About the MOODY 62 DS
The Moody 62 DS is a fractional sloop designed by Dixon Yacht Design and built by Moody, with production records indicating a start year of 2009. As a large displacement cruiser with a build count that remains unspecified in available data, it represents a significant investment in heavy, comfortable cruising.
- Best for:
- This vessel is best suited for experienced coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize heavy, motion-dampened comfort over high-speed performance, particularly those seeking a spacious double-salon layout for extended passages.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 66138.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 1.71, the Moody 62 DS exhibits strong offshore stability and seaworthiness, supported by its fin keel and robust construction typical of Dixon Yacht Design's heavy-displacement philosophy.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Hallberg-Rassy 56 and the Swan 601, as they share similar heavy displacement characteristics and fractional sloop rigs aimed at serious bluewater cruising rather than racing.
