A major highlight is the upgraded electronics package, centred around a 12-inch Raymarine Axiom 2 Pro with AIS, integrated day/night video camera display, Raymarine VHF and Mercury SmartCraft engine monitoring. A bow thruster, autopilot and electric throttles make handling and docking straightforward.

The M400's hardtop design provides excellent protection while retaining the open-air feel of a sports cruiser, with twin opening sunroofs overhead. Camper covers provide additional weather protection, while separate sunshade covers allow the cockpit to be enjoyed comfortably throughout summer.

The spacious cockpit has been designed for entertaining, with generous lounge seating, a wet bar with refrigerator, ice maker and sink, cockpit-mounted TV and Pioneer Bluetooth sound system.

At the stern, the large teak swim platform creates an excellent waterside entertaining area and features a freshwater shower and tender rail. A Highfield tender with 5HP Yamaha outboard is also included.

Below deck, the M400 offers an impressive amount of accommodation for a vessel of this size, sleeping up to six.

The forward master cabin provides a dedicated private sleeping area, while the aft cabin offers both double and single berths. A large saloon/lounge provides additional space to relax or accommodate guests, complemented by air conditioning throughout and a well-equipped galley with a two-burner electric cooktop.

For extended stays aboard, the vessel is supported by an Onan 7.5kVA generator with approximately 521 hours, allowing the boat's major comforts and appliances to be enjoyed away from shore power.
