2014 Meridian 441 Sedan BridgeCummins 480s • Zeus Pods • Joystick Docking • Major Mechanical Upgrades
Asking: $749,000 CAD
This is a well-equipped 2014 Meridian 441 Sedan Bridge with the preferred Cummins 480 HP diesel package, Zeus pod drives, joystick docking, Skyhook positioning, and a strong list of mechanical upgrades already completed.
The Meridian 441 has always had a good following because it gives you a lot of boat without jumping into a much larger yacht. It has a big salon, proper galley, two staterooms, two heads, a large enclosed bridge, and a cockpit/bridge layout that works well for the Pacific Northwest.
This one also has the part buyers should pay attention to: the mechanical side.
She is powered by twin Cummins QSB 480 HP diesels matched with Zeus pods. The boat also has joystick docking, which makes a noticeable difference around the dock, especially for owners who want to run the boat themselves without a full-time captain or crew.
There has been significant mechanical investment into this boat, including a newer/recently replaced engine, recent Zeus pod work, and updated service history. The newer engine is currently showing approximately 380 hours. Overall hours and generator hours to be confirmed.
This is not being presented as some tired older sedan bridge that has just been cleaned up for photos. The bigger-ticket items matter on a boat like this, and this one has had serious money spent where it counts.

Layout
The 441 is a practical boat. That is really the appeal.
You have the salon, galley, and dinette all on the main level, so the boat feels open and usable. It is not one of those layouts where everyone is separated into different corners of the boat.
Below, you have two proper staterooms and two heads. The forward master works well for owners, and the guest cabin gives you good flexibility for family, guests, kids, or another couple.
The bridge is a big part of why people like these boats. It gives you great visibility, lots of seating, and an ideal place to run the boat or spend time while underway. In our market, that matters. This is the kind of boat that makes sense for the Gulf Islands, Sunshine Coast, Desolation Sound, Princess Louisa, and longer weekends away.
Mechanical / Handling
The Cummins 480s and Zeus pod setup are a major part of the value here.
Joystick docking makes the boat much easier to handle in tight marina situations, and Skyhook is a great feature when you are waiting for fuel docks, bridges, marina traffic, or just need the boat to hold position.
For a buyer moving up from a smaller cruiser, this setup makes the transition much easier. For an experienced owner, it just makes the boat more enjoyable to use.
The recent mechanical investment is also worth noting. On boats in this size range, buyers are not just buying the layout. They are buying confidence. Engines, pods, generator, service history, and documentation matter. This boat has a much stronger story there than many similar boats on the market.
Why This Boat
There are always cheaper boats out there. There are also boats that look good online until you start digging into what they need.
This Meridian 441 should be looked at by anyone who wants a well-laid-out sedan bridge with Cummins diesels, Zeus pods, joystick docking, and major mechanical work already behind it.
The owner is selling due to a change in plans and has decided not to keep the boat long term.
Private showings available by appointment.
