One of the most frequently asked questions we
hear is "What's the catch?"
Our answer is simple...THERE IS NO CATCH. The North Pacific is well built by skilled engineers and workers. Our yachts have thick, solid, hand-laid hulls and the superstructure has NIDA cored decks. We use heavy duty 316 stainless steel (1.25" railings). The wiring is nicely laid out and is tinned. Our equipment is all brand name including Cummins, Hurth, Northern Lights, Morse engine controls, Hynautic steering, Vetus windlasses and thrusters, Princess stoves, Norcold refrigerators, Tecma toilets, American Standard, Shurflo pumps, Blue Sea electrical panels, Lewmar hatches, Perko latches, Force 10 water heaters and much more. Our yachts are built to the American Boat and Yacht Council's (ABYC) standards. We use time consuming 'made by hand' techniques when laying-up the fiberglass or crafting the interior with real teak wood. This yacht is built to satisfy the most demanding boaters.
How can we offer these yachts at this unbeatable price?
We are able to offer North Pacific Yachts without compromising quality, at unbeatable prices for a number of reasons. Rather than trying to cut the material costs of production we concentrate on keeping our marketing and overhead costs low. We then pass on the savings to our customers. We do not work with distributors or dealers and do not offer commissions which add a great deal to the cost of most new yachts. We designed the North Pacific Yachts, own the tooling, follow the construction carefully throughout and are the sole distributors. Our goal is to build a high number of North Pacific Yachts and to spread our very low overhead costs out over many boats, not just a few. Finally, North Pacific Yachts are built in China. The Chinese workforce is highly skilled and can build quality yachts with excellent attention to detail. This quality simply can't be made for the same cost in most other countries and we pass on the savings to our customers.
How do we ensure the yachts meet our standards?
The factory employees are very conscientious and have worked hard to continuously
improve the quality and quality control of the yachts. We also have a full time inspector
in China. Our quality inspector is English born, but has been living in Asia working on
yachts, including many top brands for over 30 years.
