About the MORGAN OUT ISLAND 416

Replacing the MORGAN OUT ISLAND 415, this version, (cutter or ketch) has signifcantly greater sail area.

Sailpages Buyer's Take

Designed by Charles Morgan and built by Morgan Yachts (USA) from 1981–1985, the Morgan Out Island 416 is a robust ketch-rigged cruiser. With a displacement of 27000.0 lb and a full/long keel, it embodies the classic heavy-displacement offshore cruising philosophy of its era.

Best for:
This boat suits experienced coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize seakeeping and comfort over speed, particularly those who appreciate the balanced handling of a masthead ketch rig.
Bluewater capability:
With a D/L ratio of 306.68, a capsize ratio of 1.85, and a full/long keel, the 416 is well-suited for bluewater cruising, offering exceptional stability and motion comfort in heavy seas.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the Morgan 461 and other heavy-displacement ketches from the early 1980s, such as the Hallberg-Rassy 42, due to their shared emphasis on full keels, high displacement, and offshore durability.
