The first Sabre 48 Salon
Express is scheduled for completion in March 2011, with the vessel expected to
debut in Australia before the end of the year.
Continuing Sabre's
traditional styling blended with the latest materials, production methods and
modern performance, this latest Sabre is the fifth model to make use of
pod-drive propulsion systems. The new Sabre 48 Salon Express will also benefit
from more internal space, greater performance, easy manoeuvrability and will be
one of the quietest high-performance, bluewater power boats on the market.
Standard propulsion
consists of twin Cummins QSC8.3 550hp engines and twin CMD Zeus 3800 pod
drives. Zeus pod drives make for the easiest manoeuvrability with touch-light joystick
control – the vessel can be taken into and out of the tightest berths with ease
by any competent helmsperson.
Modern, high-performance
hull design comprising a deep vee, long sweeping spray-chines and a wide beam
mean the Sabre 48 Salon Express will have performance credentials well in
excess of modern sports cruisers. State-of-the-art vacuum-infusion hull
construction makes for a strong and light hull with robust, offshore capability
and excellent fuel economy.
The primary social space
aboard the Sabre 48 Salon Express is above decks. A spacious deck-house holds
the helm area along with the main saloon with seating configured around a
large, solid wood table. The saloon is bright and airy with huge upright
windows offering all-round visibility. A flybridge is an optional
configuration.
Aft is an external deck
area that connects with the saloon through large patio-style doors. Whether
good or bad conditions, the Sabre 48 Salon Express will accommodate a group in
comfort, indoors and out.
The interior layout
features two staterooms, each with private ensuite facilities and separate
showers, along with a fully-equipped electric galley. All Sabre Yachts
interiors are handcrafted using solid cherrywood and elegant upholstery. Teak
and holly floors lend to a rich and warm feel. Domestic systems are supported
by an 11.5kW Onan generator as standard.
The new Sabre 48 Salon
Express is a further evolution of traditional Maine (USA) downeast-style of
boatbuilding, fusing modern techniques and performance with a classic look and
finish. With six models already ordered, the Sabre 48 Salon Express it is set
to lead the way in its class.
