Sabre 42 Salon Express

Walkthrough

The 2014 Sabre 42 SE is a standout in the express cruiser category. With her refined interior, smart layout, and exceptional handling, she’s equally suited for weekend getaways or extended coastal cruising. 

The cockpit is designed for both comfort and functionality, with an L-shaped aft seat with storage below, teak decking, and a grill and icemaker cabinet perfect for entertaining. Wide side decks and sturdy handrails ensure safe movement forward.

At the helm, twin Cummins QSB 6.7 380hp diesel engines paired with Zeus pod drives offer smooth, responsive handling and joystick docking. The helm station is equipped with dual Garmin 12” multifunction displays, AIS, SmartCraft diagnostics, and Skyhook positioning and Autopilot all within easy reach of the comfortable double helm seat. Overhead dual hatches add an open-air feel to the cruising experience.

The salon is bright and welcoming, with large windows, American cherry joinery, and a layout that encourages relaxation and conversation. An L-shaped settee with a high-low table sits opposite a loveseat, and a hidden flat-screen TV lifts into view when needed. Climate control is provided by reverse-cycle air conditioning and heating and opening side windows offer excellent ventilation. ,

Down a few steps, the galley is thoughtfully designed for extended cruising. It features solid-surface countertops, a two-burner cooktop, microwave/convection oven, stainless steel sink, and a refrigerator/freezer. Storage is abundant, with well-placed drawers and cabinets throughout.

Accommodations include a private forward stateroom with an island queen berth, upgraded mattress, and generous storage. The guest stateroom amidships offers a convertible dinette layout, ideal for additional sleeping space or as a flexible lounge or office area. A privacy curtain allows for separation when needed.

The head is spacious and well-appointed, with a separate shower stall, Corian vanity, electric flush toilet, and ample storage. It’s accessible from both the master stateroom and the companionway, making it convenient for guests and owners alike.

The yacht is equipped with an Onan generator, inverter, and shore power connections to support life onboard

Manufacturer Description

At Sabre Yachts our goal has always been to fulfill the dreams and wishes of our boat owners by listening carefully to their requests and blending their ideas into exciting designs. We consider our owners and potential owners to be valued members of the Sabre Design Team. The Sabre 42 is the result of our observation that our clients want to enjoy the same levels of personal luxury and comfort that they have come to expect in their homes and in their automobiles.

To that end we have developed a style of sedan, available with or without fly bridge, that permits boaters to operate from the comfort of the yacht's interior or from the openness of an optional fly bridge. Technology is advancing rapidly, and our owners have come to expect that if there is a new technology available, we will employ it in our designs. We have dramatically changed the way we build our yachts and the way in which they are propelled.

Traditional values such as fine craftsmanship and great looks remain, as our owners have come to expect, but below the surface things are state-of-the-art in our fiberglass shop we have changed infusion molding. It is greener in the sense that it uses considerably less resin and cleaner in that the emissions levels are much lower. It's lighter because we use less resin and that allows the hull to run faster and use less fuel. Infusion differs from traditional hand lay-up in that all materials are loaded dry into the mold in a stack, the stack is then covered with a plastic bag and resin is infused into the stack. This creates a stronger part with higher glass to resin ratios.

With Zeus Pod everything has changed, and nothing remains the same. The smaller engines using vectored thrust propel the boat at higher speeds using less fuel. And when maneuvering in tight spaces a joystick makes child's play of docking.
