Designed by Bill Dixon and built by Marine Projects (Plymouth) under the Moody brand the Moody 336 was a highly successful design with around 200 built. A comfortable and reliable cruising boat combined with excellent sailing characteristics; the Moody 336 model is noted for being a very capable performer in around the cans racing with many class wins at regattas to this models credit.  

 

The design offers comfortable accommodation for up to 6 and boasts a large master cabin aft and huge dedicated heads compartment with a separate shower area. 

 

This Moody 336 Mk II, 'Sky Song of Dart' is a lightly used example of the class with only 3 owners from new (delivered in 1994), and offered with a cruising inventory which includes: 

'Sky Song of Dart' is a notably un-tainted, clean example of what is a really successful design, with significant money having been spent recently in modern upgrades and good fundamental maintenance work steadily carried out by the current owners throughout their 5 year ownership.

The Moody 336 offers six berths across two separate sleeping cabins plus the saloon berths.  

‘Sky Song of Dart’s accommodation is fitted with re-upholstered, mid-blue cushions throughout to replace the original velour fabric in white with red pin stripe. She was fitted with the optional teak and holly finished sole boards in the main saloon and these have recently been stripped and re-finished.  

Being of the face-lifted, Mk II version, the galley locker doors are of teak wood finish and the saloon is simply and tastefully provided with stainless steel fiddled book shelves.  

The M336 featured a far more generous heads compartment than her contemporaries and a remarkably accommodating galley, while the indulgent and ‘ground-breaking’ aft cabin shone a light on the future as to how aft cabins would evolve. 

 

Forecabin: 2 berths, laid out in a generally ‘V’- form, but with a notably curved shape to the ‘V’ to offer more floor space. The berths are set well forward in the cabin space, with lockers abaft the head of the berths; deep hanging to starboard and two individual shelved lockers to port. Two deeply fiddled cave lockers are fitted above each berth and are suspended beneath the side decks running either side of the cabin. Access to the chain locker, through a hinged trap at the foot end of the berths. Usefully, all the space beneath the berths is accessible for bulk stowage as a result of the water tanks being located beneath the settee berths, in the main saloon. Aft-facing deck hatch over (with ventilator) for light and ventilation. Single gang 240V AC, 13A socket. 1 kg dry powder fire extinguisher mounted behind the door. 

 

Saloon: Laid out with U-shaped seating to port about a centre-line table and a single settee berth to starboard. Although the freshwater tanks are located beneath the seating, there is still some bulk stowage afforded by the returns to the port side’s seating. Moody’s usual cave lockers behind the seating’s backrests. Light and ventilation is provided by two fixed windows to the coach roof, combining with a hatch located above the saloon’s table. LED bulbs replace the filament bulbs in the overhead lighting. Flooring of teak and holly veneered plywood panels that have been stripped and re-finished nicely this last winter. 1 kg dry powder fire extinguisher at the chart table. A CD/radio player is fitted, with overhead stereo speakers mounted in the overhead panels. 

 

Chart Table: This is fitted to starboard side, facing aft and sat-to by sitting on the aft end of the starboard settee berth, with the main 12V DC distribution board mounted alongside the Navigator’s left shoulder. There are storage drawers within the chart table’s pedestal and additional, fiddled small-item stowage has been provided out-board of the table itself. 

 

Galley: basically, of L-shaped layout but featuring a curved return to the ‘L’s inboard return which notably accommodates a top-access and lift-out rubbish bin and access from the centreline of the boat to a large, shelved locker and cutlery drawer in addition to the usual shelved locker beneath the sinks. Above, and outboard, four locker doors enclose dedicated crockery storage and storage for cooking staples, while below these lockers, two sliding doors close more storage at work surface level. A top-accessed fridge is relatively large for a design of the late eighties and features an internal shelf and ice-making provision. The ‘Atlantic’ cooker by Plastimo will be the original and has two hob burners, grill and oven. The gas installation has been regularly inspected and certified over the last five year period, in the current ownership. A removable panel supplements the rest of the galley work surface when not using the cooker. 

 

Heads Compartment: Spacious and conveniently located to starboard of the foot of the companionway steps, the M336’s head’s compartment has always been a major feature of the design. Generous of space, the sub-moulding features a dedicated, separated shower area provided with a mixer tap and teak grated shower sump that is drained overboard by 12V pump, while the handbasin is incorporated within the cleverly ‘cranked’ top over a conventional locker space, matched by an under-deck locker above the washbasin. The result is of more stowage space than would otherwise have been achieved and a nicely styled moulding. A marine-flushing toilet by Jabsco is manual and flushes directly overboard. Unusually good light and ventilation levels are achieved by the provision of two opening portlights to the coach roof side, combining with and a hatch above the showering area. 

 

Aft Cabin: Once again, the M336 was class leading in the aft cabin that the design offered. A generous double berth runs for’ and aft to starboard side of and beneath the cockpit’s well, behind the engine space, accessed from a footwell to the port side of the vessel. The amount of space enabled some seating to be provided, while the relatively long footwell is located beneath the aft end of the coachroof and thereby enjoys good headroom above much of its length. A deep hanging locker is fitted behind the access door. A fixed mirror is fitted to the aftmost side of the hanging locker. An opening portlight to the starboard side of the cockpit’s well combines with a fixed port to the transom and another, overhead hatch above the footwell to provide light and ventilation.
