Hi
Our prvately owned 1989 build Moody 425 is based in Port Addaya, Menorca and is EU VAT paid. She is comprehensively advertised on ApolloDuck ref # 817705, reduced to £50,00 ono.
We are selling our floating home because, after 19years of ownership, in our 80th year, we recognise that we are not upto the demands of owning and sailing her.
