Windcraft Australia
Windcraft is a great Australian success story that owes it impressive history to date to its dedication, unrivalled customer service, and unwavering loyalty to its world-class fleet of sailing and motor craft.
Bill Dixon is more than a naval architect. Each one of his designs is filled with life. Moody's design concept is no exception. His yachts not only offer the highest comfort, they also prove their quality workmanship at sea.
Moody yachts are renowned for sophisticated technology, an outstanding design concept, high-quality workmanship, functionality, and last but not least, impressive performance under sail.
Years of success give credibility to Bill Dixon and his partners. Until 2007, he worked with Premier Yacht Sales to give life to his designs. HanseYachts AG has now taken over this role.
Bill Dixon has been designing Moodys since 1981. Owners trust his work implicitly. This will not change in the future: Both traditionalists and individualists will still appreciate his designs.
The market is changing, needs vary, and there are good reasons why tomorrow's innovations will continue to strengthen the historic Moody brand.

The Moody 41 Classic is the first yacht in the new Moody Classic series. In the Deck Salon series, the Moody 45 DS has already created much sensation.
The Moody heeled, groaned and accelerated. Things happened quickly then as 20 tonnes of plush and powerful cruising yacht headed for disaster.
It is a very classy centre-cockpit cruising yacht that is modern but observes the traditional values which are essential for true seaworthiness.
Bill has given the Moody the Hanse/superyacht look favoured by the Italian Wally superyachts: slab sides, high freeboard, bulwarks, teak where possible and slabs of glass.
Her proud new owners intend to cruise the Pacific after a series of shake down cruises around New Zealand’s stunning Bay of Islands.
Dreams to own such yachts, as a successful combination of classic elements and the latest technology, could previously only be fulfilled in an one off. This had its price. The new Moody 41 Classic makes such dreams affordable.
Traditional oval windows, hinged and made of chrome, as well as high gloss mahogany above and below deck come together to embody the timeless elegance of vintage yachts.
"Windcraft had organised a tag along sail for our Hanse Yacht owners to Port Stephens and I figured this was a perfect opportunity to take the Moody offshore", said Mr Vinks
All pre-ordered Moodys were sold by the end of the show - including one order that was made as late as 8pm on Tuesday after the show finished.
