Arguably one of the finest-running 38-foot hardtop express yachts on the water, the Sabre 38 Hardtop Express showcases traditional Maine craftsmanship blended with contemporary Downeast styling. Designed for both performance and comfort, she offers inviting accommodations and thoughtful features throughout, making her equally suited for weekend escapes or extended cruising adventures near and far.
Few modern express cruisers can match the safety, security, and ease of movement provided by her wide side decks and well-designed interior spaces. The fully enclosed, climate-controlled hardtop extends your boating season while offering exceptional visibility and protection from the elements. Whether underway or at anchor, you’ll enjoy clear, unobstructed views and the confidence that comes with one of the most respected designs in her class.
