Meridian 441 flybridge
Length of 14.4 m - width of 5.20 m - draft of 90 cm - semi-planing hull. It sleeps 6 (2 double beds + convertible sofa) It is under French flag and dating from 2008.
2 cabins with 2 bathrooms. The aft cabin has its own bathroom with a real shower cabin.
The 2nd bedroom has access to the 2nd bathroom directly from the inside. This bathroom is also accessible from the staircase. This bathroom has a boat shower, a shower head, and a floor water evacuation.
The main accommodation has a living room with a convertible sofa, a dining area with a table and 2 benches for 4 people, and a kitchen corner.
Under the living room, access via a ladder leads to the interior hold, where we planned to install a freezer and a washing machine - so space is planned (but you need to check with Seb about installations and connections)
The flybridge is solid, with tarps replaced in 2022, it has a sink, table, and benches for 8 people. It's the cockpit. The onboard electronics is recent: 2 engine screens, Garmin 12-inch touch GPS, latest generation hydraulic autopilot, VHF, and radio station.
The engines are two Cummins QSB 6.7 (960 HP in total, less than 50 hours, still under warranty - new and installed in 12/2023), with treated propeller shafts and revised inverters. Maximum speed: 26 knots, pleasant cruising at 12-14 knots + powerful bow thruster with joystick makes port maneuvers easy.
The technical equipment is up to date: the 4 cylinders of the flaps were replaced a year and a half ago; all the through-hulls are bronze, and underwater lights are recent. No expenses to foresee below the waterline.
At anchor, the autonomy is excellent: Victron lithium batteries (12V), supplemented by 1000 W of discreet solar panels, generator, and engine alternators. This allows for very little use of the generator.
The windlass and chain are new (90m, 1200W, stainless steel anchor).
Attached to the aft beach, there is a hydraulic aft platform that descends into the water, which greatly facilitates boarding the annex. (and allows for sunbathing lying in the water but that's less of a selling point...)
The boat is also equipped with a 120 L/h desalinator, an 11 KVA 230V generator (revised), a Liebherr pro ventilated cold refrigerator, a microwave grill oven, and electric hobs.
The electricity is in 12V and 230V.
1800 L diesel tank and 500 L freshwater tank + 120L/h desalinator.
