Sketching boats (at 15 years old, in Seattle) was a pastime for me long before I was ready to earn a living. The chance to do both, however, began when I went to work for Bill Garden, the premier Seattle yacht designer during the summers of 1963 thru ‘65. I also had a great time working part time with Ed Monk Sr. during those early years in Seattle.  This was also the time of my life when I turned down a contract to play professional Baseball; not in the minors but in the “Bigs”.  It was hard to turn down professional sports but the drive to be a yacht designer was too compelling.  The experiences that I gained with those two great designers lead me to Morgan Yacht Corp ub St. Petersburg, FL, at the time, the top production boat company in the United States. There I was working directly under Charles Morgan as employee number 5 of 650 or so.  Later I ran my own boatyard, Hidden Harbor Boat Works, Inc.  in Sarasota, Florida.  During  those  years I designed as well  as  built a number of well  known custom yachts,  all of which are  known  as “Goldplaters.”   The ability to own and run this shipyard makes me very unique as I know both sides of the custom boat building business.   I, along with two others was there at the very beginning when forming the shipyard in Anacortes, WA known as Northern Marine. I also did a long series of designs for Delta Marine in Seattle, WA.  The first yachts built by Delta were Seaton Designs, the most famous of which, being the 70 footer “Zopolite”.  Another of my designs that Delta built was the first 110 footer, “Onika”.  Onika won “Best in Class” in the famous ShowBoats magazine competition shortly after being launched.

Building yachts, however, took too much time away from designing, so leaving the financially successful boat yard business behind, I concentrated all of my efforts on my own design firm.  Later I joined talents with one of my employees (and current friend), Chuck Neville forming SEATON-NEVILLE Naval Architects of Clearwater, Fla. For over 11 years the partnership was successful and productive until we both decided to dissolve the partnership so that we could pursue our own personal goals.  Late in 1988 I moved to the Northwest to open a small design office with the idea of limiting  my work to special projects. I like to maintain a direct and close relationship with each client. My diversified abilities have helped me to work on a wide variety of both large and small projects for both custom and production clients.

My designs have ranged in size from eight foot dinghies to vessels of over a hundred and fifty feet, and unlike most firms I have become equally known for motor yachts and sailboats alike.  The yachts I design are as different from project to project as the clients who commission him.  The list of clients goes on and on with a host of “dyed-in-the-wool” real sailors as well as having received a call from the President of the United States asking for advice on the boat building industry.

It has been said that whether its power or sail, all SEATON designed vessels show a characteristic sensitivity to detail and balance that is proper and fitting for a luxury vessel, or any vessel for that matter.  In all aspects from design to decor Seaton vessels just look and feel right. It is this sophistication and attention that I have learned in 530+ custom yacht projects.  This experience has also made my abilities a valued commodity for an increasing number of production boat builders.  No “Walmart type designs here”.

Today, in the year 2014, I reside in the beautiful Florida town of Ocala (horse country) to take care of my 95 yr old mother.  When I am asked about my future plans, I say with a sparkle in my eye….”Move back home to the Pacific Northwest; people there have boats not horses…..”

Northwest Motor Yachts from 52′ to 58′

Northwest Motor Yachts are not “cookie cutter” models. Each Steve Seaton designed boat Northwest Yachts builds is tailored to the individual requirements of its’ owner. The size, layout, styling, hull configuration and construction materials are carefully considered in the creation of your new boat; one built just for you.

For open ocean, coastal, near coastal and inside passage cruising, our semi-displacement, FRP constructed Trawler series are the perfect configuration. This gives the owner the option of cruising at displacement speeds for economy or, for when it is needed, cruise at speeds up to 12 knots (depending upon engine selection). Northwest Motor Yachts are built standard as a twin engine configuration optionally as a single. Northwest Motor Yachts are available with engine sizes that will allow for faster cruising speeds or to achieve top speeds of 18 to 20 knots. For the 52 and 55, Northwest offers the John Deere 6068 (330hp) engine(s) as standard. For the larger models, the John Deere 6090, (500hp) or 6135 (750hp)  engines are available.

