Description

Bonobo is a classic heavy cruiser from the renowned Moody stable being designed by Bill Dixon. One of only 254 Moody 346's built between '86 and '90, so one of the last ones built! Shining bright white GRP hull. Deck in perfect condition, is in perfect white with an integral grained non-slip surface in grey. Still looking fresh and desirable. Maintained to a high standard, very original and has been very lightly used, this Moody 346 is the perfect family cruiser. Bonobo has great accommodation, two accommodation cabins and very respectable inventory. 1989, owned for 2 years and added only 10 hours sailing in all that time.
