Seller's Description
Re-listed at a reduced price, this stout & capable Morgan 44 has carried the owner across the Atlantic and through the Caribbean in a wide variety of conditions over the last 2 years. Boasting the highly-sought after center cockpit design with massive Master stateroom aft, the vessel has been impeccably maintained and holds a recent rigging inspection, new mainsail & Quantum 135% genoa, new stack pack & lazy jacks, and many more upgrades.
Above decks, the Morgan 44s raised gunwales and flat, wide deck provide a safe & comfortable surface for moving forward while underway or at anchor. Equipped with upgraded Harken furling, a new Rocna anchor, new chain, windlass (with remote), jacklines, varnished teak handrails, and a spacious aft deck, this yacht is setup for proper offshore cruising. Recently serviced winches, new running & standing rigging, Garmin touchscreen GPS chartplotter with VHF repeater, Radar, a robust new Bimini & dodger with integrated solar, and swim platform astern are just some of the deckside features of the vessel.
Below deck, this yacht is setup for comfort and safety both offshore and at anchor. The gorgeous Corian countertops in the galley & head brighten up the living space which also permits positive airflow from numerous upgraded Lewmar deck hatches. Having been lived aboard for many years, this Morgan 44 is setup with WiFi, AIS, SSB, Garmin sat comms, Honda generator, Rainman water maker, air conditioning, 2000W integrated inverter with 110V outlets, upgraded electrical/charging system, and interior LED strip lighting. The 66hp Yanmar diesel motor has a rebuilt transmission and upgraded alternator, in addition to recent professional servicing of all components.
Currently located in Bequia, St. Vincent & the Grenadines, the yacht is able to be delivered to any location in the Caribbean or USA East Coast at expense to accommodate the sale.

Calculations
- Hull Speed

9.0 kn
Classic: 7.97 kn
Hull Speed
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.
Formula
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
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
15.5
<16: under powered
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
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.
Formula
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
- SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D: Displacement in pounds.
- Ballast/Displacement
-
34.9
<40: less stiff, less powerful
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
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.
Formula
Ballast / Displacement * 100
- Displacement/Length
-
237.8
200-300: moderate
Displacement / Length Ratio
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.
Formula
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- Comfort Ratio
-
29.7
20-30: coastal cruiser
Comfort Ratio
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.
Formula
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- Capsize Screening
-
1.9
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages
Capsize Screening Formula
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.
Formula
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
