Sabre 42
7 / 33 - score 57%
The Sabre 42 is a 41.75ft masthead sloop designed by Roger Hewson and built in fiberglass by Sabre Yachts (USA) between 1987 and 1989.
62 units have been built.
The Sabre 42 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
