We are an Australian family of 5, including three boys, who bought our 1984 centre cockpit Moody 47 sight unseen in Grenada back in Nov 2017. Luckily she was exactly as described, and she hasn't given us any trouble since. She has two spacious cabins. One complete with three single beds, and the other is a queen-size aft cabin. The boat also has two heads, a spacious saloon that seats about 10 adults and a galley. Since owning her we have sailed throughout the Caribbean, across the Atlantic Ocean and throughout the Med. She is a solid bluewater cruiser, spacious for her age and has been a safe and reliable family home for the past 4 years. We are selling to upgrade to a catamaran as we are soon to have two teenagers on board who need their own space.

The boat has been maintained by an ex-aircraft technician and many upgrades and checks have been done since owning the boat, including a re-rig in 2019, new chainplates, a recent keel bolt inspection and replacement of keel bolt backing plates and nuts, the addition of 1000w of solar, two wind generators etc. She underwent an insurance survey only a few months ago (she got a perfect bill of health, happy to provide a copy), has a new bottom job, a brand new headsail along with a 2019 main sail. She also has low engine hours (3250), a large amount of solar and wind power, a watermaker, generator (needs a marine electrician to look at it) and a reliable dinghy and 15hp engine. This boat is ready to sail back across the Atlantic tomorrow if need be, and that was our plan until just recently when we decided to buy a catamaran instead.
