Sabre: Sailing Yacht: 426
|
|
The
Sabre
426 is the fourth collaboration between Jim Taylor Yacht Design
and the Sabre Design Team. Each of these designs has been recognized by
the boating press as exceptional in both the their design and
construction. This medium displacement cruiser/racer design was named
one of Sail's Top Ten in her year of introduction and she continues as
one of Sabre Yachts most popular designs.
The Sabre 426 embraces the standards which have put Sabre's
name atop the quality spectrum of boatbuilding for the last 35 years.
Current Sabre owners and those who have followed the brand over time,
will see details here which make it feel familiar. Details which make
sense, which add to comfort, security and well being. Logical details
that, above all, make each Sabre design a great safe and beautiful
sailboat.
But details from the past are just part of the story. Keeping
up with technology has to go hand in hand with our desire to build the
finest possible sailing yachts for our clients. The Sabre 426 hull is
built using vacuum bagged, closed cell, cross linked PVC Divinycell
foam and structural E Glass, which gives her one of the strongest,
lightest, most durable structures available today. Her deck is also
cored with Divinycell.
Hull lines, underwater appendages and rigs were drawn by Jim
Taylor Yacht Design. The deck, deck styling and interior were
accomplished by the Sabre Design Team. The result is a yacht which,
like her siblings, will establish a benchmark in sailing that will
endure for many years to come. |
