The Maverick 400 is a South African-built cruising yacht designed by Phil Southwell and constructed by Maverick Yachts, with production records indicating a single build year of 2010. As a fractional sloop with a displacement of 18739.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 11.64, it offers a balanced blend of performance and liveability for its 38.32 ft LOA.
- Best for:
- This vessel suits coastal and near-offshore cruisers who prioritize a wide beam of 24.28 ft for interior space and are comfortable managing a twin or triple keel configuration with a shallow max draft of 2.62 ft.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 3.66 and a moderate displacement of 18739.0 lb, the Maverick 400 is capable of offshore passages, though its shallow draft and specific keel configuration require careful route planning for heavy weather.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include other South African-built production cruisers from the late 2000s and early 2010s, such as the Cape Horn 40 or similar fractional sloop designs, due to shared regional construction techniques and similar displacement-to-length ratios around 204.61.
