The Moody 336 is a popular sailing boat that was built by Marine Projects Plymouth to the highest Lloyds Specification. First introduced in 1986 and production of around 200 continued until 1997. The Moody 336 is a mid-sized cruising yacht known for its solid construction, comfortable accommodations, and good sailing performance. Helga is well presented and has just been anti-fouled. She is the Bilge Keel version so she can be sailed in shoal water too. The bilges are deep enough to still provide great stability. The interior appears to be very dry, bright and airy. She is extremely well laid out and boasts a beautiful fit out too. There is lots of seating, a saloon table that opens out spanning to both port and starboard seating. She can sleep 4 in two cabins and has the additional 3 berths when utilising the saloon seating. Note the port side settee converts easily to a double.
This is an ideal sailing boat for families and couples to enjoy passage making and socialising. She has a superb pedigree and the much coveted Lloyds plate that proves she is a cut above most others in her class. The lines are led aft for ease of sailing and there is also a special winch that has been added to aid changing tack etc.
Helga will appeal to those who appreciate quality and the benefits of a sturdy, sea-kindly sailing yacht. She has her original Builders Certificate along with other paperwork too.
