Accommodations

     There is room for two families aboard the SABRE 34 Mark II. An incredibly spacious, well thought out two cabin arrangement sleeps seven and has standing headroom of 6' 3".

     The owner's forward cabin has a 6' 4" V-berth, with a filler cushion to form a double, plus a vanity for storage of your sailing gear.

     The washroom with marine head has a vanity finished in white Formica and trimmed with teak. It is accented by a matching towel bar, mirror, soap dish, and toothbrush holder.

     The main cabin takes full advantage of its volume with a port settee that slides out to form a double berth, and a settee berth to starboard. A double leaf dining table stows up against the port bulkhead when not in use. Fully deployed it seats diners on both settees. This living area is luxuriously detailed in handcrafted teak.

     Make precise navigation decisions from a comfortable and well lit chart table. A chart storage area is located beneath the table top. SABRE's unique tool drawer is located in the face of the table along with two more storage drawers and a cabinet. Seating is on the forward end of the generously sized quarter-berth.

     The port-side walk-in galley has formica worktops for quick clean-ups, and are lavishly trimmed in teak. There is room to pack food for a week in the spacious ice-box. Prepare a family meal on the gimballed two burner propane stove with oven. Live-aboard amenities include built-in waste basket with cutting board cover and a silverware drawer. There are four lockers, two drawers, and overhead cabinetry in the galley providing ample room for a full compliment of pots, pans, and dishes.

     The teak interior is finished with hand-rubbed tung oil. The sole is teak and holly. Cushions replaced in 2000 with blue weave fabric. All interior wood surfaces and fabrics are in excellent condition.

Additional Comments

     PUFFIN has had just two owners since her launch in 1988. Hull, deck, and interior are all in excellent condition.

     The SABRE 34 Mark II graces the sea with her still contemporary proportions, high performance rig, and exceptionally spacious layout.

     She was chosen in 1986 as "Boat of the Year" by SAILING WORLD magazine for the 27' to 38' size range. Her hull configuration is an evolution from larger SABRE models and she has the sea-kindly motion of a much larger yacht.

     Her fine entry forward and long run aft gives her a performance advantage whether club racing or cruising. The U-shape of the hull forward, full aft sections, and balanced rudder enhance performance and control when reaching or surfing.

     A tall, double spreader rig allows the SABRE 34 to sail close to the wind. Main and genoa halyards are internal. Deck hardware is of the highest quality and positioned for tight upwind sheeting angles. The Lewmar self-tailing winches make tacking a breeze. Two sets of jiffy reefing, plus a topping lift and internal clew outhaul are located on the boom for easy access.

     Skippering is a pleasure from the cockpit of the SABRE 34. It is ergonomically designed for sailing efficiency and comfort even after extended hours at the wheel. Its T-shape allows full length reclining comfort with excellent functionality. A raised helmsman's seat doubles as an access hatch to a deep lazarrette locker and offers superb visibility over the 36" wheel. One of two large storage lockers features a chart pouch on the lid, an interior locker light, and a folding step for easier access. The traveler, positioned on the cabintop, creates a safer cockpit with clear companionway access, and excellent space utilization.
