Used Moody Grenadier 134 Sailboats for Sale

The Moody Grenadier 134, often referred to as the Grenadier 44, represents a pinnacle of the "custom-build" era at the A.H. Moody & Sons yard before the brand transitioned fully into high-volume production. Designed by the esteemed naval architecture firm Laurent Giles, the 13.4-meter (44-foot) yacht was conceived in the mid-1970s as a powerful, go-anywhere blue water cruiser. Unlike the later Bill Dixon designs that prioritized internal volume and Mediterranean-style cockpits, the Grenadier 134 was built with a philosophy of "sea-kindliness" and heavy-weather capability. Constructed with a heavy-duty GRP hull and often finished with substantial teak joinery, it was aimed at the discerning yachtsman who required a vessel capable of extended autonomous passage-making. The "134" nomenclature specifically denotes its metric length, a common naming convention for the yard during that period to distinguish its more prestigious, larger vessels.
