The M29 is a smaller and financially more approachable version of Morris Yachts’ successful M36 and M42 weekenders. Perhaps best described as a gentleman’s daysailer, the M29 maintains the classic lines of its Sparkman & Stephens-designed, Morris-built cousins and is unencumbered by the clutter of deck hardware. Add translucent varnish over teak trim and you have a certified head turner. The spacious cockpit accommodates a large group. All sailing functions cleverly emerge from belowdeck leads to the tiller helm station. With light displacement, a 4:1 length-to-beam ratio, foil keel, carbon-fiber mast, and spade rudder, the M29 offers stellar yet uncomplicated sailing performance. Powered by a 14-horse Yanmar with saildrive, it motors as handily as it sails. The interior, though small and simple, offers a head, full-length berths, and ample stowage. Designed to fit into a standard shipping container, this elegant daysailer will know no borders.
