Overview
The Sabre 38 Salon Express represents the latest in design and naval
architecture. The exterior profile says "downeast" but is built in the
tradition of Maine boat building: elegant, strong, steady, reliable
and seaworthy. Technology is everywhere: from the resin infused
laminates, to state of the art systems, to the pod propulsion drive
train. The hull lines are the latest thinking in vee-hulled motor
yachts and are specifically designed for the installation of pods,
offering increased fuel economy, quiet running and a pleasant dry ride.
Pods lower noise by pushing out exhaust through the propeller stream
and perhaps most importantly, allow confident boat handling when docking
or maneuvering in tight spaces.
The interior is an open design which suits a day's outing with
friends as easily as it does a longer cruise. The cockpit is raised to
a level just 5 inches below the main salon so as to connect these two
important social spaces while the aft end of the house opens with a
drop down window and a swing door.
In the main salon, a raised, U-shaped settee with fixed table
comfortably seats six. The forward end of the settee can be oriented
forward to provide a comfortable mate's seat when underway. To
starboard, aft of the standard Stidd helm seat, is a long cabinet
housing an LED television and extensive storage compartments for the
owner's gear.
The lower level features a master stateroom with an island berth and
an en-suite head with shower. A functional galley is located to port
within easy reach and sight of the main salon.
