HARD TIMES
98 ft' Westport Westbay Sonship Raised Pilothouse 1998

HARD TIMES is a factory original cockpit motor yacht, built for ease of access to the water through an aft transom door. From the cockpit there are port and starboard molded stairs leading up to the aft deck.  The covered aft deck is furnished with aft curved built-in seating, a teak dining table and occasional teak deck chairs. To the starboard corner is a stainless-steel staircase leading up to the boat deck with a hatch closing door.

Entering the salon through glass sliding door is a full beam spacious salon. To starboard is a step-down bar which allows for unobstructed views through her windows while seated anywhere in the salon. To port is an L-shaped sectional sofa. The forward salon bulkhead houses an 82” Translucent mirror TV by Clearview (new in 2021) coupled with the electric blackout blinds creating an amazing theatre experience.

From the salon moving forward on starboard side is a day head and a deck entry door, forward of this is access to the pilothouse, galley and 2 crew cabins forward. 

From the salon on the port side is another side deck entry door and stairs leading down to a foyer leading to the owner’s stateroom and 2 guest cabins.

Moving up to the pilothouse there is a raised seating area for viewing while underway, 1 helm seat and electronics. Steps up take you to the flybridge which has a hardtop, 3 helm seats, L shaped seating and a stand-up bar with stools. Aft of that is the davit and space for sunning and tender storage.

The salon is a spacious full beam with a sectional L-shaped sofa to port and built-in bar to starboard. The Amtico wide plank flooring was replaced in 2022, to match the galley.
