Morgan 30-1 Sloop, 1971,Pocket cruiser & racer, 10,000 lbs displacement 4,000 ballast 3.5 ft shoal draft to wiggle into any Chesapeake bay hole/creek. 7’8” draft with swing keel to compete upwind 6.1 ft headroom, yet low freeboard aspect. I can show you lots of great Potomac river locations to get away and get a meal. last 3 years, I raced her in the weekly DISC yacht races. Shes a proven racer placing first in DISC Spring 6-week Racing series in 2021. Fiberglass hull, 150% Genoa, New Main Sail, Spinnaker pole, VHF radio I purchased the boat 7 years ago, kept it in DC and sailed it north of bay bridge and down towards Norfolk, she is a great pocket cruiser, 6 berths (2-V berth, 2-salon, 1-setee, 1 quarter berth), comfortable sailor with reliable diesel engine. I am moving to a larger boat,

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
A similar boat called the KK30 was available in kit form.
An updated version called the MORGAN CLASSIC 300 has a different interior arrangement and slightly taller rig.
Morgan introduced another 30 footer in 1972 (listed here as the MORGAN 30-2) which is an entirely different design.
