RAYMOND - The very first Sabre yacht was
a Sabre 28 sailboat appropriately named Patience. Sabre repurchased her from
her original owners ten years ago. She is still in perfect condition but like
any 40 year old boat she did need some attention to get her back to her Bristol
condition. She had been sold in 1971 to our local dealership Handy Boat and her
retail price with options was $14,335.
In 1997, Sabre celebrated the building
of the 2000th boat, a Sabre 402 sailing yacht.
And now, some 43 years after Patience, we are extremely proud to deliver
the 3000th Sabre, a Sabre 48 Salon Express, to Boston Yacht Sales of North
Weymouth, Mass. Times have changed, and Sabre Yachts today builds powerboat
models in a range from 38 to 54 feet with a 66 footer under development for a
2015 launch. The Sabre 48 has been a strong part of the Sabre range for some
time and continues to be extremely popular in markets all over the USA. Boston
Yacht Sales has already delivered several Sabre 48s to clients in
Massachusetts.
At its two facilities in Raymond, ME,
Sabre Yachts employs approximately 160 associates. These men and women currently build four
models from 38 to 54 feet in length. In
addition, Sabre’s sister company, Back Cove Yachts, of Rockland, ME, employs
about 150 associates building the Back Cove 30, 34, 37 and the newly introduced
Back Cove 41. The Sabre 66, currently
being designed and tooled, will also be assembled at Back Cove’s 280,000 square
foot facility.
