Moody 333 |
Brief Notes |
Builder |
Marine Projects Ltd. |
The Moody 333
was the first Moody in this size range to feature an "aft
double cabin" layout. Based on the well-tried and solidly
built Moody 33 hull, the 333 offers an excellent family cruiser.

Designed by Angus Primrose, the Moody 333 was the final
version of the long-running Moody range based on the same
33 ft hull moulding. The Moody 333, built from around 1981
to 1983, differs from the earlier Mk I and Mk II 33s primarily
in having an aft cabin accessible from the saloon, with a
proper double berth in place of the two singles on the 33s.
The 333 also features much better quality interior finishing
than the previous 33 models, with real wood veneers in place
of the very practical but less attractive timber-effect laminates
used in most 33s. This, plus the convenience of the walkthrough
to the aft cabin, means that Moody 333s generally sell for
considerably more than similarly aged and sized 33s |
