1971 Morgan 40 Cruising Ketch

PRICE REDUCED AGAIN... WHAT WAS ONCE A BARGAIN IS NOW A SUPER BARGAIN!!!!

This is an absolutely incredible and proven blue water cruiser. The seller has owned this boat for 35 years she has circled the globe and done several extensive trips of the Carribean. If you are looking for a functional blue water boat for Island hoping in the Carribean or even bolder trips around the globe, look no further, this boat has been there and done that. 

Boat is incredibly solid underfoot, has a newer Kabota Diesel Engine and she has also had a complete refit in Thailand in 2003. (And additional work as needed) This boat needs absolutely nothing for immediate enjoyment and easy jaunts to the Keys and the Bahamas. She is currently on the hard and in storage, but has been run just a few weeks ago. The engine fires right up 

• Newer Kabota Engine (must see photos) - Fresh Water Cooled - 50 HP - 3000 hours 
• Pilot House w Hard Top and full Enclosure 
• Dinghy Davits w Solar Panel Mount and Solar Panel 
• Inflatable 8' Dinghy (slow leak on one side) and 8 HP Yamaha Outboard 
• Wind Generator 
• Full Electronics (They are older) 
• Large and Spacious Interior

• Stateroom and Head Compartment Forward 

I fell in love with this boat the second I saw her in person, and it kept getting better as I got onboard and walk around. The boat is as charming as it is sexy. The seller has owned this boat for 35 years. She has circumnavigated the globe, he has done numerous other excursions as well, if this boat could only talk.... 

The boat itself has been very well cared for. She is solid underfoot stanchions all seem secure and well mounted. The engine is in great shape, still runs strong as ever. This boat is set up and built for long voyages and extended time away from civilization. 

The last return was last year from a Caribbean trip the boat did wonderfully she was brought back and stored for the next upcoming season. When returning this year to sail again it was at that time realized that time has caught up and she could not comfortable sail any longer. It was time to put this beautiful boat on the market. 

This is in no way a desperation sale, but the seller does want it sold. She would prefer it goes to a cruising couple that will use her, and love her the way she has for the last 35 years. 

I feel the asking price is extremely reasonable for the boat as she sits, but she does need sold.. so bring me what you feel is a reasonable offer and maybe you can set off around the globe in the near future.
