1984 Sabre 38

The 1984 Sabre 38 MK1 is a fiberglass sailing yacht known for its classy design and responsive performance. Powered by a 33 hp Westerbeke diesel engine with 2,417 hours, the boat is direct-drive with a two-blade propeller. The standing rigging was replaced in 2012 and professionally inspected in 2025 with positive results. Recent upgrades include new AGM batteries (2024), 180-watt solar panels (2023), and full LED lighting (2023).

Below deck, the yacht offers three cabins and one head with two cabin berths forward and two salon berths. Fresh water capacity totals 106 gallons across two tanks, fuel capacity is 45 gallons, and the holding tank holds 40 gallons. The galley features a three-burner gas stove and oven with full equipment and refrigeration. Heating comes from a Force 10 propane heater.

On deck, electronics include a Furuno 1700 radar, Garmin GPSMap 741 GPS, Standard Horizon VHF radio, Alpha Spectra autopilot, depthsounder, wind instruments, AIS, and EPIRB. The rig carries ten winches—six self-tailing Lewmar and Barient models—with a Harken furler. Sails include a full-batten Quantum mainsail, Hood genoa, and spinnaker, all in good condition. A Lewmar electric windlass, CQR anchor with Danforth spare, dodger, bimini, and a Fairclough winter cover with frame (purchased new in 2023) complete the setup.

The boat includes extensive service records and spare parts inventory. Battery charger, inverter, and compass (Ritchie & Sons) round out the systems. Cockpit features include cushions, table, and swimming ladder.
