2015 16m McMillan Sloop

16m McMillan Centre Cockpit – Offshore Capability, Ready for Completion

Presenting a rare and compelling opportunity to secure a substantial offshore cruising yacht at an advanced stage of construction. This 16m McMillan Centre Cockpit, launched in 2015, offers serious bluewater pedigree combined with the ability for her next owner to complete and personalise to their exact specifications.

Designed and built by N.W. McMillan, this round bilge, fin keel yacht showcases traditional craftsmanship with triple diagonal Kahikatea construction, fully glassed over for strength, durability, and long-term reliability. Her solid structure and proven design provide an exceptional platform for extended offshore cruising.

Powered by a 110hp Yanmar 4JH4-HTE turbo diesel (new in 2014) with very low hours, she delivers dependable auxiliary performance, cruising comfortably at 6 knots and capable of reaching 9 knots under power. A ZF shaft drive paired with a Bryford self-pitching propeller ensures efficient propulsion and ease of handling.

Rigged for a Young 43 configuration, the chainplates are already in place, and Parker Marine Group can assist with sourcing and completing the rig, making the final stages of fit-out straightforward for the right buyer.
