westbay sonship yachts in trouble

This may be the wrong place for this question, but I figure there are alot of experienced boat owners, captains and people connected to the industry on this forum. I have a slip neighbor who has seen and really likes a Westbay 58. I went and looked at it with him and came away quite impressed with the quality of the workmanship. It was a 2000 and had the 3408 Cat engine package. For a pilothouse boat I thought it was every bit as good quality wise as an Offshore 58. Anyway, has anyone spent any dockside and/or sea time aboard one of these boats. I told him I would run this thread here and see if he can get any additional info. Thanks, I know they're not Hatts and he would prefer a newer pilothouse boat.

Re: Westbay Sonship

These are built about 10 miles from where I live, I know the shop foreman who supervised all the painting work on all their yachts, they are known for high quality construction and your friend should feel confident in the Yachts overall quality of construction. I have seen a few cruise from Vancouver Bc to Mexico and return with no running problems other than weather stuff. Good luck. DM

Spent some time on one of these which was a dock mate in Marathon this winter (owned by Jack Dozier who publishes the Waterway Guides). Very nice boat, Hatt quality. His unfortunately had overly pumped up 6v92's which were causing him some heart ache. Beyond that, I really liked that boat. I am a big fan of the Offshores too, and this boat had better ergonomics, especially in the ER. The company has had some big financial problems in the last year or so due to the exchange rate and a less than competent son taking over the business. George
Thnaks you guys... great feedback. I will see him tomorrow and pass on the info. I agree on the engine room. It was standing headroom and a much better accessthan the Offshore 58. I went aboard an Offshore at the Newport boat show here in April and the entrance to the engine room was through a hatch in the aft deck and it was "stoop" room for me. He is aware of the financial problems with Westbay. He had heard the same reasons. The loss of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar and very poor management by the two sons of the original owner. Once again, thanks and I too thought it was a very good quality boat.

The 31.39m/103' motor yacht 'Odyssey' (ex. Little Paradise) was built by West Bay SonShip in Canada at their Delta, British Columbia shipyard. Her interior is styled by design house Glade Johnson Design and she was completed in 1999. This luxury vessel's exterior design is the work of Jack Sarin and she was last refitted in 2019.

Onboard Comfort & Entertainment

Her features include a gym, deck jacuzzi, WiFi and air conditioning.

Range & Performance

Built with a GRP hull and GRP superstructure, with teak decks, she benefits from a semi-displacement hull to provide exceptional seakeeping and impressive speeds. Powered by twin diesel MTU (12V2000) 12-cylinder 1,350hp engines, she comfortably cruises at 12 knots, reaches a maximum speed of 18 knots with a range of up to 2,100 nautical miles from her 17,033 litre fuel tanks at 12 knots. Her low draft of 1.63m/5'4" makes her primed for accessing shallow areas and cruising close to the shorelines. An on board stabilization system ensures comfort when underway. Her water tanks store around 2,839 Litres of fresh water.

Nauticapedia

Site News: August 18, 2024

The vessel database has been updated and is now holding 93,618 vessel histories (with 15,919 images and 13,842 records of ship wrecks and marine disasters). The mariner and naval biography database has also been updated and now contains 58,620 entries (with 4,020 images).

In 2023 the Nauticapedia celebrated the 50th Anniversary of it’s original inception in 1973 (initially it was on 3" x 5" file cards). It has developed, expanded, digitized and enlarged in those ensuing years to what it is now online. If it was printed out it would fill more than 300,000 pages!

My special thanks to our volunteer IT adviser, John Eyre, who (since 2021) has modernized, simplified and improved the update process for the databases into semi–automated processes. His participation has been vital to keeping the Nauticapedia available to our netizens.

Also my special thanks to my volunteer content accuracy checker, John Spivey of Irvine CA USA, who has proofread thousands of Nauticapedia vessel histories and provided input to improve more than 11,000 entries. His attention to detail has been a huge unexpected bonus in improving and updating the vessel detail content.

