The Morgan 462, designed by Henry Scheel, is a proven bluewater cruiser valued for her solid construction, generous storage, and comfortable accommodations. This 1981 model features the sought-after two-cabin, two-head layout with a spacious aft stateroom including an athwartship berth and ensuite head with bathtub and shower. A walk-through passage connects the aft cabin to the salon, with a workshop and excellent engine room access along the way.
Longevity, a 1981 Morgan 462, has been exceptionally well maintained throughout her life and can be easily commissioned back into service as an active cruiser. The Morgan 462 is renowned as one of the strongest fiberglass sailing monohulls ever built. If you were to take a core sample from her hull, you’d find nearly two inches of solid fiberglass—no cheap core material, just pure strength. These boats were built to handle anything the ocean can deliver. Run aground, and you’ll likely worry more about the reef than the hull.
Her keel-stepped mast adds even more security and confidence at sea, making her a true bluewater voyager. Powering the vessel is a Perkins 4-154 diesel, a legendary engine celebrated for its reliability and endurance. Many of these engines are still running strong after more than four decades, and Longevity’s is no exception.
Currently located at Nanny Cay Boatyard, Longevity is in the care of a full-time yacht caretaker. A dehumidifier runs continuously aboard, keeping her interior fresh and dry.
The center cockpit provides an excellent sense of safety and protection offshore, while the two companionways—one to the aft cabin and one to the main salon—offer a comfortable and private layout, ideal for sailing with family or friends.
Built for serious passage making, Longevity is the kind of vessel that can take you across oceans, through rough open waters, and anywhere in the world. She’s a proven, solidly constructed bluewater cruiser—perfect for those dreaming of circumnavigation or simply a safe, dependable home on the sea.
This is truly a go-anywhere boat, ready for her next adventure.

Owner’s Comments and Boat History
I have taken great care to maintain the vessel properly, addressing ongoing maintenance needs proactively. The portlight “eyebrows” are a particularly appreciated feature, allowing the ports to remain open even in light rain. According to the previous owner, the vessel was originally owned briefly by a woman in Seattle before being sold to a California sailor who lived aboard for several years. During his ownership, he cruised extensively—from California down to Baja, onward to Panama, and through the Caribbean island chain—eventually bringing the yacht up the U.S. East Coast and ultimately to the British Virgin Islands. Prior to being renamed Longevity, the vessel was known as Leprechaun.
In 2000, friends of mine purchased the yacht in partnership with three other couples, gradually acquiring the remaining shares over time. My late husband and I began visiting them aboard Longevity in 2011. In 2023, I entered into a partnership with the then–co-owner. I am now the sole owner.
Longevity is exceptionally comfortable under sail, with a notably sea-kindly motion. Her expansive cockpit enhances both cruising enjoyment and onboard living. Numerous portlights and hatches provide excellent ventilation, keeping the interior cool in warm climates. The tub offers a generously sized showering area as well as a practical utility basin for rinsing wetsuits and other gear.
The Company offers the details of this vessel in good faith but cannot guarantee or warrant the accuracy of this information nor warrant the condition of the vessel. A buyer should instruct his agents, or his surveyors, to investigate such details as the buyer desires validated. This vessel is offered subject to prior sale, price change, or withdrawal without notice.
