Broker Remarks
1991 Moody 31 MK II Bilge Keel £27,250
The Moody 31 MKII is fast becoming a classic family cruising yacht thanks to their comfortable accommodation, good all round performance and sugar scoop stern. "Koala" is a very good example of her kind with the advantage of bilge keels with tiller steering, electric windlass, diesel heating, autopilot, 2010 Crusader sails and more. If you are considering a Moody 31 MKII she should be viewed as she is likely to be one of the best available.
