Meridian 381 Sedan Flybridge Sedan

Best for

• Inland and coastal cruising
• Buyers prioritizing space and value
• Owners comfortable maintaining older production systems

Trade-offs

• Operating cost reflects twin-engine planing performance
• Model-year changes can materially alter layout and systems
• Older examples require close survey attention to structure, tanks, wiring and machinery

Known concerns

• No model-specific concern has been promoted to B-Atlas’s evidence threshold. This does not mean the model has no age-, condition- or hull-specific risks.

Inspection focus

• Verify moisture around deck hardware, windows, hatches and rail bases
• Inspect flybridge, arch, windshield and upper-deck penetrations for water intrusion and structural movement
• Inspect fuel, water and waste tanks plus hoses and fittings
• Inspect engines, transmissions or sterndrives, exhaust and cooling systems
• Review AC/DC wiring, shore-power equipment and documented electrical modifications
• Confirm steering, trim-tab and generator operation where fitted
