Maverick 440 – The Ocean Awaits

Step aboard the Maverick 440, the pinnacle of South African bluewater cruising design, crafted by Maverick Yachts in Cape Town. Purpose-built for serious passagemaking, this 2022-built, 2023-launched Cruise Ready vessel combines rugged ocean-going credentials with graceful comfort.

A Pedigree of Performance

Derived from the acclaimed Maverick 400 and designed by Phil Southwell, the Maverick 440 features extended transoms for improved load capacity and smooth, efficient sailing. Built to CE Category A – Open Ocean standards, she’s a true long-range cruiser made for the world’s blue horizons.

Spacious Comfort Meets Practicality

  • The extra-wide hulls allow for impressively generous aft cabins, each boasting queen-sized, extra-length, island-style beds—ideal for restful nights at anchor.
  • The expanded beam offers not just luxury but outstanding load-carrying capacity—essential for a self-sufficient lifestyle at sea.
  • Her engine bays are spacious and accessible, a rare feature that will be deeply appreciated by hands-on owners or crew.
  • A versatile starboard fore cabin can function either traditionally or as a crew cabin with its own compact heads, basin, and hand shower—complete with direct deck access.

Elegant, Ergonomic Living

  • The 4-cabin / 3-head layout caters to privacy and flexibility, perfect for families or hosting a skipper or hostess.
  • Fully air-conditioned, with a sound-dampened generator powering onboard amenities such as a large watermaker and dive compressor.
  • The galley rivals home kitchens, featuring SMEG appliances (hob, dishwasher, microwave), washing machine, clothes dryer, and an insinkerator.

Outdoor Living with a Twist

This is the first Maverick 440 to feature a hardtop bimini, transforming the cockpit into a social haven:

  • Includes a tanning deck, U-shaped seating, and drinks table—because cruising should feel like a holiday even on passage.

Exceptional Value – Ready Now

This beautiful Maverick 440 is offered at a heavily discounted rate. A similarly spec’d new build would be approximately $200,000 USD more.

  • Excluding VAT: If purchased by a VAT-registered entity or exported, VAT will not be applicable.

Whether you’re circumnavigating or coastal cruising, the Maverick 440 brings unmatched capability, comfort, and value. All that’s missing is your sense of adventure.
