About
2004 Moody 56 – LADY PAULINE
A comprehensively equipped and extensively upgraded Moody 56, designed by Bill Dixon and built for serious long-distance bluewater cruising.
Lady Pauline is a 2004 Moody 56 centre-cockpit cruising yacht presented in private ownership only and reportedly never chartered. Swiss flagged and currently afloat in Greece, the yacht has benefited from continuous owner maintenance together with substantial upgrading and replacement works undertaken during recent years.
The Moody 56 remains one of the most respected bluewater cruising yachts of her generation, combining strong offshore construction, secure centre-cockpit design, raised saloon visibility and a practical cutter-rig sail plan with spacious owner-oriented accommodation suited to extended cruising and liveaboard use.
This particular example has received significant recent investment including renewed standing rigging in 2023, replacement mast wiring in 2023, replacement in-mast furling gear in 2022, new mainsail in 2024, new genoa and staysail in 2025 all three sails made with cruising laminates for improved blue water cruising performance. This Moody 56 LADY PAULINE also benefits from lithium battery upgrades, replacement cockpit seat teak in 2024, all seacocks renewed in 2024, a fully overhauled Spectra Newport 700 watermaker in 2025, upgraded anchor equipment and a recent aluminium RIB tender package.
This Moody 56 is additionally equipped with generator, reverse-cycle air conditioning, bow thruster, electric winches, watermaker, lithium domestic batteries, Raymarine navigation electronics, AIS transceiver, Simpson electric davits and extensive offshore cruising equipment.
Lady Pauline has remained continuously within EU waters during current ownership and supporting documentation relating to VAT status, Builder’s Certificate and EU location during the Brexit transition period is available.
With a substantial cruising inventory, generous liveaboard accommodation and a long programme of continuous owner upgrading, Lady Pauline is presented as a capable offshore cruising yacht suitable for immediate Mediterranean or long-distance cruising use.

Designed by Bill Dixon, the model successfully combines reassuring offshore capability, practical systems design and excellent long-term liveaboard comfort with the manageable sail handling and secure cockpit arrangement sought by experienced cruising owners.
Built to Ocean Category A classification, the Moody 56 offers a serious offshore platform with strong passage-making capability. The raised saloon configuration provides excellent visibility and interior volume, while the cutter-rig arrangement, protected centre cockpit and substantial tankage make the design particularly well suited to extended Mediterranean cruising and offshore passagemaking.

Notable improvements include renewed standing rigging in 2023, replacement mast wiring in 2023, replacement in-mast furling gear in 2022, all seacocks renewed in 2024, replacement cockpit seat teak in 2024, upgraded lithium battery systems, a fully overhauled Spectra watermaker in 2025, new sail inventory between 2024 and 2025 and extensive ongoing systems maintenance.
