Specifications
Morgan Out Island 41 (1982) – characterful ketch for comfortable long-term living aboard
The 1982 Morgan Out Island 41 is a classically designed sailing yacht with a pronounced offshore profile and a layout that lends itself to longer voyages and comfortable living aboard. With an overall length of 12.60 metres, a beam of 4.30 metres and an S-shaped polyester hull, this vessel offers a combination of stability, space and a distinctive, timeless appearance. This particular example also has an appealing history: the yacht has completed a circumnavigation and originally comes from the United States. It has since made its way to the Netherlands and has been used on both inland waters and at sea, for leisure cruising and holidays.
Morgan Out Island 41 now in the online auction. Anyone can bid up to and including 20 April 2026.
Design, hull and handling characteristics
The Out Island 41 is known as a seaworthy and comfortable sailing yacht, with good course-keeping and a calm motion in the waves as key advantages. The S-shaped hull contributes to predictable handling and a pleasant balance between speed and comfort. With a draft of 1.30 metres, the yacht is also attractive for those who want to cruise not only coastal waters and open sea, but also enjoy inland waterways. The air draft of approximately 19 metres makes the yacht suitable for many cruising areas, taking fixed bridges into account.
Steering is via an outside wheel with a single rudder. For manoeuvring in harbours and tight situations, an electric bow thruster is fitted, making docking and turning noticeably easier, especially in wind or current.
Engine and performance
On board is a Yanmar diesel inboard engine of 76 hp (year of manufacture 2001), electrically started and equipped with four cylinders. This power output suits the size and weight of the vessel (approx. 12,247 kg) well and provides a solid basis for motoring on rivers, canals or in calm conditions at sea. The stated fuel consumption is around 1.5 litres per hour, which is attractive for longer passages. Cruising speed is approximately 15 km/h and maximum speed approximately 20 km/h. Monitoring equipment includes, among other things, an oil pressure gauge and a temperature gauge. In 2024, a new water pump was installed for the engine, a relevant upgrade for reliability and cooling.
Power supply and independent cruising
This Morgan Out Island 41 offers the ability to stay independent of shore power for several days. The yacht is equipped with an Onan generator (model 4.0) and an electrical system with multiple voltages: 12V, 24V, 110V and 220V. In 2022, a Bronson WTI 3000 wall transformer (3000 watts) was installed, allowing both 110V and 220V input and providing both 110V and 220V output. This is particularly practical for those using equipment from different systems or frequently moving between marinas and countries.
In addition, the yacht is fitted with, among other things, a battery charger, alternator, inverter, voltmeter and a solar panel. The vessel has seven batteries with a total capacity of 90 Ah, which—combined with generator and solar support—contributes to flexible onboard energy management.
Comfort and interior: headroom, climate and berths
Inside, the generous headroom of approximately 2.10 metres stands out immediately, significantly enhancing onboard comfort, especially during longer stays. Equipment includes air conditioning, hot-air heating, hot water, a shower, a dinette and a cooker. The electric toilet does not discharge directly into open water, and there is a 50-litre holding tank. The fresh water capacity of no less than 800 litres is a strong point for longer trips, anchoring in quiet bays or comfortable stays without daily marina stops.
In terms of berths, the yacht offers four fixed sleeping places plus additional options for up to seven extra berths, making it interesting for families, guests or a crew on longer passages. A king-size bed is explicitly mentioned, fitting the liveaboard-style comfort for which the Out Island series is known. For ventilation and light, there are four deck hatches. In addition, fourteen insect screens were installed in 2021 and can be fully opened—an practical addition for summer evenings and cruising in waterside areas.
Rigging, deck equipment and outdoor living
This Morgan is configured as a ketch with two aluminium masts and three sails, including a mainsail. The headsail has a furling system, making sailing with a small crew more accessible. The condition of the sails is described as reasonable, giving buyers the opportunity to further optimise the sail plan to suit their ambitions and cruising area.
On deck, the yacht is set up for comfortable outdoor living, with a bimini, sprayhood, cockpit table and exterior cushions. A teak deck, bow and stern seats and a swim ladder enhance the classic character and ease of use in harbour or at anchor. For anchoring, there are two anchors with chain and line, plus an electric windlass, making deployment and retrieval of the anchor significantly easier.
Navigation and safety
For navigation, the basic equipment is complete, including GPS, depth sounder, log/speedometer, VHF radio and autopilot. This supports both relaxed cruising and longer crossings. In terms of safety, a liferaft is present as well as an electric bilge pump.
