Want To Buy: Moody 425 in North America or Caribbean

[LoicBCN]

Hi folks,
we are a family of 4 with 2 kids 10 and 13 years old, and are planning a 2 years sailing journey.
After screening hundreds of models, we have finally decided to go for the Moody 425: very robust sailing boat, excellent use of space with 2 double berths, and bunk berths.

We are currently based in Mexico and the idea is to start around the region. So if you hear about a Moody 425 about to be listed in the US, Central America or Caribbean, we would greatly appreciate if you could share the info.

Thanks thousands

Hello LoicBCN,

We have a 1990 Moody 425. We have been living and sailing on it for two years. We haven’t really thought about selling our boat until recently but we’re currently in St. Lucia.

Things that should be looked into:

Neither of these have issues but appear to be original
