This rare, beautifully maintained Sabre 42 Hardtop Express, the precursor to the enclosed salon model, is powered by twin Cummins 425HP inboards complemented by Mercury Zeus pods (765 engine hrs), which provides for a comfortable, stable, safe and thrilling ride, while also managing to be extraordinarily quiet and surprisingly efficient and economical. Balance is a one-owner yacht bought in the Fall of 2010, and has always been kept at a Westport yacht club each summer season and serviced and indoor stored almost exclusively at Petzold's Marine, the Connecticut Sabre dealer, in the off season
Below are some of the highlights:
- Flag Blue Hull
- Four zones of reverse cycle air and heat which includes the optional second helm deck unit
- Onan 11.5KW generator
- Two Staterooms
- Twin Cummins Zeus pods serviced by certified technicians and full maintenance records
- Joy-stick Skyhook and autopilot controls
- Full suite of Raymarine electronics and KVH Sat
- Wet bar on helm deck with sink and fridge
- Optional fold-down cockpit transom settee with custom cushions
- Exterior teak just wooded and multiple coats of varnish applied.
This gorgeous boat must be seen to be believed.
