Remarks :
The Moody 376 is a proven bluewater cruiser, with a reputation for quality construction, seaworthiness, and comfortable living aboard, making it a favorite among sailors who enjoy long passages or coastal cruising with the added benefit of a roomy interior..
"Ellen Jane" is a 1989 version which is to a good specification including, Scheel Keel, furling mainsail, furling Genoa, Raymarine wind/speed and transducer, Furuno GP32 GPS, Standard Horizon Plotter, Standard Horizon VHF, Furuno Radar, and Autohelm.
She has just been lifted, anti fouled and had new anodes in February 2025 meaning she is ready for another season.
Owners Comments
The centre cockpit design of the Moody 376 has allowed efficient use of the hull volume to provide a spacious cruising interior for the family. Notable features include the big owners cabin aft with separate heads and large U-shaped galley with extensive work surfaces. I am the 4th owner of Ellen Jane purchasing her in 2018. The second owner in 1995 and 3rd in 2012.

Accommodation :
Accommodation:
One of the standout features of the Moody 376 is its spacious and well-designed interior, especially for a boat of its size.
The saloon is large, with a U-shaped seating area around a central table, which can convert into additional sleeping space.
This version features two cabins: a V-berth in the bow and a large (with infill), aft owner's cabin with a double bed.
The galley is situated on the port side and is equipped with a 2 burner gas stove, oven, grill, refrigerator, microwave and ample storage, making it ideal for cruising.
There are two heads each with a shower and toilet.
Ample storage is provided throughout the boat, making it well-suited for long-distance cruising or liveaboard life.
