We have the Morgan Out Island 41' (Morgan design) and I believe that the 45' you are looking at would be the Henry Scheel designed Morgan. Most of those that own these vessels, Out Island or Scheel, seem to be pleased with them. They are, of course, heavier cruising boats and not good performers in light wind. I've heard of some complaints with their maneuverability, but they are usually voiced from those that are accustomed to operating a fin keel boat and they never developed the skills for piloting a longer keel,- particularly backing or turning in tight quarters. I've been living on my Morgans since 1973, so I must be pleased! Our two children did very well growing up on board.
