DS48: First look with Yachting World
"Moody 48DS first look:
Monohull with multihull living"
Yachting World's Toby Hodges explored the DS48 at the Düsseldorf Boat Show, and he shares his first impressions of the latest addition to the Moody fleet:
"The latest Bill Dixon-designed decksaloon model from the Hanse group continues a now-established tradition of a monohull yacht that offers single level living in much the same manner as a catamaran.
Cockpit, galley and saloon are all on the same level, with the latter enjoying far better 360º visibility than most so-called decksaloon designs, thanks to the big all-round windows. Yet the boat also retains the handling characteristics of a monohull and the big advantage of it being easier to find a visitors’ berth in many parts of the world than for a multihull."
