1999 Northern Bay 36 - Kayla Rose
$249,500
Downeast • Northern Bay Hull • West Bay Boats Build
Kayla Rose is a well‑kept example of the respected Northern Bay 36, built from a bare hull purchased from Down East Boats & Composites and professionally finished by West Bay Boats of Steuben, Maine. The design is modeled after the classic Wilbur 34, offering the same timeless Downeast profile, soft ride, and efficient performance these hulls are known for. West Bay's Hinckley‑trained craftsmanship is evident throughout the layout and finish.
This vessel has been extensively cruised throughout the Pacific Northwest, including a full circumnavigation of Vancouver Island and more than twenty 10‑ to 14‑day expeditions along the west coast. Additional cruising includes Princess Louisa, Desolation Sound, Calvert Island, Rivers Inlet, Hakai Pass, Bella Bella, Goose Islands, and points farther north. Kayla Rose has been operated with care and maintained with pride.
A capable, proven cruiser with classic Downeast appeal, Kayla Rose is ideal for extended cruising, fishing, or versatile family use.
