Broker's Comments

*** Brand new unused mainsail and new stackpack! ***

This center cockpit Moody 346 is rated as one of the best designs of its era.

Very spacious saloon, aft cabin and fore cabin belie the size of the boat. The aft cabin even boasts a seating area next to the double divan and its own sink.

Access to the aft cabin is through a passage with the engine compartment to the inboard side and storage space outboard.

A couple of areas show signs of a nearly 40 year old boat but the overall condition shows careful owners.

The punchy 36hp Thorneycroft engine makes this vessel a serious passage maker as well as offering incredible accommodation on board.

There was a 2018 survey which we are told had all issues addressed.

The galley features two sinks, a very large fridge and a two burner hob and grill. Hot water is provided via a calorifier.

All in all, she seems like a lovely boat that has been looked after and could carry her new owners for many miles in legendary Moody comfort and style!
