The Moody 38 Eclipse, produced between 1990 and 1994, stands as a benchmark in the evolution of the deck saloon cruiser. Designed by Bill Dixon and built by Marine Projects in Plymouth, this model was the mid-sized offering in the ambitious "Eclipse" range, which aimed to combine the interior visibility and protection of a motor sailer with the hull lines and sailing prowess of a modern offshore yacht. Unlike the traditional center-cockpit Moody 376 or the later aft-cockpit Moody 38, the Eclipse 38 features a distinctive raised coachroof that allows for an internal steering station and 360-degree views from the saloon. This design philosophy was heavily influenced by the success of the smaller Moody Eclipse 33 and the flagship Eclipse 43, creating a cohesive family of vessels that prioritized "all-weather" cruising for the Northern European and blue-water markets.
