1994 28′ SAM L. MORSE BRISTOL CHANNEL CUTTER “LITTLE WING” $159,000

• • • • 1 cabin, 1 head, sleeps 4–5 persons
        Little Wing offers the most functional and thoughtfully executed layout you’ll find in a 28-foot boat—built by Sam L. Morse with every available factory option and refined by a skilled woodworker owner. The spacious galley and navigation station are immediately accessible at the companionway, leading into a well-designed salon with generous storage. Berthing options include a convertible queen-sized centerline berth, pilot berth that extends to a double, a starboard settee with lee cloth, and a large quarter berth—allowing comfortable sleeping for up to five.
        Forward, the enclosed head and “multi-purpose room” serves as a dressing space, workshop, and access to the forepeak, which houses the sail and chain lockers along with a Spectra watermaker. The interior is finished in hand-oiled teak, tongue-and-groove bulkheads, and bronze ports, with Alpenglow dual-color lighting, oil lamps, and excellent ventilation via oversized hatches and dorades. With diesel cabin heat, a large fridge/freezer, ample counter space, and smart storage throughout, Little Wing is warm, beautiful, and practical—perfect for long-term cruising or living aboard.
