Bill Garden 40' "Maggie Brown"

When it came time to think about selling a production power boat and get the yacht that truly filled the desire for comfort and speed on the water, it was the artistry of Bill Garden, Navel Architect and Schooner Creek Boat Works that created Maggie Brown.

Bill Garden of Sidney BC, Canada is by far one of the best-known designers of truly classic yachts. Bills designs instantly catch the eye of the true yachtsman and "Maggie Brown" will be no exception.

Maggie Brown


She is being meticulously built at Schooner Creek Boat Works utilizing their well-known “COVE” system of epoxy, wood and a foam core to create a motor yacht that will endure for years, preserving her timeless beauty. The fine entry and long clean run will allow her 420 hp Yanmar to propel her to a cruising speed of 16 knots and a flank speed of 22 knots. One glance at her bow and you can almost feel the bow wave curling off as if she were a naval destroyer at speed.

The addition of the bow thruster gives her all the maneuverability in tight quarters that could be had with twin engines at a fraction of the cost. This means she will get more miles of cruising enjoyment for the dollar than most any yacht around.

Her arrangement is simple with berths for 4, galley with refrigeration, stove with oven, head with shower, as well as a cockpit shower aft. The cabin is warmed during the early season with a Webasto heating system.

The pilothouse has great visibility and the overhangs aft give a large open area with protection from the rain or the intrusive rays of the sun.
