I am considering purchasing a boat in the Tallahassee area that the owner is calling a "Morgan 22" -- but I cannot find any reference to a Morgan 22 on the web and the owner has no manuals or other paperwork on the craft. So, was there ever such a boat at a "Morgan 22" or is this a Catalina or Capri with a confused owner? If there is such a thing as a Morgan 22, does anyone know where I could find some specifications and other information about it?

Morgan 22

James, I learned to race on a 1969 Morgan 22 owned by a guy named George Alston in Jacksonville, FL. These a fast, well built boats and he won just abouth everything he entered, including the annual sailing award for most wins/points in a year. It is sort of a boxy version of a Catalina 22, but it will blow the doors off most anything near its class. These are great boats, stiff sailing and will probably outlast us all. Good Luck

The Morgan 22 was manufactured apparently between 1968 and '74. Tim Margeson has specs for most Morgans at his site, HTTP://home.pacifier.com/~sailing/OtherMorgans/M41_OtherMorgans.htm
