A Timeless British Cruiser with Proven Pedigree
Built in 1982 to Bill Dixon’s iconic design, the Moody 27 "Lingara" is a robust, sea-kindly cruiser that punches above her weight. Perfect for coastal adventures, weekend escapes, or as a low-cost liveaboard project, this classic yacht offers dependable performance and clever use of space – all at a fraction of the cost of modern equivalents.
Why "Lingara" Stands Out:
~ Solid Construction: CRP hull and deck with a deep fin keel for confident sailing.
~ Reliable Volvo Power: 18hp Volvo Penta MD7B diesel (5-6 knots cruising) with 12V electrics and twin batteries.
~ Cosy & Practical: 5-6 berths in two cabins and a galley with manual water pump.
~ Ready to Sail: Includes mainsail, genoa, spinnaker, and roller reefing (genoa in good condition).
~ Safety First: CQR anchor + 50m chain, radar reflector, lifejackets, and full navigation lights.
