Reviews According to Cruising World:
A teardrop-shaped hull, wide beam, discreet reverse transom, and long overhangs might be the hallmarks of a vintage racing boat, but Ted Brewer designed the Morgan 382 as a cruiser, not as a racer that could also be cruised. Visually, the boat is balanced and well proportioned, and the low cabin trunk and 6-inch bulwarks help keep the profile trim. At upward of 17,000 pounds on a waterline of 30 feet 6 inches, the boat is almost in the heavy-displacement category. The hull, however, with its elongated fin keel, skeg-attached rudder, and roundish bilge, isnt that of a slow cruiser. Under sail, the motion is predictable and comfortable, and the wide deck offers excellent footing with many flat surfaces. The practical and well-protected cockpit commands a clear view in all directions. The helm is responsive, but directional stability with the wind aft of the beam isnt great. Overall, the boat is stiff and fast; it points high, and it cuts through chop easily. According to Practical Sailor
She is dry and seakindly, stable and relatively fast for her generation. The 382 rates between 128 and 150, about 137 on average. The Morgan 382 might be one of the most overlooked cruising sailboats ever built. Designed by legendary naval architect Ted Brewer and produced between 1977 and 1982,this 38 foot cruising sailboat has quietly built a reputation for being strong, comfortable offshore, and surprisingly capable under sail. With a fin keel, skeg hung rudder, 17,000 lb displacement and nearly 40% ballast ratio, the Morgan 382 was designed in an era when cruising boats were built for real ocean passages.
