2010 Intrepid 430 Sport Yacht Sold Boat in San Diego, CA 92111 US

Once again, the outboard motor has changed the face of boating. Today's outboards combine high levels of power and efficiency with lower maintenance, lower noise, and ease of use other propulsion can't match.Intrepid's 430 Sport Yacht is one of the best.

The 430 Sport Yacht takes full advantage of having motors outside the boat with its master cabin, large head, and massive stowage and service access. The performance that a trio of outboards can deliver is heightened by the highly refined surfaces of its single-step hull and amplified by its stiff, light-but-strong, vacuum-bagged construction. It's a gas to run. And while a couple could hit the islands for a week aboard this boat, it offers considerable capacity as a racy, spacey, big-water dayboat. The 430 Sport Yacht is unrivaled in many areas.

Superior Interior

L. Francis and Nat Herreshoff were legendary designers and were the world's first large-scale production boatbuilders. They knew how to keep a cabin from feeling like a cave, even though their largest boats rarely incorporated standing headroom. They used lots of ports and windows as well as strategically positioned skylights over tables or work areas. Above all, they used brightwork -- oiled or varnished wood -- sparingly and low: Above waist level, white finished bulkheads and cabinetry reigned, with dark wood used only for definition.

Now step inside the 430 Sport Yacht's cabin. Large, fixed hull windows in the forward berth and aft stateroom combine with skylights over the galley, salon settee, master berth, and head vanity. The sole is teak and holly. Galley cabinets, are medium-toned, book-matched wood laminate topped with faux stone. The headliner is white fiberglass, which imparts a lighter feel than wood. Cabin and head doors are also white fiberglass. Yes, the Herreshoffs denigrated fiberglass, but even they would applaud the way the doors on this boat are made. Instead of using cheap, extruded aluminum frames on which to hang the doors, mating rabbets are molded into the bulkhead and each door's interior edge, forming the frame and stop. The fit is so seamless that, when closed, the doors nearly disappear into the bulkhead. 

Behind one door, in the space inboard engines might occupy, I discovered a queen-size berth with walk-in headroom. Directly above is a skylight -- a deck hatch, really, though from topside you wouldn't know it. Like all the hatches and skylights aboard the 430 Sport Yacht, this one is flush with the surface above, which contributes to the seamless look of the exterior. Also, it can be opened only from within, which adds security.

The head is opposite this stateroom, occupying the balance of the space below the helm area. A stall shower with a gorgeous seat offering built-in stowage,  and another strategic hatch-cum-skylight make it functional and pleasant.

Topside accommodations aboard the 430 Sport Yacht are amenable, best illustrated by the electrically convertible sunpad, which is incorporated into the athwartship leg of the eight-person  L-lounge opposite and abaft the helm. Touch a switch and it folds out into the cockpit, forming a two-person tanning station.

The seat is well built, thickly upholstered, and padded with high-quality foam that doesn't bottom out. But the real credit for comfort comes from the soft, stable ride the 430 Sport Yacht delivers. It's fast, rides smooth, and responds the instant you goose the throttles. .

The aft cockpit, all 100 or so square feet of it, is a loaded with precision-fit hatches. Some conceal insulated stowage boxes. Fishboxes and livewells. But they'd hold scuba gear, deck chairs, or what have you with equal ease. Open other hatches to reveal excellent access to systems and plumbing. A boarding door and platform provide water access on the port side.
