Used Morris M36 Sailboats for Sale

The Morris M36 stands as the quintessential modern classic daysailer, a vessel that single-handedly revitalized the market for elegant, performance-oriented boats designed for short-handed use. Conceived by the late Tom Morris and designed by the legendary firm of Sparkman & Stephens, the M36 was introduced in 2004 as the inaugural model of the "M-Series." It successfully blends the aesthetic grace of a 1930s-era yacht—characterized by long overhangs, a low-profile cabin house, and a traditional sheer line—with a high-performance underbody and a modern carbon-fiber rig. Unlike many traditional wooden yachts of its style, the M36 utilizes a vacuum-infused composite hull and a fin keel with a lead bulb, ensuring it is as fast as it is beautiful. The model’s enduring popularity led to the expansion of the line to include siblings like the smaller Morris M29 and the larger, more cruising-oriented M42 and M52, all sharing the same design language of effortless elegance.
