Deck Layout that Maximises Safety and Control

Cool Change, our Moody 45DS, has a deck layout that maximizes safety and control.
 
For short-handed or single-handed sailing, all sail control lines are led aft to the cockpit. The electric winches are self-tailing for one-handed use and of the right size to be used easily if you have to, or choose to use them manually.

Even mainsail reefing, an awkward chore on many boats, is quick and easy on the Moody 45DS thanks to the single-line auto-reefing system all done from the cockpit. 

Additionally, the completely surrounding pulpit from bow to stern helps to make moving around more secure.
 
On Cool Change you are completely wrapped in safety due to the solid bow rails extending all the way back to the stern with handhelds on the coach roof to move safely and with ease to the foredeck and back (see picture)
