Advance notice that my Moody 346 Bilge Keel sailing yacht Clarus (1988) is coming up for sale this winter due to my reluctant retirement as a boat owner.
I bought Clarus in Sept 2016 as only the 3rd owner - she has been lightly sailed, mainly south coast cruising, fully upgraded and very well maintained over the past 9 years and is in sail away condition.
Current location is a well positioned finger berth in Queen Anne’s Battery marina, Plymouth with a transferable and renewable contract through to 31 March 2026. NB There is currently a waiting list for berths in QAB.
Key upgrade summary as follows :
