1978 Moody 30 - Excellent, safe, solidly built, sea kindly cruiser - perfect for a couple or young family.
Purchased in March 2022.
We are the 3rd owners.
Extensively refurbished and significantly upgraded during our ownership in order to complete a UK circumnavigation in 2023 and sail safely with babies and young children in a range of conditions.
Selling as we plan to upgrade to a larger Moody (46/47) at some point in the next 2 years and then live aboard.
Will consider offers in the region of £22,500.
Limited internal photos as we are still sailing her this season, but happy to discuss handover of ownership from August 2026 onwards.
