Overview

The Moody 45 Classic is not simply a yacht — it is a statement of freedom, elegance, and adventure. Blending timeless craftsmanship with exhilarating performance, she turns every arrival into an event and every voyage into a luxury escape.

Dignity II is a lovely example of the Moody 45 Classic which in turn combines the best of modern design and construction with the traditional New England style and Moody values.
The warm and elegant interior using rich mahogany veneers and solid mahogany trims, inspires a warm and welcoming feel.
Designed by Moody's long serving primary designer Bill Dixon, he has created a fast and comfortable cruising yacht, equally suitable for marina life, short hops along the coast or further afield for long passage making.
However you choose to use her, she will always be the boat that folk stop to admire, the plumb stem combined with the pleasing sheer line, long overhang aft and a traditional raked transom make for a stunningly classic looking yacht to be proud of.

Reasons to love her:
Timeless lines that never go out of style
Powerful blue-water performance with effortless handling
Luxurious handcrafted interior finished in rich mahogany
Spacious cockpit designed for entertaining and relaxing
Exceptional comfort for long-distance cruising
Attention-grabbing presence in every marina
Built with the confidence and pedigree of a true offshore yacht
Modern sailing technology wrapped in classic elegance
Stable and reassuring in all conditions
A yacht that delivers adventure, prestige, and freedom in equal measure

In summary this stunning example was built for sailors who refuse to compromise, 'Dignity' delivers blue-water confidence, breath taking style, and the thrill of owning a yacht that commands attention in every marina.
