SABRE
45 SALON EXPRESS
The Sabre 45 Salon Express is a 49-foot Downeast motor yacht built by Sabre Yachts in Raymond, Maine. Twin Volvo Penta IPS pod drives with joystick control make it easy to handle for a couple, and a fully enclosed, climate-controlled salon means you can boat on cool or wet days, not just perfect ones. Two staterooms, two full heads and room for a washer/dryer make it a true extended cruiser.
Cockpit and decks. A U-shaped settee and table make the cockpit a natural spot for sunset dinners and guests. Wide side decks and solid handholds make it easy and secure to move forward to handle lines.
Salon and galley. The salon steps down to a bright half-up galley, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The helm has joystick docking and Volvo’s integrated pod controls, and newer boats add Sabre Connect for remote monitoring and network-controlled climate.
Below. There are two staterooms, each with its own full head, so owners and guests can settle in for longer trips. A dedicated utility room between the guest stateroom and engine room has space for a washer/dryer or wine chiller without giving up storage.
