Design
The Morgan 32 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig with aluminum spars, a raked stem, a reverse transom, a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 11000 lb and carries 4000 lb of lead ballast.

The boat has a draft of 5.33 ft with the standard keel and 4.00 ft with the optional shoal draft keel.

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 2GM20 20 hp diesel engine. The fuel tank holds 27 u.s.gal and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 35 u.s.gal.

The galley is located on the port side, at the bottom of the companionway stairs and features a two-burner alcohol stove and oven, a 7 cuft icebox and a single sink with foot-pumped water. The head is located forward, just aft of the bow "V"-berth. Additional sleeping accommodation is provided by settees in the main cabin and a aft double berth. One cabin quarter berth also serves as a seat for the navigation table. The cabin trim is teak with ash striping on the ceiling.

Ventilation is provided by six opening ports, plus opening hatches in the head and bow cabin.

The mainsheet is of a 6:1, mid-boom configuration and attaches at the bridge deck. The cockpit has two genoa winches and the genoa has inboard tracks. There are also two halyard winches.

Original factory optional equipment included jiffy reefing, a bow anchor roller and pressure water.

The design has a Portsmouth Yardstick racing average handicap of 86.0.