For more information or to find out how surprisingly affordable it is to have a boat tailored just for you, please call or write us .

New Yacht Design And Build Made Easy With The Seattle Yachts Team

When Seattle Northwest Yachts LLC made the decision to build two lines of new yachts, managing partner Peter Whiting knew he needed a design and build team that was more than just highly talented. He knew he needed a team that also had an unmatched depth of real-world background — not only in yacht construction but in both sail and power yachting as well. For all the grand plans in the world inevitably amount to little without the practical experience needed to turn those plans into reality.

The Seattle Northwest Yachts design and build team brings together nearly two centuries of combined yacht design and construction experience. Just as importantly, every member of the Seattle Yachts design and build team has been involved with boating since a young age and displays a driving love for yachts and yachting. Which makes all the difference in the world.

Here are some of the highlights of the Northwest Yachts and Alaskan Yachts Design & Build Team:

Stephen R. Seaton

Stephen R. Seaton, Seattle Yachts’ principal designer, has been actively designing sailboats and motor yachts for more than 50 years, with some 560 different designs amassed to his credit. Seaton was instrumental in the design of the first yachts built by now world-renown Delta Marine of Seattle — perhaps the most well-known of which are the 70-footer Zopilote and the 110-footer Onika.

Onika was named Best in Class in a Showboats International magazine competition the year she was launched. And the next year, Seaton won the same award for a 105-foot trawler yacht to his design. On the boatbuilding side, Seaton was one of three key players in the original formation of Northern Marine in Anacortes, WA, where he functioned as Chief Designer and where the 62-foot Spirit of Zopilote was built under his watchful eye. The practical understanding that grows out of Steve’s experience in owning and running a shipyard distinguishes him among yacht designers and is, in part, what makes him a vital part of the Seattle Northwest Yachts program.

Peter Whiting

Peter Whiting , managing partner of Seattle Northwest Yachts LLC, is the developer and co-designer of the Northwest line with models from 45 to 75 feet LOA, including the firm’s flagship Northwest 63 currently under construction.

Peter is a lifelong boater, having learned to sail in Northern California at the age 11. Over the years, he has boated extensively in various areas of North America, from New England to the waters of the Pacific Northwest and in between. With his extensive sailing and cruising experience, Peter brings a knowledgeable and seasoned viewpoint to the table.

In 1998, he purchased Northwest Yachts and subsequently developed and built a series of Northwest trawlers and expedition-styled motor yachts. Then, in early 2016, he amalgamated Northwest Yachts and Seattle Yachts into a single yacht dealership and brokerage under the trade-name Seattle Yachts. When the opportunity arose, in late 2017, to acquire the trademark rights and intellectual property of Alaskan Yachts, Peter did so with the intent to re-develop and reintroduce to the market the history-rich and value-laden Alaskan trawler-yacht line.

Phil Friedman

Phil Friedman serves as Seattle Yachts’ New-Build Manager, making sure that the team’s designs and plans get translated accurately and effectively into real-world product.

Phil has a long and broad-ranging history in the marine industry, as a yacht builder, boat and shipyard manager, small-craft surveyor, and yachting writer and editor. He was for several years the president and CEO of world-class mega-yacht builder, Palmer Johnson Yachts, during which time the company, under his supervision, developed, built, and refitted nearly two dozen luxury mega-yachts in the 30- to 60-meter range.

Over the course of a multi-year tenure as Senior Editor of Power & Motoryacht magazine, Phil tested and evaluated hundreds of yachts worldwide. He has published more than 1,200 articles on yacht design, construction, repair and maintenance. And his recently published eBook, Ten Golden Rules for Successful New Build Projects, has received wide acclaim from industry professionals. Phil’s more recent work includes managing the construction of an 80-foot cruising motor yacht in Taiwan; supervising the ship-fitting for a 45-meter composite military patrol vessel; the project management of prototype construction for a new line of 65-foot high-performance catamaran motor yachts; and the design and supervision of the fabrication and installation of ultralight interior joinery and furniture for a number of high-performance Hovercraft military patrol vessels.

