2005 Morris M36 Boat in Chicago, IL 60602 US

GONE WITH THE WIND is a beautiful example of the Sparkman & Stevens designed Morris M36 Daysailer. One of the last designs that Olin Stephens worked on, the M36 is the epitome of elegant simplicity with a graceful combination of classic lines and modern design and boat building. All control lines are led under deck to two electric winches at the helm, allowing the boat to be easily sailed by one person without ever leaving the wheel while the large open cockpit with over six foot seats provide plenty of room for family and friends. GONE WITH THE WIND was customized by her owner during the build process to include upgraded electronics, teak decks, the desirable V-berth layout below, electric winches and much more.
