Morgan 45
11 / 45 - score 58%
The Morgan 45 is a 45.67ft masthead sloop designed by Charles Morgan and built in fiberglass by Morgan Yachts between 1966 and 1970.
12 units have been built.
The Morgan 45 is a heavy sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is average. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
