The Moody 425 is a robust, centercockpit cruiser that stands as a testament to the Bill Dixon era of design, representing a peak in the brand’s reputation for bluewater capability. Launched in 1988 as an evolution of the Moody 422, the 425 extended the hull with an integral bathing platform and refined the interior layout to maximize its 42foot7inch length. Built by Marine Projects in Plymouth to rigorous standards, the vessel was designed for longdistance passagemaking, offering a blend of heavyweather security and impressive living volume. It remains a staple of the brokerage market for sailors intending to cross oceans or live aboard, largely because it avoids the "lightweight" feel of modern highvolume cruisers in favor of structural density and seakindly motion.
