38′ Morgan | 38' 1983 Morgan

“Swamp Rabbit” is an exceptional example of the renowned Morgan 384 — a Ted Brewer / Charley Morgan design known for strength, balance, and excellent cruising performance. This vessel stands out as one of the cleanest, most upgraded Morgan 384s available in the U.S. today, with new sails, new canvas, upgraded electronics, refreshed rigging, new mechanical components, and documented ongoing maintenance.

Between 2012–2025, nearly every major area of the boat has been improved or refreshed: new gelcoat, teak refinishing, Dyneema running rigging, full canvas renewal, updated AC, electronics, pumps, refrigeration board, AIS transceiver, and more. “Swamp Rabbit” is washed every 2 weeks, diver-maintained every 60 days, and receives an oil/filter service every 90 days.

This is a true cruiser ready for Galveston Bay, coastal cruising, or outfitting for bluewater.
