Milagros is a 38-foot Morgan sailing yacht.  The hull number is 007, the 7^th hull in the M-382 design. She was constructed in 1978.  Milagros is a REAL Morgan yacht constructed by Charlie Morgan, before the name was sold to Catalina in the mid-1980s.

Over 600 Morgan 38s of three different types have been produced since the late 1960s.  The first M-38, designed by Charley Morgan and built by the company he founded in 1965, was in production from 1969 through 1971. Approximately 80 of these fine keel-center boarders were built, and most are still sailing today. In the mid-1970s, the company (which had passed out of Charley Morgan's hands) asked the well-known naval architect Ted Brewer to design a racer-cruiser with a 30-foot waterline. That boat was named the M-382. It had a long fin keel with a sturdy skeg-mounted rudder. Approximately, three hundred were built between 1977 and 1981. In 1982, Morgan made some changes to the rig and rudder, calling the modified

boat the M-383. The M-384, with further enhancements, followed a year later. About 100 of each of these later models were built. In the mid-1980s, Catalina Yachts acquired Morgan and during the 1990s has produced yet another M-38, this one a center-cockpit, fin keel-spade rudder design. Approximately 60 of these vessels have been produced. Three different designs; three Morgan 38s. Three fine boats. Especially with the older boats, owners have been busy these last few years refurbishing, upgrading, and in some cases modifying them.
