The Moody Decksaloon 54’s one-level living concept takes a unique approach to modern yacht design at over 50 feet. Simply open the sliding doors, and you can enjoy a panoramic view from the living area and the spacious cockpit on the same level. The combination of the large cockpit, which comes with a standard table, and the open aft deck is ideal for spending time with family and friends, quickly becoming the place to congregate on board.
The twin helm stations are where all the threads come together. From the engine to the sails, every component can be controlled by a single person at the helm. In wet or windy conditions, you can operate the yacht from inside, easily managed by the autopilot and throttle at the chart table. An extra-high bulwark, grab handles on the saloon roof, and a fixed railing provide secure passage along the side deck, even when the weather gets rough. This feature is often appreciated by younger crew members and dogs alike!
The interior options are plentiful. For those who prefer a cooking area separate from the saloon, you can choose the cabin concept with a large galley located below. This version offers more workspace and storage, allowing for ample daylight so it doesn’t feel like you’re down in the hull. No matter which galley configuration you choose, you will be provided with every convenience. Interior wood choices can be tailored to suit your style, such as cherry or light oak, with lovely detailing features throughout. The amount of space and headroom in the interior is truly impressive.
This yacht features state-of-the-art systems with a C-Zone touchpad to control all electrical items—bow thruster, stern thruster (if you choose), electric in-mast furling, and even the option of powered furling for the headsails. All of these systems are controlled with a single touch at the helm, meaning that even at 54 feet, she can be easily handled shorthanded.
Based on the same hull as the Hanse 588, designed by the renowned Bill Dixon, these yachts sail exceptionally well. Several have successfully participated in the Sydney Hobart race and have made transatlantic crossings with the ARC rally.
With four separate cabins and three heads with showers, there is room for eight crew members to enjoy comfort. The Moody DS54 combines the attributes of a monohull, a powerboat, and a catamaran. It truly works!
