1984 Moody 27, bilge keel, sloop rig with BETA 20 inboard diesel engine. ‘Moody Maid’ has been a faithful partner to her owner of the past 32 years. A charming boat, benefitting from new rigging in 2024 and new BETA engine in 2014. With her bilge keels and manageable size, Moody Maid is the ideal starter boat, or equally a great harbour boat for someone wanting to downsize. 2024 insurance survey available. Available to view by appointment in Chichester.
