Bleed’n Green — 1982 Morgan 32 — Lake Macatawa, Michigan

The boat

A roomy family cruiser that handles easily.

Ted Brewer and Jack Corey gave the Morgan 32 a long shoal keel and a skeg-hung rudder — a hull that tracks, carries her way through Lake Michigan chop, and forgives a shorthanded crew.

Below, the volume is unusual for the length: full standing headroom, opposing settees in the main cabin, a proper galley to port, an enclosed head, and a forward cabin you can make up as a double. Teak joinery throughout, oiled and dry.

Freshwater her whole life. Rigged, commissioned, and lying in her slip at Lake Macatawa — walk aboard and go sailing.
