Relisting of an original expired post here...
(some questions may have been answered)

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Man Oh man…. I don’t want to do this, as financial maturity is not one of my strong character traits…

That being said, I REALLY should sell my Morgan Out Island, as I use her very rarely any more… I thought I would throw her out here on CF and see if there was anybody interested before listing her…

She’s an island warrior in Southern California, home port being Marina del Rey … Stout as a tank, and easily handles anything thrown at her, but just as happy taking non sailors on the reach to Malibu, and BBQ on the run home… A perfect daysail in Santa Monica Bay…

For those looking who aren’t familiar with the design, a broker’s quote sums it up:

Possibly the largest 33' sailboat you will ever see, the Morgan is a great boat to live aboard and "go some where". Built like a tank, the full keel with protected rudder is a great choice for cruising grounds.

These boats are an incredibly thick layup, heavy, have a fantastic sea motion and reduced heel. With 3’11” draft and a fully encapsulated keel, grounding and keel anxiety are non issues…

I think she’s worth $25k+ all day long… But I also think I’m handsome… Sooo… Offers around the $20k mark are highly encouraged…

Details and more pics to follow...
