Designed by Bill Dixon, the Moody 346 remains a very popular family cruiser, thanks to solid build quality and an excellent aft cabin layout. This 1987 example has had quite extensive renewals and upgrading in her present ownership. The bilge keels also open up many more cruising and mooring options.

The Moody 346 was introduced in June 1986 as an update to the Moody 34, itself a modernised replacement for the old Angus Primrose designed Moody 33/333 range. These Dixon-designed models were considerably sleeker looking than the earlier Primrose designs, yet retained all the virtues of interior space and good sailing performance. The interior fit-out of the 34 and 346 was also to a significantly better standard than the earlier 33s, which used a lot of plastic laminates instead of wood.

The Moody 34 and 346 are virtually identical, except that the 346 has a transom bathing/boarding platform. The Moody 346 continued in production until mid-1990, proving one of the most successful designs for the company

Photographs ashore February 2012

The keels were removed and rebedded in her present ownership,
and at the time these photographs were taken were being
cleaned back prior to priming the keels and re-antifouling the hull.
