The Ultimate Layout for the Cruising Couple

This is the ONLY Sabre 48 on the market with an entirely custom salon and utility room unlike any other. The original owners worked with the Sabre design team to create a unique, custom salon that feels materially bigger than the standard layout. It includes comfortable recliner seating, larger retractable HDTV, hi-low dining table, built-in ice maker, settee extension for additional sleeping and more. The totally re-imagined utility space improves storage, functionality and access without imposing on the salon. It includes a full size washer and dryer plus ample storage for spare parts, provisions for extended cruising, golf clubs, tools and supplies ---this utility space can hold it all!
