SOUTHERN CROSS | Sabre 386 | 38ft

INTRODUCTION

Sabre Yachts worked together with renowned designer Jim Taylor to launch the Sabre 386 in 2004, earning awards for“Boat of the Year” by Cruising World Magazine in 2005. She embodies all one could hope for in a performance cruising yacht –exceptional handling and boat speed; functional and comfortable design details above and below deck, and a level of quality Maine craftmanship and attention to detail unmatched by other production builders.

SOUTHERN CROSS is a very nicely equipped example of this successful model that has benefited from many valuable upgrades as noted herein and is in excellent condition.
