Delivered in 2025, Mitan is a 39.11m expedition yacht built by Turkish shipyard Numarine. Her interior design and exterior styling comes from the drawing boards of Can Yalman, while Umberto Tagliavini is responsible for her naval architecture.
Key Features
- Explorer hull with 6,000nm range @ 8 knots
- Full-beam master suite on main deck
- Aft pool with glass transom
- Full-beam hydraulic swim platform
Design & Construction
Designed around a displacement steel hull and an aluminium superstructure she features a 8.04m beam and a 2.51m draft. The yacht is built over 3 decks with an internal volume of 499 GT (Gross Tonnes).
This was the second yacht built on the 40MXP design. The yacht was designed and constructed in compliance with the Lloyds Register technical standards. Launched in September 2025 this yacht undertook sea trials over the following months. She was delivered to her owners in October 2025.
Exterior Design
Mitan is a 39.42m (129.3ft) Numarine 40MXP, with exterior design by Can Yalman and naval architecture by Umberto Tagliavini. The model keeps the steel hull, 8.02m (26.3ft) beam and long-range engineering of the successful 37XP, but changes how the yacht works once the anchor goes down.
The initials explain the idea. The ‘M’ stands for Mediterranean, and most of the changes sit around the open decks. Numarine moved the aft end of the saloon forward by about 3m (9.8ft), giving up enclosed volume to create a much larger cockpit. Dining sits nearest the saloon and bar, a lower lounge occupies the middle level, and a glass-backed spa pool fills the stern. The seats face out towards the water, so guests enjoy the anchorage instead of staring back at the superstructure.
A full-beam hydraulic platform sits directly below the pool. Lowered into the sea, it becomes a broad bathing terrace across almost the yacht’s entire beam and gives swimmers an easy route back to the pool. The arrangement replaces the enclosed beach club of the 37XP with a brighter, more open stern that suits warm-weather cruising.
The upper decks retain more of the explorer character. Mitan carries her tender, personal watercraft and other equipment on a dedicated boat deck served by a 3-tonne crane. Once the tender is launched, it can be moved to the bathing platform to free the deck for guest use. Other 40MXP owners can choose a second pool here, which shows how much freedom Numarine allows within the same structure.
Mitan’s sundeck is set up entirely for guests, with no upper helm. A proper dining table seats 12 without crowding, while a large bar, refrigerated storage and a double grill make the deck capable of handling a full meal without constant trips below. A shaded lounge sits beneath the hardtop and sunpads fill the open aft section, so dining, reading and sunbathing can all happen at once without fighting for the same patch of deck.
The foredeck is more practical. Sunpads give guests a quiet place to sit, but anchors and mooring equipment take priority. That balance suits a yacht built to cover serious distances, where safe deck work matters as much as another lounge.

Interior Design
Can Yalman also designed Mitan’s interior, but the layout and finishes were shaped closely around the owner. Numarine offers far more freedom than most yachts in this class, so two 40MXPs can share the same hull and machinery while feeling quite different inside.
Mitan’s main saloon has to serve a large guest group, and its size makes sense once all six cabins are occupied. A substantial lounge sits aft, with a dining table for up to 14 further forward and a bar close at hand. Full-height glazing runs down both sides, while sliding doors open onto the side decks and aft cockpit. There is plenty of furniture, but the clear floor area keeps the room from feeling packed.
The galley sits within the crew service area and is built for long stays aboard. It includes Miele appliances, two ovens, a hob, dishwasher, coffee machine, several refrigerators and an ice maker. A dumbwaiter sends food directly to the upper deck, while a crew door opens onto the side deck. Those details cut down service routes and help the crew look after several dining areas without crossing guest spaces each time.
A flexible room forward on the main deck can change with the owner’s priorities. On Mitan it serves as a snug with a nearby day head, though the same space can become a gym, more storage or an enlarged dressing area for the forward suite. This is one of several places where the 40MXP feels semi-custom in the useful sense, not just through a choice of fabrics and timber.
The wheelhouse sits high and far forward, with four large multifunction screens bringing navigation, cameras, engine data and onboard systems into one place. Wing stations on both sides and a further docking station aft help the captain manage the yacht’s 8.02m (26.3ft) beam and 346-tonne displacement. Seating behind the helm allows owners or guests to join long passages, and the captain’s cabin is directly alongside.
Accommodation
Mitan accommodates up to 12 guests in six cabins, although the 40MXP platform offers several ways to arrange them. The owner’s suite can sit on the bridge deck, main deck or lower deck, which is an unusual degree of choice on a yacht of this size.
Mitan uses the bridge deck as the owner’s suite in place of a conventional skylounge. This gives the owner more privacy, longer views and opening windows on both sides for fresh air. The cabin has space for a sofa, desk and good storage, so it works as a private living room during the day as well as a bedroom. Its ensuite includes opposing washbasins, a rainfall shower and a built-in bench.
A second large suite sits forward on the main deck. This cabin has broad windows on both sides, a seating area, generous storage and a full-width bathroom behind the bed. On other 40MXPs it can become the principal owner’s cabin, with part of the adjoining passage used to enlarge the wardrobe or dressing room.
The lower deck adds three twin cabins and a full-beam suite with two queen-size beds. That aft suite also has a settee, walk-in wardrobe and a large bathroom, and its scale means it can serve as another owner-grade cabin. It can also be divided into two twins when berth numbers matter more than room size.
Mitan’s twin cabins have wider berths than many yachts in this class, good space between the beds and overhead storage that keeps the floor clear. Each has its own bathroom with a marble basin and separate rainfall shower, while televisions are hidden behind mirrors with built-in soundbars.
One lower-deck room can also be used as a laundry and overflow crew space, with storage, laundry equipment and an optional single berth. Returning it to guest use gives the owner another cabin option, so the same hull can suit private family cruising, long trips with friends or charter.
Crew accommodation sits aft and provides four cabins for up to eight people, supported by a crew mess and direct access into the guest area. This allows cabins to be serviced without repeated trips through the saloon. A small refreshment station in the guest lobby also lets guests make coffee or tea without heading upstairs or calling the crew.
Performance & Capabilities
Mitan uses the same core engineering that helped make the Numarine 37XP successful. A steel hull provides the strength and repairability expected of a long-range explorer, while the lighter FRP composite superstructure helps keep weight down higher in the yacht.
Twin 800hp MAN D2868 LE425 diesel engines drive conventional shafts. Top speed is around 14 knots, while the yacht cruises most efficiently at 8 knots. At that pace, Numarine quotes a range of 6,000 nautical miles, giving Mitan genuine ocean-crossing ability and reducing the need to plan each trip around fuel stops.
That modest cruising speed is part of the trade-off. Mitan does not chase the pace of a semi-displacement yacht, but her long legs, large stores and substantial machinery spaces suit owners who plan to spend weeks away. Three generators, a watermaker and generous fuel capacity support that role.
The engine room benefits from the compact size of the MAN engines. There is good headroom, clear access around the machinery and enough room to inspect systems without crawling into tight corners. Twin fuel filters, three generators and the watermaker all sit within a space arranged for routine checks and maintenance, which matters on a yacht expected to travel far from major ports.
