Moody 35 | Highly sought-after centre cockpit family cruiser

This 1991 Moody 35 is a respected British cruising yacht from Marine Projects, known for solid GRP construction, dependable handling, and a practical layout. She is an honest and well-proven example of this popular model, built for safe and capable coastal and offshore sailing.

Her fin keel with iron ballast, blade rudder, and wheel steering give her predictable manners under sail and power. Aluminium spars and wire standing rigging, replaced around four years ago, add confidence for longer passages. Sail handling is straightforward and efficient, with a slab-reefed mainsail, furling genoa, and cruising chute, all supported by multiple cockpit winches.

A Beta 35hp diesel engine with approximately 700 hours provides reliable and economical auxiliary power. Tankage suits extended cruising well, with around 90 litres of fuel, 180 litres of fresh water in two tanks, and a dedicated grey water tank. Two solar panels and a wind vane increase independence and make time away from shore power easier.

Below decks, the Moody 35 feels welcoming, practical, and comfortable. Accommodation includes two double cabins, a spacious saloon with navigation table, and around six feet of headroom throughout. The single heads compartment is well arranged for cruising, while the galley offers a Plastimo cooker with oven, a fridge with small freezer, and a double sink.

Her inventory is comprehensive and supports serious cruising. Navigation, safety, and deck equipment combine to create a capable package for owners planning coastal passages or longer adventures. A four-man tender with Honda outboard, carried on davits, adds useful versatility at anchor.

This Moody 35 is a sensible and seaworthy choice for sailors seeking a proven cruising yacht with classic British pedigree. For further details or to arrange a viewing, please contact us today.
