    DESCRIPTION:

    Substantial Refit Completed - Must See - Fresh Photos Coming Soon

    Dawn Treader is a beautiful example of the sought after Sabre 42 which has been continuously upgraded by caring and knowledgeable owners.  The Seakeeper gives her a level of stability which will make you feel more like you're on an aircraft carrier than a 42 foot private yacht.

    Most recently, she has had two new Cummins QSB6.7 (just over 100 hours since) with straight shafts, propellers custom tuned to match (and a pair of backups as well), and factory service manuals.  The engines have a transferrable major components warranty until May 2028.   She has also had a joystick control installed, satellite phone, new Weems and Plath clock and barometer, and a new convection microwave.   With updated electronics and charts, she is ready to take you where you want to go in style and comfort. 

    Read further along in the listing for the detailed list of the recent extensive upgrades and maintenance.

     


    Steering System
    Joystick Control Excerpts from the Sabre 42 Factory Description

     Her helm deck is a careful study in ergonomics, surrounded by large opening windows and overhead hatches for maximum ventilation and light. Views for the helmsman and crew are virtually unobstructed. The Stidd helm and mate’s chairs, covered in Ultraleather upholstery, provide a degree of comfort rarely found in competitors yachts. To add to cruising comfort, our engineers have reduced noise and vibration levels with a careful study of engine room ventilation and insulation.

    Wide side decks with large diameter stainless steel hand rails, custom stainless steel portlights, line chocks and air intakes, a standard rope chain windlass and highly polished aluminum hatches all add to the beauty and functionality of her deck. A double anchor roller makes anchoring work a breeze.

     Below decks her hand-crafted cherry interior adds to the sense of luxury, evident throughout. The master stateroom berth is low and wide, making it both comfortable and easy to access. The head with stall shower has private access from the stateroom and from the salon. The main salon is configured with a long L-shaped settee and a custom, maple-inlaid salon table. The guest stateroom to starboard is equipped with a pull out double berth, many drawers and lockers.
