OVERVIEW

The Morris 48.6 was designed for rigorous but comfortable offshore sailing across all latitudes. This Chuck Paine design is fast on all points of sail with her long, lean and light hull, yet superbly seaworthy. The raised pilot house provides plenty of room for tankage, and superior visibility. The deck layout is clean and well-equipped for short handed work with mainsail control lines led aft and traveler forward of the binnacle. Below decks she is stunning, spacious, light filled and beautifully appointed. Christina is configured in the two stateroom, two head layout with a separate work area, a large nav. station and beam galley. Christina has been fastidiously upgraded and maintained under her current ownership.  New rod rigging, running rigging, new instrumentation and A/V systems all in the last 3-4 years.  Her rig was pulled and repainted in 2020, and several new amenities added, including new outboard for the tender, and Starlink communications. 

 

Currently lying in Southern California she will be moved to the Bay Area in early September.  Taking inquiries now.
