Designed by renowned naval architect Charles Morgan and built by Com-Pac Yachts beginning in 1990, this 36.75-foot masthead sloop represents a thoughtful approach to coastal cruising and comfortable sailing. Morgan's design philosophy emphasizes seaworthiness and ease of handling, evident in the boat's moderate proportions and traditional lines. The fiberglass construction features a shoal keel configuration drawing just four feet, making this vessel particularly appealing for cruising grounds with shallow waters or challenging harbor entrances. With a displacement of 12,500 pounds and substantial ballast of 5,700 pounds, the design prioritizes stability and comfort over pure performance. The comfort ratio of 22.96 reflects Morgan's focus on creating a steady, motion-friendly platform for extended cruising. The 570 square feet of sail area provides adequate power while maintaining manageable sail handling, especially important for couples or short-handed sailing. A hull speed of 7.22 knots offers respectable passage-making capability, while the masthead sloop rig configuration ensures versatile sail options for varying conditions. This design suits coastal cruising and protected offshore passages, appealing to sailors who value comfort, stability, and traditional sailing characteristics over racing performance. The shoal draft opens up cruising destinations typically inaccessible to deeper-draft vessels.
