her sisters!! The Creek is sort of Bloody Bay, right?
Westport RIF I hate to be the bearer of ill tidings. However, I feel this is news that deserves discussion and objective insight from the wealth of knowledge that is this forum.
The Global Order Book showed at that time, September, 9 boats for 2014 delivery. One 85', three 112', three 130' and two 164'. I think 2013 was probably about the same and 2014 could still increase to as much as 12. So they seem consistent at 8-12. I think it shows the industry trend that the 98' isn't showing any activity.
Westport is going to be in attendance at this year's Monaco Yacht Show (MYS). Meet them at Stand AL 15 Quay Albert.
Westport has done a redesign to the 112 starting with hull 60. She has picked up some elements of the 125 but no significant changes and the same hull.
I haven’t seen any press releases on this but it looks like the first redesigned 112 is at the Miami show.
