For Sale (added photos and equipment list) For Sale - 1988 Moody 31MK II Bilge Keel (Southampton/Hythe)

[Martin Lampard]

Due to the growing realization that my wife isn't as keen on sailing as I am, it is looking like I will be selling Drifter this summer.

She (boat, not wife) had a structural survey in October and passed with flying colours.

Since I'm likely to not have a boat to move to, I will be including a full suite of spares and extras.

I haven't tidied her up for sale yet, but if anyone is serious about acquiring a fabulous cruising (and occasional racing) boat please text me on 07710 463261 and I can arrange for you to take a look. She is lying at Hythe Marina near Southampton.

Thanks,

Martin.

I've had a few enquiries, so can confirm that I will be offering Drifter for sale at £33,500.

She was launched in August 1988, has bilge keels and wheel steering.

Since my plan is to be without a boat for a few years I will be selling her with a full (arguably excessive) complement of spares, additional rope, hardware and other fabulously useful accessories. I am assembling a proper equipment list and photo album. Please text me on the number above or PM me via the website for more details.
