Meridian Yacht 441

Meridian 441 flybridge
length of 14.4 m - beam of 5.20 m - draft of 0.9 m - semi-planing hull. 6 berths (2 double beds + convertible sofa). It is under French flag and from 2008.
2 cabins with 2 bathrooms. The aft cabin has its own bathroom with a real shower stall.
The second cabin has direct access to the second bathroom from inside. This bathroom is also accessible from the staircase. It features a boat shower, a showerhead, and a floor drain.
The main living area includes a salon with a convertible sofa, a dining area with a table and 2 benches for 4 people, and a galley.
Under the salon, access via a ladder leads to the interior hold, where a freezer and washing machine were planned to be installed — the space is available (but it should be checked with Seb regarding equipment and connections).
The flybridge is solid, with covers replaced in 2022, and features a sink, a table, and benches for 8 people. This is the helm station. The onboard electronics are recent: 2 engine screens, a 12-inch Garmin touchscreen GPS, a latest-generation hydraulic autopilot, VHF, and radio station.
The engines are two Cummins QSB 6.7 (960 HP total, under 50 hours, still under warranty — new and installed in 12/2023), with treated propeller shafts and revised reversing gears. Max speed: 26 knots, comfortable cruising at 12-14 knots + a powerful bow thruster with joystick makes maneuvering in port easier.
The technical equipment is up-to-date: the 4 flaps actuators were replaced a year and a half ago; all through-hulls are bronze, and the underwater lights are recent. No costs expected below the waterline.
At anchor, autonomy is excellent: Victron lithium batteries (12V), complemented by 1000 W discreet solar panels, a generator, and engine alternators. This allows very limited generator use.
The windlass and chain are new (90m, 1200W,stainless steel anchor).
A hydraulic stern platform is attached to the aft deck, descending into the water, greatly facilitating boarding the tender. (and allows sunbathing in the water as well, but less appealing...)
The boat is also equipped with a 120 L/h desalination system, an 11 KVA 230V generator (overhauled), a ventilated Liebherr professional refrigerator, a microwave grill, and electric cooktops.
Electricity operates at 12V and 230V.
Fuel tank of 1800 L and freshwater tank of 500 L + a 120 L/h desalination system.
