Moody 28
190 / 397 - score 56%
The Moody 28 is a 27.5ft masthead sloop designed by Bill Dixon/Angus Primrose and built in fiberglass by Moody Yachts (A. H. Moody & Sons) between 1985 and 1987.
70 units have been built.
The Moody 28 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
