Custom and Semi-custom Yachts

Built to Stir Your Soul.

There's a lot more to our yachts than just fiberglass and varnished joinery. Every model we build starts with passion - both ours and yours. We strive to design, build and represent some of the most beautiful boats on the water, but just as important is our commitment to providing our customers with a product that is carefully crafted to suit them.

Below you will find a sampling of the models we currently offer (along with design concepts of models we hope to offer soon). If you can't find a perfect fit amongst our existing models, we'd be happy to discuss designing one just for you.

What's in a Name?

What exactly is a "Wasque"? And better yet, how in the world do you pronounce it?

It's way-skwee. And, unless you're a descendant of the Algonquin tribe, don't feel bad if you didn't know that. The word "Wasque" is actually a derivative of the Algonquin word "wannasque", meaning "the ending". This name was given to a piece of land on the southeast corner of Martha's Vineyard, where the Algonquin people would spend their summers. Wasque Point is now a protected property managed by The Trustees of Reservations and open to visitors year round.

Wasque 26

In the early 1970s, a group of fishermen were taken by the lines of a little bass boat they spotted working the waters along the Vineyard shore, and decided to start building the boat on a limited production basis. With that, Vineyard Yachts was opened for business and, borrowing the name of what had become a popular fishing spot, the first Wasque 26 was introduced to the boating public. She quickly gained notoriety for both her gorgeous lines and impressive seaworthiness. A yachting icon was born.

Though Vineyard Yachts has long sinced closed its doors, the Wasque lineage still lives on. Aside from advancements in design and engineering, our Wasque 26 Classic is an exact copy of the original. The same classic lines that first stirred those fishermens' souls remain perfectly intact. For a design as timeless as a Wasque, "the ending" never seems to be in sight.
