Designed to accommodate both day cruising and overnight stays, this model features innovative design elements that enhance comfort and usability for up to 15 guests, with sleeping accommodations for four.
Exterior Design and Cockpit Layout
The exterior of the 400 SLX emphasizes generous seating and smart use of space. The aft cockpit includes an eight-foot-wide seat with a depth of 34 inches, providing ample room for relaxation. A notable feature is the power-actuated terrace on the starboard side, which when lowered extends the deck area and adds three feet to the boat's beam, enhancing social and swim platform space. The terrace is complemented by a concealed stern ladder for easy water access. The cockpit features L-shaped seating along the port side and across the stern, with storage compartments beneath the seats, including space for a carry-on cooler. Opposite this, the starboard side offers additional seating and a well-equipped wet bar area with dual electric grills, a stainless steel sink, and dual refrigerators. The cockpit is shaded by a standard hardtop standing six feet seven inches above the deck, with optional sunshades and an extendable SureShade awning that increases covered space aft.
Forward Seating and Entertainment
Forward of the cockpit, the 400 SLX provides a walkthrough windshield leading to a dedicated entertainment area. This space includes three seats with flip-up and flip-down armrests arranged around an expandable solid wood pedestal table. The seating is thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience, with integrated grab rails and dedicated storage for the table and pedestal. Additional amenities include a Fusion stereo system with connectivity, beverage holders, and strategically placed grab handles to enhance safety and ease of movement.
Interior Living Spaces and Accommodations
Below deck, the 400 SLX offers comfortable accommodations suitable for overnight stays. The main cabin features six feet three inches of headroom and wraparound seating around an expandable pedestal table that can convert into a berth for two. Storage is abundant beneath the seats and in various compartments, complemented by a 32-inch TV mounted on the port bulkhead, a refrigerator, and a microwave. A mid-berth provides additional sleeping space for two, with generous storage and overhead clearance. The boat also includes a wet head with a hall-side window, a mirrored storage cabinet, a vessel sink set on a Corian countertop, and further storage below, ensuring convenience and comfort for extended outings.
