The Sabre 426 is a medium displacement cruiser/racer design offering the performance of a lighter racing boat but with considerably greater cruising amenities. This combination of traditional styling and great performance is what has built Sabre Yacht’s reputation since its first model was launched in 1970.
Sabre’s attention to detail is well known. Whether it be the style and grace of a sheer, the intricate details of a deck mold blending comfort, safety and good looks, or the details found in the hand crafted interior joinery, Sabre Yachts has achieved a stellar reputation for quality and luxury.
The interior layout of the Sabre 426 offers a full beam salon with comfortable seating for all crew and guests. Storage is abundant. A very private master cabin with en-suite head and shower stall is located in the bow, and the guest cabin with queen sized berth is found below the cockpit. A full sized chart table is placed at the base of the companionway steps, opposite a full U-shaped galley.
The Sabre 426 is a sailor’s sailing yacht, equally comfortable on an overnight with friends or on a long offshore passage. Built to NMMA, ABYC, USCG and CE Category A standards
RUFFIAN'S interior is warm cherry finish, with a gleaming sole, louvered cabinet doors, numerous drawers, cabinets and abundant storage. Accommodations are comfortable for up to seven, with two private cabins, large main cabin, head with separate shower, well-designed nav station, gourmet galley with extra refrigeration, freezer, microwave, stove & oven. Ventilation is excellent. There are also two A/C units for additional comfort.
Sleeps a total of 7 in a spacious, comfortable layout. OWNER'S CABIN is forward and offers the newer cabin layout with lowered centerline berth, allowing easy easier access to both sides and more room. Headroom is 6'4". Storage is plentiful in cabinets, drawers and two cedar-lined hanging lockers. An extra door closes off the forward end of the boat for a private en-suite head.
The HEAD is accessed from owner cabin and the salon and comes equipped with Hot and Cold pressure water, 110V outlets, a separate stall shower, electric Jabsco Quiet Flush head, vanity with mirror, good ventilation and ample counter and storage space.
The MAIN CABIN offers 6'6" headroom. Two large L-shaped settees are on either side of the main salon, with the port settee extending to a double berth and the one to starboard, a single.
