Pacific Mariner 65 Designed for Couple Cruising


Pacific Mariner 65 
The Pacific Mariner 65 is built in the Pacific Northwest where is
rains, gets rough in a heartbeat, and is chilly most of the year. What better place
to find both the designers and the builders of a long-distance cruising boat?


The realm of 60-70 foot motoryachts has certainly come of
age. It is, we think, the perfect size range for an owner-operator who wants to
have the largest boat that is easily manageable by a couple, but small enough to
be affordable for many people, both to buy and to operate. These boats exude a sense
of luxury while allowing for a wide range of performance, cruising aptitudes, and
applications. Some are all flash and dash and look great at the dock or for an evening
cocktail party and may impress people who know nothing about boats. Others are carefully
designed for specific work, are practical and functional, either for long range
cruising, coastal cruising or a little bit of both. The Pacific Mariner 65 by Westport
is more of the latter. The folks at Pacific Mariner, when they started over 15 years
ago, had the dream of building an exceptional cruising boat that a couple could
easily handle. The PM 65 has been around awhile but she is still a very special
boat – there is still nothing quite like her. To find why we think she is so special --
