Description
The Morgan Giles yard was founded in Teignmouth in 1920 and continued for many years building high quality timber racing yachts for prestigious clients (such as Britannia RN College, amongst many others).
As GRP construction became popular the yard evolved and the Morgan Giles 30 was originally a one off, for the yard's chief designer's own use, but up until 1996 over 70 boats had been built. Many of these are happily sailing and there is an active class association (MG30.org.uk).
They were built to go to sea; strong and with fine lines and lead ballast in her encapsulated keel for stability.
Good deck working access and a safe and secure cockpit make her ideal for short handed cruising (most lines lead aft) and she's wheel steered, unlike many of the designs of this era.
There are many differing interior layouts, this is a very seamanlike version, not hugely voluminous but everything has a place and she feels a lot bigger than she actually is.
She presents well, is clean and fresh and having served her current owners well for the last 15 years she is now ashore and available for easy inspection.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
