About
169’ Classic Expedition Yacht | Ice-Class Steel | 10 Guest Cabins | Commercially Registered
BEAUPORT represents a rare opportunity to acquire a true ocean-going expedition platform with proven pedigree, substantial volume, and significant recent capital investment. Originally constructed in Quebec for Canadian Coast Guard service and engineered for ice operations, she was built to standards that exceed conventional yacht construction, a distinction that defines her today as a serious long-range vessel rather than a simple conversion.
Reimagined as an explorer yacht in the early 1990s and continuously upgraded since, BEAUPORT combines commercial-grade robustness with comfortable, yacht-style accommodations. Her steel hull and superstructure, reinforced framing, and round-bilge displacement form deliver exceptional seakeeping and inherent stability. Paired with fin stabilizers and impressive fuel capacity, she is designed for economical transoceanic cruising while maintaining outstanding operational efficiency, versatility, and resilience for a vessel of her scale.
Deck Space & Mission Capability
The mission profile of BEAUPORT is exceptional within her size range. She delivers the deck volume, lift capacity, and logistical flexibility typically associated with significantly larger expedition vessels, while maintaining comparatively efficient operating economics.
Her expansive deck layout is a defining feature. The foredeck is fitted with twin 2,000 lb Navy anchors and substantial ground tackle, reinforcing her commercial-grade capability. An 8-ton telescopic hydraulic crane on the foredeck supports serious expedition logistics, heavy equipment deployment and tender handling with ease.
The upper boat deck provides extensive operational space and has historically supported helicopter operations; there are two independent knuckle cranes on either side of the funnel that can be used to accommodate tenders up to 25 feet in length.
Currently, she carries a 29’ Blackfin fishing boat with twin diesel engines and a 22’ Boston Whaler Dauntless center console. However, her true potential lies in her adaptability.
She can accommodate:
● Up to 22 guests in 10 cabins
● Up to 12 crew in 6 cabins, though she comfortably operates with a crew of 9
● Two tenders up to 40 feet on the foredeck
● Two additional tenders up to 25 feet positioned port and starboard of the funnel, launched via independent hydraulic knuckle cranes, alternatively configurable for an SUV, submersible, or specialized equipment
● Additional deck space for inflatables, dinghies, or personal watercraft
● A designated helicopter landing area
● A vast crane accessible cargo hold capable of transporting quad bikes, motorcycles, ATVs, spare parts, expedition provisions, and mission-specific gear
This versatility positions BEAUPORT as a genuine multi-role platform, equally suited for luxury expedition cruising, shadow yacht operations, commercial charter ventures, scientific and research programs, adventure-based tourism, or private global exploration.
Layout & Accommodation
It's hard to fathom the layout and vast spaces that she offers so we have attached a full 30 minute walkaround video to this listing, The yacht offers accommodation for up to 22 guests in 10 staterooms, including a spacious owner’s suite on a private deck level with king berth, walk-in closet, Jacuzzi tub, and direct access to exterior decks. Guest areas are thoughtfully located on the Main deck and lower deck aft, separated from crew operations, allowing efficient service flow and privacy.
A formal dining salon for 12, expansive main deck lounge, skylounge, and covered alfresco dining areas create multiple social environments for both private use and commercial charter programs. The interior has benefited from continued upgrades, most recently including significant refurbishment in 2023.
Machinery & Systems
Powered by twin 640HP Fairbanks Morse opposed-piston diesel engines, BEAUPORT delivers dependable propulsion with exceptional fuel efficiency for a vessel of her displacement. Renowned for their durability and longevity, these engines are considered among the most robust marine powerplants ever produced. In addition to their proven reliability, the vessel carries a substantial onboard inventory of spare parts, and factory service, parts, and technical support remain actively available through Fairbanks Morse.
Electrical generation is handled by twin 120 kW John Deere generators dedicated to house loads, ensuring consistent and reliable onboard power. A separate auxiliary generator equipped with PTO capability supports hydraulic systems, including deck cranes and stabilizers, while a fourth emergency generator provides an additional layer of redundancy.
The machinery spaces reflect her commercial origins, expansive, intelligently arranged, and engineered with serviceability and access as primary priorities. Every system is laid out with practicality in mind, allowing efficient maintenance and long-term operational resilience comparable to that of a commercial vessel.

Commercial Registration & Investment Case
Registered for commercial use and compliant with MARPOL regulations, BEAUPORT is positioned as a highly versatile revenue-generating platform or strategic operational asset.
Her scale, deck capacity, and proven expedition pedigree make her ideally suited for:
● High-end adventure and expedition charter programs
● Yacht fleet support and shadow vessel operations
● Scientific research and exploration initiatives
● Expedition tourism and remote destination programs
● Private global cruising with full logistical capability
● Corporate hospitality and large-scale events
Few vessels in this size category combine commercial compliance, heavy-lift capability, helicopter operations, and substantial personnel capacity within a single platform. BEAUPORT offers not only lifestyle value but also clear commercial and operational potential.
Her 683 GT of internal volume places her firmly in competition with many modern explorer yachts, yet at a fraction of today’s replacement cost, offering substantial scale, capability, and presence without the capital outlay of a new build.
She is currently held within a Panamanian foundation structure, an arrangement that is both tax-efficient and highly desirable for international ownership, providing flexibility and potential advantages depending on the buyer’s jurisdiction and operating strategy.
The Company offers the details of this vessel in good faith but cannot guarantee or warrant the accuracy of this information nor warrant the condition of the vessel. A buyer should instruct his agents, or his surveyors, to investigate such details as the buyer desires validated.
