Meridian Yacht 441

Meridian 441 flybridge
length 14.4 m – width 5.20 m – draft 90 cm – semi-planing hull. 6 berths (2 double beds + convertible sofa). It is French-flagged and dates from 2008.
2 cabins with 2 bathrooms. The aft cabin has its own en-suite bathroom with a real shower cabin.
The 2nd bedroom has direct internal access to the 2nd bathroom. This bathroom is also accessible from the stairs. This bathroom has a marine shower, a hand shower, and a floor drain.
The main cabin features a lounge with a convertible sofa, a dining area with a table and 2 benches seating 4 people, and a galley.
Under the lounge, there is access via a ladder to the interior hold; we planned to install a freezer and a washing machine there – space is provided (connections and fittings need confirmation with Seb).
The flybridge is hardtop, with covers replaced in 2022; it includes a sink, a table, and seating for 8 people. It is the helm station. The onboard electronics are recent: 2 engine displays, 12" Garmin touchscreen GPS, latest generation hydraulic autopilot, VHF and radio.
The engines are two Cummins QSB 6.7 (960 HP total, less than 50 hours, still under warranty – new and installed in 12/2023), with treated shaft lines and overhauled gearboxes. Max speed: 26 knots, comfortable cruising at 12-14 knots + powerful bow thruster with joystick facilitates harbor maneuvers.
Technical equipment is up to date: the 4 flap actuators were replaced a year and a half ago, all hull fittings are bronze, and underwater lights are recent. No expenses expected below the waterline.
At anchor, autonomy is excellent: Victron lithium batteries (12V), supplemented by 1000 W discreet solar panels, generator, and engine alternators. This allows minimal generator use.
The windlass and chain are new (90m, 1200W, stainless steel anchor).
Attached to the aft swim platform, there is a hydraulic platform that lowers into the water, greatly facilitating boarding of the tender. (and also allows sunbathing lying in the water but that's less of a selling point…)
The boat is also equipped with a 120 L/h watermaker, an 11 kVA 230V generator (serviced), a Liebherr professional ventilated refrigerator, a microwave grill oven, and electric cooktops.
Electricity is 12V and 230V.
1800 L diesel tank and 500 L freshwater tank + 120 L/h watermaker.