  • Page 1 of 1

In addition to producing the luxury SonShip motor yachts West Bay is known for, West Bay Shipyards provides yacht repairs, yacht servicing and refitting, and any services needed to make a vessel ready for ocean passage. Ben Vermeulen initially built hundreds of work boats ranging from rugged, high-speed police patrol boats to commercial fishing boats and rapidly gained a reputation for fine craftsmanship and business ethics of hardwork and honesty. After attaining success with its strong and durable, high-quality commercial vessels, West Bay began expanding into the luxury recreational cruising market, utilizing the latest construction techniques and cutting-edge materials to build the first model, the West Bay 4500 Pilothouse in 1985, followed by 65ft and 72ft motor yachts.

West Bay launched the first West Bay 58 in 1991. Designed by Ben Vermeulen, naval architect Howard Appolonio, and yacht stylist Glade Johnson, the 58 quickly became West Bay’s most popular motor yacht. It featured sleek, attractive exterior lines with the rock-solid build, seaworthiness, and all the features expected of a great Northwest cruising boat—walk-around decks protected by hefty rails, cockpit/aft deck large enough for sportfishing or outdoor dining, spacious flybridge with panoramic 360-degree view, and spacious raised pilothouse with large windows. Constructed with state-of-the-art materials for weight-reduction and hull-strengthening, hull pockets to protect the props, and quiet underwater exhaust. The interior featured expertly crafted joinery of fine hardwoods, spacious saloon, raised galley, two large staterooms, plus a smaller stateroom, and two heads. From 1991 to 2002 timeframe, West Bay produced more than 60 of the 58 model, continually updating them with amenities and more.

As one of Canada’s largest boat builders, West Bay Marine has a 110ft tri-deck SonShip under construction designed by Greg Marshall, the award-winning Canadian naval architect based in British Columbia. The 2020 SonShip 110 features elegant softer lines with graceful curves; window corners are rounded with softer angles, a departure from West Bay’s characteristic straighter lines and angular windows. All West Bay yachts feature a sleek profile; never boxy or ungainly. The main deck of the SonShip 110 extends forward, nearly to the bow to accommodate an on-deck full beam master stateroom. The SonShip 110 features a spacious enclosed Sky Lounge with Sky Lounge deck area and a Sun Bridge with a 6-person hot tub.

Crew accommodations include a large crew galley. Luxury accommodations are for 10 with 4 ensuite guest staterooms. A truly beautiful motor yacht designed by Gregory C. Marshall, Naval Architect, Ltd. recipient of the 2021 Design Award for the Exterior Design of Nobiskrug’s 262ft superyacht, Artefact. West Bay’s core values are quality without compromise, commitment, and service. And these values are evident in each West Bay built, resulting in higher resale prices in the brokerage market. A favorite of the Pacific Northwest and West Coast, the West Bay 58 has already attained iconic status. A selection of West Bay SonShip yachts is currently listed in the vessel brokerage MLS, ranging from about $449,000 for a 1997 West Bay SonShip 58 to about $2,995,000 for a 2002 West Bay SonShip 88, with a median price of about $1,722,000. Model years range from 1996 to 2005. Resale values testify to the high-quality, seaworthiness, comfort, and performance of the West Bay Sonship motor yachts.

Since you seem to talk to yourself, (both posts are from the same IP-address), may I fill in that this looks exactly like the apple jam I got from my mother! Must be something with the global warming...?

We appreciate the "Humor", but it's as far from "Apple Jam" as Sweden is to Florida. Any tips on using forums to communicate ( A Father & Son ) One will be located in NJ, the Other off shore.

There was one at Roscioli's that had a major interior problem, they tented the whole boat off and did some secret renovations, that I heard were done under warranty, it could be the same problem. Yours looks like a slow water leak that leaked enough to wet the area, but not enough to leak thru. Good luck with your warranty, the company was bankrupt a short time ago.
Actually, I am referring to Ship at Roscioli's, The problem is ongoing and West Bay has announced that "They are Back in Biz", but not back enough to make good on thier commitments to us. I am eager to share the details, but at the same time, hesitant as it is a long story to tell. Regards, Owners of the M/Y Renaissance.
