The 1987 Morris Linda is a 28-foot fiberglass sailing yacht with a 9-foot beam, powered by an 18-horsepower Beta diesel engine. The boat has benefited from sustained attention across multiple ownership periods, most notably through extensive work completed since 2021. Recent upgrades include a new Beta marine diesel, Leisurefurl boom system, new mainsail, hull Awlgrip finish, electric anchor windlass, dodger, electric main halyard winch, mainsheet traveler relocation, fuel tank, holding tank, galley sink, Wilcox Crittenden marine toilet, and reconditioned seacocks throughout. The bridgedeck was modified to include a step for improved cabin access.
The boat has been configured with an emphasis on single or short-handed sailing, reflecting thoughtful preparation for independent cruising and handling. The accumulated investment in systems, sails, and structural work demonstrates a commitment to both performance and reliability underway.
