Broker's Comments

This is a fabulously sturdy and imposing looking Moody 40!

Her high freeboard contributes to exceptional head room below and she has acres of upper deck space.

Down below, there is room for the whole family, with a choice of a large forward cabin, a roomy pullman cabin and her feature aft cabin - a cabin, with really brilliant head room.

She comes packed with stowage space and gear - some contemporary and some older, but she really does seem to be equipped and rigged to be an absolute intercontinental mile muncher - in style and comfort!

Don't forget her nearly new engine too - this should contribute to a feeling of safety and confidence, backed up by legendary Moody build quality.

If you're looking for a yacht with great history to cover large distances, or perhaps more coastal, then I heartily recommend a look at her.
