Description
The Moody 419 from 1984 (Hull certification by Lloyds) is a well-known deep-sea cruising single-hull yacht with a central cockpit, designed by the renowned naval architect Bill Dixon and built by the UK shipyard Marine Projects (Plymouth) Ltd. between 1984 and 1986 (for a total of only 60 units produced). It represents a direct evolution of the Moody 41. “Moody 419 from 1984 – Bill Dixon Design, Head-to-Fore Fiocco Sloop, fiberglass hull. This unit renewed its teak deck in 2016 and its cockpit in 2024. A solid and seaworthy boat, ideal for long-range deep-sea cruising (bluewater). It features a protected central cockpit. Description: the interior is made with high-quality teak joinery, typical of Moody’s British production of that era. Although it may appear slightly dark by modern standards due to the abundant use of wood, it conveys a strong sense of sturdiness, warmth, and good sea-keeping. Headroom is excellent in almost all areas; spacious owner’s cabin aft with private bathroom—the true strong point of Dixon’s central-cockpit designs. The aft cabin is extremely spacious; it has a central “queen size” double bed, a side settee, and a private en-suite bathroom. The interior height and the ample ventilation through large openings or portholes make it an environment comparable to boats of larger size: double cabin forward, guest cabin with bunk beds, and a second bathroom. Large, bright saloon with two excellent guard berths usable under way, integrating ample wooden lockers for storage. Located to the left of the companionway, the galley benefits from a very deep “U” shape. This ergonomic layout allows the cook to fit securely and cook easily even when the boat is heeled. It is equipped with two round double sinks, a cooker with oven, and a generous top-loading fridge locker. Diesel engine Powering it is a Thornycroft T108, 4-cylinder, naturally aspirated diesel engine, known for being a true old-school “workhorse”: heavy, free from complex electronics, very reliable, and simple to repair. Efficient 50 hp, installed on the boat and launched in 2020. Stable, comfortable boat.
