"Penola" is a wonderful example of the popular Moody 31 MK11 cruising yacht. Twin keels make her extremely versatile, and still offer good performance. Coupled with very comfortable accommodation, sleeping six, and a host of upgrades from the current owners make her an excellent choice for family and couples cruising adventures. She has been lovingly owned by her current owner for 16 years, with many sailing adventures around West Wales, Bristol Channel, Corwall and the Irish Sea. They are relucantly selling her, and hoping for new owners who will continue to love and cruise her in the same way. She is afloat, and available for viewings in Milford Marina.