Phil is veteran sailor with seven years liveaboard cruising experience and some 40 years of sailing on the Great Lakes, as well as on the waters of Florida, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean. More information on Phil’s long and varied career can be found by running a Google search on “phil friedman yacht”. Also check out the Guide to Owning and Buying a Trawler Yacht for sale .

Bill Macnab

Bill Macnab is the Production Manager for the shipyard with whom Seattle Yachts is strategically partnered for the tooling and construction of the Northwest and Alaskan yacht lines. Bill has been a professional boat builder nearly all his life. He built his first sailing dingy in 1965 when he was only 6 years old, with some help from his dad, using FRP to seal the dagger pockets.

He later found work in a local boatyard, Cooper yachts — which eventually became Cooper-Queenship — where worked for Forbes Cooper for 14 years. Eventually, Bill bought the tooling for a line of pilothouse sailing yachts from Forbes and started his own Company, North West Yachts (not to be confused with Northwest Yachts).

Following a stint in cabinetmaking, Bill completed a formal boatbuilding apprenticeship at the Cooper yard, then accepted a management position with West Bay Yachts in the production of their 105 line, where from 1997 to 2007, he built more than a hundred West Bays, mostly in the 100-foot plus range.

As yacht building began to expand in China, Bill took on the job of helping to construct a new facility in Zhuhai, where the newly-formed Tricon Marine was getting ready to build its first 92' explorer yacht. More recently, he moved to a shipyard in the Fuzhou area in Fujian province, not far from areas where several major North American yacht brands are currently being produced.

Paul Thunberg

Paul Thunberg grew up in a small landlocked town in Northern California. He discovered sailing after building a 12-foot plywood sailboat from plans found in a popular Mechanics Magazine. Paul later worked as a welder/fabricator at several shops building everything from houseboats to tunnel boring machines and, after moving to the San Francisco Bay area worked for Stone Boats building wood and fiberglass boats.

While living in San Francisco, Paul completed a Bruce Bingham designed Flicka hull and deck kit that was produced by Pacific Seacraft… and set sail for Hawaii, teaching himself celestial navigation on the way. After his cruising funds ran short, Paul returned to the mainland where he enlisted in the U.S. Coast Guard, eventually serving 21years on active duty as a mechanic and deck watch officer on vessels ranging from 41 to 140 feet.

After retiring to the Portland Oregon area, he retired from active duty and accepted a position as a civilian employee for the Coast Guard at Marine Safety Unit Portland. Paul graduated from the Westlawn School of Yacht Design under the tutelage of well-known designer Dave Gerr and has worked as an associate-designer on several Stephen R. Seaton projects, as well as pursuing his own design work.

Jan Whiting

Jan Whiting specializes in interior design and space utilization planning for new-builds and major refits. She was the driving force behind the very popular and successfully interiors of the Northwest 45s and 52s developed and built in Anacortes in the early 2000s, as well as those of the Integrity line.

With additional experience in restaurant and resort facilities planning, design, and management, Jan exhibits keen insight into what makes for comfortable living on a longer-term basis. She grew up in Baltimore around the water and came to love boats at an early age. In those days, her father would take her sailing aboard his Krogen ketch on Chesapeake Bay. These days, living and working in the Pacific Northwest, Jan gets out on the water at every possible opportunity. Her favorite cruising grounds range from the Pacific Northwest to Alaska. And some of her most cherished memories include sailing down the Baja peninsula to La Paz and visiting several Croatian sailing spots last summer aboard an Elan.

