2017 Sabre 42 Salon Express

This 2017 Sabre 42 Salon Express is a downeast-style cruising yacht built on a fiberglass hull measuring 42 feet 6 inches in length with a 14-foot beam. Twin Cummins QSB 6.7 diesel engines totaling 850 horsepower drive Zeus pod units with joystick control, combining responsive handling with efficient performance. The yacht is finished in navy blue with red bottom paint.

Electronics are comprehensive and modern: dual Garmin 7616 multifunction displays at both helm stations, Garmin Open-Array radar, autopilot, VHF, and AIS with integrated engine data monitoring. The integration of navigation and engine systems supports both casual cruising and longer passages.

The interior layout accommodates two staterooms with a master cabin forward and a single head with separate shower. The salon is open and bright with 360-degree views, anchored by a factory hardtop with sliding sunroof hatches. A cherry wood interior provides warm finished surfaces throughout. The galley features solid-surface countertops and quality joinery; the cockpit offers generous seating with teak accents and direct access to the salon. Fuel capacity is approximately 380 gallons; water capacity is approximately 140 gallons.

The design balances traditional downeast aesthetics with modern comfort and intuitive operation. The relationship between salon and cockpit enables flexible entertaining and living aboard.
