Reliability and maintenance
This Moody 30 has been owned by only three owners. The ship has been ashore almost every year and has always been professionally maintained. In 2015, the hull underwent an epoxy treatment with 7 layers of Gelshield – osmosis-free! The underwater hull received new antifouling, anodes, and engine service in June 2025.

Comfortable and ready to sail
With 3 fixed berths, this sailing yacht is perfect for longer trips with family or friends. The saloon has a headroom of 190 cm, a classic wooden interior and complete equipment including a 2-burner gas stove, Jabsco water pump with carbon filter (2021), and warm air heating (Webasto Airtop 2000).

Modern equipped cockpit
The cockpit is protected with a sprayhood (2017) and a cockpit cover. The steering is placed outside with a steering wheel, and thanks to the self-tailing winches (Lewmar) and well-maintained rigging, the ship sails easily solo or with a small crew.
