Seller's Description

1975 Morgan Out Island Great Classic Sailboat at a fantastic price and ready for her next adventure. In 2022, we sailed Nora from NC to Maine and back. It was an amazing trip, she is an amazing vessel but my Fiance wanted a bigger and faster powerboat; what guy could say no to that? So with much thought and hesitation, we are placing Nora on the market to find her next adventure. She has had numerous upgrades over the years that total more than the asking price. Bimini cover that shades the entire cockpit Removable helm chair for long distance comfort Raise and drop anchor from the cockpit. Radar arch that will lift a 12foot dingy and 15hp motor without hesitation. On our trip, we have arrived, dropped the anchor and dingy in under 10 minutes to go ashore. The motor stays on your tender hooked up and ready to go! 40 gallon per hour water maker that runs on 12 volt, take a shower every night! We had a washing machine on board that we used every other day. Nearly queen size bed in the main salon that can easily be removed by a few screws if you want to sleep in the v-Berth. HUGE amounts of storage under the bed! We still have the table if you want to convert back. New carpet throughout the boat. It is rolled up as seen in the pictures

Equipment: 40 GPH Watermaker Garmin GPS Trace 1800 inverter 2nd alternator bracket included Windlass, 80 ft chain, 300 rope

Calculations

Hull Speed
7.3 kn
Classic: 7.03 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

7.26 knots
Classic formula: 7.03 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
14.1
<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.
14.05
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
34.5
<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

34.48
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
311.5
275-350: heavy

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
311.48
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
28.4
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
28.37
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
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
1.94
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
