Description

One of the most popular of the smaller Moodys, the 31 has excellent accommodation including a good-sized aft double cabin. In the present much loved ownership for 14 years, she is for sale now only because of a bereavement. The inventory includes a barely used full cockpit canopy and davits, a recently fitted electric windlass, and internally she has newish upholstery and hot water.

Construction

Designed by Bill Dixon, the Mk I Moody 31 was built from late 1983 to the end of 1985, at which time it was superseded by the Mk II, which was very similar, the main differences being the addition of a sugar scoop stern, and a change to a forward-facing chart table. This yacht is a 1985 built Mk I, first launched in 1986.

Production continued until 1991, by which time over 300 had been built in total. As standard the boats were tiller-steered, but a few had wheel steering fitted as an option. This yacht is tiller steered, which actually gives much more usable cockpit space than a wheel.

Unlike the earlier generation Moodys, which used a lot of exposed GRP and laminate, the Moody 31s have a fairly traditional and 'woody' interior.
