Millboot Kapiteinsloep 600 (2006) – electric composite captain’s sloop with trailer
The 2006 Millboot Kapiteinsloep 600 is a characterful 6.00-metre captain’s sloop, built by Mill Boats and finished in composite with a multi-chine hull. This hull type is known for its stable position in the water and pleasant handling on a wide range of inland waterways. With a beam of 2.05 metres, a shallow draft of approx. 0.40 metres and an air draft of around 0.90 metres, this sloop is particularly suitable for canals, ditches, waterways and lakes, where manoeuvrability and limited height often make all the difference. The overall design is intended for relaxed cruising, day trips and even a simple weekend away.
What makes this captain’s sloop especially attractive to lovers of quiet boating is its electric propulsion. The boat is equipped with an Aquapella 2500MKII inboard electric motor (model PMG 132 with flange), electrically started and with a stated running time of approx. 150 hours. In practice, electric boating means: little noise, no exhaust fumes and a relaxed atmosphere on board—ideal for conversation, enjoying nature and cruising through quiet areas.

Hull, build and appearance
The Kapiteinsloep 600 is built in composite and features a multi-chine hull shape, contributing to good tracking and stability at low to medium speeds. The boat will be repainted, which is appealing to buyers who value a fresh, well-kept appearance. The yard details list build number KS18. Steering is via an externally mounted tiller, which suits the classic sloop feel: direct contact with the water, clear all-round visibility and intuitive control when manoeuvring in narrow passages or when docking.
Electric boating: quiet, comfortable and ideal for inland waters
The electric inboard installation makes this sloop particularly suitable for areas where quiet and low-emission boating are important. On canals and nature waters you benefit from whisper-quiet propulsion: you mainly hear the water lapping along the hull and the sounds of the surroundings. This makes the Millboot Kapiteinsloep 600 attractive for relaxed leisure cruising, but also for longer trips where comfort and tranquillity matter.
The electrical system is set up for practical use with shore power, a battery charger and an inverter. There are six batteries on board with a total stated capacity of 600 and a 24V onboard system. This provides a solid basis for electric cruising and the use of onboard consumers. For buyers who like to berth in a marina or at a mooring with power supply, shore power is a convenient addition, as charging and using equipment on board can easily be combined.
Layout and onboard possibilities
This captain’s sloop is designed for comfortable seating and relaxed cruising, with a layout that also allows for a simple overnight stay. The forward benches can be used in such a way that two people can sleep for a night, making the boat interesting for a spontaneous weekend away or a multi-day trip on inland waters. This positions the sloop not only as a day boat, but also as a compact cruising sloop with extra possibilities.
A manual toilet is fitted on board, with the discharge not leading directly into open water. This is a practical and environmentally conscious detail for those who like to spend longer periods on the water or cruise in areas with stricter regulations.
Equipment, cockpit comfort and boating in any conditions
For shelter and flexibility, the boat is equipped with a cockpit tent, allowing you to remain comfortable and continue cruising even in changeable weather. Fenders and lines are included, making docking and mooring immediately practical. In addition, there are two anchors on board, attached with line—useful for breaks on quiet water or when you want to lie at anchor.
Maintenance information and recent work
The boat was last taken out of the water for maintenance in 2026. The last antifouling treatment dates from 2025, which is relevant for buyers who intend to keep the boat in the water during the season.
Including road trailer: easy transport and storage
The sale includes a road trailer with registration: an Ohlemeier trailer (year of manufacture 2000), adapted for this sloop. The trailer is braked, has a single axle, four rollers and a trailer winch, with a payload capacity of 1300 kg. This makes transport to other cruising areas, winter storage or maintenance locations much more accessible. For buyers who like to alternate between different lakes, routes or regions, a suitable boat trailer is a major advantage.
This Millboot Kapiteinsloep 600 combines classic sloop styling with the comfort of electric boating, practical equipment and the freedom of your own transport. An attractive choice for anyone looking for an electric sloop for inland waterways, canals and lakes, with the option not only to cruise but also to stay on board overnight from time to time.
