Equity of Hamble was the first yacht to be built from the Moody 44 mould tools. Launched in 1972 production lasted for just three years but in this time fourteen were built, both sloops and ketches.

All hulls were moulded by Halmatic and with the exception of hull no. 6 Kea which was finished by McGruer, all were finished by Moody at the Swanwick yard.

This contemporary style yacht has probably the best use of interior volume of all of Giles’ cruiser racer 43-48’ (13.2 m – 14.5 m) designs and as one would expect while head-rooms are very generous they do not impact on the design’s external aesthetics.  Freeboard is not high and, and the straight sheer-line is unusual for Giles who is better known for conventional bold dipping or reverse sheer-line.