When she’s not out on the water, Jan spends time scouring the major boat shows for new ideas and applications that might be adapted to advantage in Seattle Yachts’ Northwest and Alaskan lines. Her assistance is also available, as a value-added service, to help new-build buyers develop interiors for their Northwest or Alaskan yachts that will stand the test of time for extended living and cruising aboard. She is, moreover, a great sounding board for those preparing to make the transition from shore-based to water-borne living.

Alaskan Yachts Returns with a New 66-foot Trawler

• By Yachting Staff
• Updated: August 8, 2018

On a Sunday afternoon in the late 1980s, yacht designer Steve Seaton climbed over a fence to break into a San Diego boatyard. A 66-foot wooden trawler was out of the water there, a boat that his icon, Art DeFever, had designed. Seaton walked beneath the port side, admiring the hull, failing to realize that somebody else was to starboard.

“We came around the corner, at the tail end of the keel, at the same moment,” Seaton recalls. “We looked at each other and he said, ‘What are you doing here?’ I didn’t know who it was. He said, ‘What are you doing here?’ I said, ‘I’m studying this Art DeFever boat. I’m a big fan of his.’ And he said, ‘What’s your name?’ And I said, ‘Steve Seaton.’ And he said, ‘I know you! I’m Art DeFever.’ Well I stood up straight — I’m ex-military, and I wanted to show him how much I respected him. And I hit my head on the boat.”

DeFever was beloved in offshore cruising circles. By some estimates, more than 3,800 boats were built to his designs before he died in 2013. Among them were the original Alaskan yachts in the 1960s.

The last Alaskan was finished in 2012, and the brand has been idle since. Now Peter Whiting, principal at Seattle Northwest Yachts, has bought Alaskan Yachts with the intent to resurrect it.

He hired Phil Friedman, former CEO of Palmer Johnson, as new-build manager, and he tapped Seaton to draw the Alaskan 66 Mark II, the first model in an updated line. Hull No. 1 of the 66 is on track to debut in late 2020 at a base price around $3.2 million, with an Alaskan 56 Mark II to follow.

“I personally believe that the Alaskan brand remains strong enough to garner significant attention,” Friedman says. “Once we’ve got the attention of the market, we believe that we have, in the new series, a winner.”

We recently purchased our Beneteau 36.7 with the assistance of Brad Marchant.  Due to the COVID-19 situation, we were unable to view the boat prior to purchasing it.  

Ralf and Helga Schmidtke | Fleming 65 Owners

Having decided after 30 years of sailing to change to power, the wide choice of brands made the selection task a daunting one. We wanted the most reliable, comfortable, safest, practical and best thought out boat that we could find. Attention to detail and quality was paramount, as was after purchase servicing. She also had to be an attractive boat that we could be proud of. After several months of extensive research, one name easily made it to the top.

A General Description of Motor Yacht OLSTEN

Timmerman Yachts completed the building motor yacht OLSTEN in 2004. Accordingly, she has the distinction of being built country of Russia. OLSTEN is a yacht which had design completed by Moscow Shipyard and Moscow Shipyard. This superyacht OLSTEN is able to accommodate a maximum of 12 passengers all told aboard together with around 6 professional crew. Finished and launched in 2004 the comparatively recent interior design and decor demonstrates the proficiency which are originating from Moscow Shipyard and the owner who commissioned the yacht.

Building & Designing relating to Luxury Yacht OLSTEN

Moscow Shipyard was the naval architect firm involved in the professional vessel composition for OLSTEN. Also the company Moscow Shipyard successfully worked on this undertaking. Interior designer Moscow Shipyard was commissioned for the internal interior styling. Russia is the country that Timmerman Yachts built their new build motor yacht in. After her formal launch in 2004 in Moscow the boat was then handed over to the owner after final finishing. Her hull was constructed with steel. The motor yacht main superstructure is made predominantly from aluminium. With a width of 6.8 m or 22.31 feet OLSTEN has moderate internal space. A fairly shallow draught of 1.7m (5.56ft) affects the number of harbours she can berth in, taking into account their particular depth.
