The Morgan 44 is a 44-foot center-cockpit cruising sailboat designed by Nelson and Merrick and built by the Morgan division of Catalina Yachts.0:24 Unlike the earlier Morgan Out Island series, the 44 features a performance-oriented hull with a 35-foot 4-inch waterline, a 5-foot draft, and a skeg-supported rudder.1:38 The vessel carries 215 gallons of water and 50 gallons of fuel, with a layout that includes two private cabins, two heads, and a walk-in engine room accessible via a passageway.3:07 Owners report consistent 150-nautical-mile days and capable performance on a reach, though the 23,500-pound displacement requires significant wind to maintain speed.6:26 Prospective buyers should prioritize boats with documented maintenance histories, specifically regarding standing rigging, electrical systems, and tank integrity.8:32 Market prices for the model typically range from $70,000 to over $100,000 depending on the condition and recent refits.8:15 The design prioritizes long-distance cruising comfort and mechanical accessibility over light-air racing performance.
