The Moody 38, specifically the Bill Dixon-designed model produced between 1991 and 1996 (often designated as the 38-2 to distinguish it from earlier Angus Primrose designs), represents the pinnacle of the British center-cockpit cruising ethos. Built by Marine Projects in Plymouth, the same yard responsible for Princess Yachts, this vessel was engineered to provide a safe, dry, and luxurious platform for blue-water passage making. Unlike its predecessors which utilized more traditional lines, the 38-2 introduced a more modern, voluminous hull with a sugar-scoop transom and a significantly more refined interior, bridging the gap between the rugged cruisers of the 1980s and the sophisticated yachts of the late 1990s.
