Details
The Sabre 38 Express combines classic Down East styling and lively performance in a hardtop cruising yacht of exceptional beauty. Built on vacuum-bagged hull with a wide 13-foot, 8-inch beam and prop pockets, the focal point of the 38 Express is her semi-enclosed pilothouse with its swivel helm and companion seats, folding teak table, and full wet bar with refrigerator and ice maker. Stepping below, the handcrafted cherry interior of the 38 Express offers all the conveniences and amenities sophisticated cruisers demand, from a recessed entertainment center with flat-screen TV and DVD player to a beautiful inlaid dinette table crafted in cherry and bird’s-eye maple. A sliding door separates the master stateroom from the salon, and the compact but functional galley is positioned close to the companionway steps where it’s convenient to the helm deck. The hardtop has a pair of screened hatches for ventilation and the side windows slide open. The wide side decks of the Sabre are notable.
