The 2006 Sabre 38 Hard Top Express is a diesel-powered express cruiser built with a fiberglass hull and hardtop design. Twin Yanmar 440 hp engines deliver cruising speeds of 24 knots with a maximum of 30 knots, supported by a bow thruster and protected propellers in shaft tunnels. Total engine hours stand at 1,060. A Simrad autopilot and 2022 Garmin electronics suite including dual 12-inch chartplotter displays, 48-mile radar, AIS, and depth sounder handle navigation duties.
Below decks, the layout centers on a forward master berth with drawers, a convertible twin berth in the main salon, and a full head to port featuring a circular shower with pressurized hot and cold fresh water. The galley is L-shaped and positioned to port, with stainless steel sink, two-burner electric cooktop added in 2022, and combined refrigerator-freezer-icemaker drawer. The salon includes an L-shaped settee and adjustable-height dinette that converts to sleeping berth space. Topside, the open cockpit features teak decking, an aft-facing bench seat, and walk-through transom door to swim platform. Helm stations hold two Stidd chairs and a wet bar to starboard.
Power and climate systems include a 536-hour Onan genset, two AC shore power inlets with galvanic isolation, reverse-cycle air conditioning across four zones, and a comprehensive battery management system with dedicated starting batteries and house batteries all renewed in 2023. A 2022 electric cooktop and microwave support galley operations. Entertainment features Bluetooth 4-zone sound, integrated smart TV, and Starlink Wi-Fi connectivity throughout.
The hull received a 2019 Flagblue Awlgrip paint with gold cove stripe. A 2020 Mercury 6 hp four-stroke outboard and 11-foot inflatable tender are included.
