Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Morgan Out Island 37/372 is a robust cruising sloop designed by Charles Morgan and built by Morgan Yachts (USA) from 1976–1979. With a displacement of 18000.0 lb and a full/long keel, this vessel prioritizes stability and comfort over speed, reflecting its origins as a serious offshore cruiser.

Best for:
This boat is ideally suited for experienced coastal and offshore cruisers who value heavy displacement comfort and traditional sailing characteristics over high-performance racing metrics.
Bluewater capability:
With a D/L ratio of 356.43, a Capsize ratio of 1.75, and a full/long keel, the Morgan Out Island 37/372 is well-regarded for offshore passage-making due to its exceptional stability and seakeeping abilities.
Comparables:
Comparable vessels include the Tartan 37 and O'Day 38, which share similar production eras and heavy-displacement cruising roles, though the Morgan distinguishes itself with a more specialized bluewater hull form.
