Thesailplanandriggingofeachmodelhasbeendevelopedforthebestbalancebetween
lightairperformanceandheavyweatherstability.Thesailareahasbeenselectedto
allowafullmainand150%genoatobecarrieduptoabout16knotsapparentwindwithin
themaximum25%angleofheel.However,thiswillvarywithindividualboatsdependingon
thefullnessofthesails.
Shoaldraftversionsofeachmodelhavebeendesignedwithaminimumsacrificeof
performanceforshoalwaterareas.TheSabre28andSabre30haveanoptionalshoalkeel
configuration.TheSabre34andSabre38haveanoptionalkeel/centerboardthathasbeen
carefullyengineeredforefficiencyandreliability.
Thepropellershaftofeachmodelhasbeenoffsetslightlyfromthecenterlineasthe
resultofourextensivetestingofoncenterandoffcentershaftsonexperimentalSabres
wehavebuilt.Theoffsetlocationwasfoundtohavethebestcombinationofefficiency
withminimumrudderturbulencebasedonthesetests.
AllSabremodelsundergocontinualrefinement,withalargenumberofchangesand
refinementseachyeartokeepthemintheforefrontoftheirmodelcategory.
5:01Sinceherintroductionin1979,over90Sabre30'shavebeenbuilt.Withthe
Sabrecommitmenttoperformancecruising,theSabre30hasaverymodernhull,keeland
rigdesignwhileretaininganattractive,traditionalprofile.Anexampleofher
popularityisthefactthatofthe90Sabre30'swehavebuiltonlyseveralhaveeverbeen
advertisedforresale.
TheSabre30isoftenmistakenforamuchlargeryachtbecauseofthemanylargeyacht
detailsevidentinherdecklayoutandrigging.Herownersenjoyaprideofownership
rarelyfoundinother30footers.
Hercruisingaccommodationsareexceptional.Shehas61separatedrawers,lockersand
shelves,acomfortablegalleyandaconvenientfoldawaycharttableoverthe
quarterberth.TheSabrededicationtosimple,buteffectivedesignswhichmaximize
availablespaceisillustratedbythelargemaincabintablewhichfoldsneatlyawayon
themaincabinbulkhead.TheSabre30featuresafullyenclosedheadwithshowersumpfor
herpressurewater/showeroption.
Undersail,theSabre30hasthesteadyfeelofamuchlargeryacht.Hermodern,easily
drivenhullshapeinsureseasypoweringandcomfortablesailingevenwhenshorthanded.
