About the MOORINGS 60
Also sold as MORGAN 60.
The Moorings 60 is a rare 1980-era ketch designed and built by Morgan Yachts, with an unknown total hull count. This vessel represents a unique collaboration between the two builders, featuring a 59.92 ft LOA and a heavy 60000.0 lb displacement that prioritizes stability and comfort over speed.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for experienced coastal cruisers and those seeking a spacious, stable platform for family cruising, rather than high-performance racing or solo bluewater expeditions.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a high displacement of 60000.0 lb and a low capsize ratio of 1.62, the boat offers strong inherent stability for coastal and protected offshore passages, though its age and specific build history require careful verification for true bluewater readiness.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Morgan 51 and other heavy-displacement ketches from the late 1970s and early 1980s, as they share similar design philosophies focused on comfort and robust construction.
