2016 Sabre 42 Fly Bridge Sedan

Essex, Connecticut

$775,000

A very desirable offering, "ZANNER" is an original owner Sabre 42 with the Flybridge option offering dual station operation for the ultimate experience. She is a spectacular downeast Fly Bridge cruiser unsurpassed in the size range and category. Her owners worked closely with Sabre selecting most options and implementing many custom refinements improving on the standard yacht. From her berth in the fresh/brackish waters of the Connecticut River she has been cruised in Long Island Sound and the adjacent New England waters during the short Northern season and stored and serviced with one of the regions leading yards. No expense has been spared in her service and maintenance which is evident by her Bristol condition. 

This model from Sabre is hugely successful, many built in the Salon Express model but a percentage benefit from the Fly Bridge factory option which adds an entire other dimension to the vessel. Sightlines from the bridge are spectacular as well as beneficial for navigation observing traffic, channel markers and sea state. If conditions dictate use of the lower station, this is a totally functional station also with excellent sightlines and the pilothouse door enables the skipper to easily help out on deck. The joystick maneuvering with skyhook makes close quarters maneuvering and docking a cinch!

"ZANNER" is one of the most tastefully and thoughtfully appointed cruising yachts in her class and it shows! Please arrange your inspection soon.
