Manufacturer Description
The 48 Salon Express has a traditional exterior profile that belies her contemporary performance. She cruises at 27 knots and, and at wide open throttle, she’ll attain 35 knots. Pod drives and joystick controls give every owner-operator the confidence to dock her in the most difficult of circumstances, and remarkably low sound levels while underway allow for a more pleasant experience while cruising.Featuring a standard configuration of two cabins and two heads, the 48 Salon Express is supplemented by a utility space forward of the engine room. Designed with our customers in mind, her galley-down layout doesn’t compromise on space and light, making food and drink preparation a pure pleasure. Unique to the Sabre 48 design, her master berth and en-suite head have an athwartships orientation, allowing for flat cabin sole on all side of the spacious island queen.HullModified Deep “V” Planing hull design14º deadrise at transom, 23º deadrise amidships.ISO NPG white gelcoat w/vinylester backup resin.Bottom, topsides and transom VIP resin infused biaxial E-glass with Corecell SAN foam core.Stringer system biaxial E-glass with foam core.Resin Infused E-glass swim platform with molded-in anti-skid surface.Hull side rubbing strakes.White PVC rub rail with stainless steel cap.Painted (Urethane) double boot top.Gold recessed cove stripe.Deck and HardtopISO NPG gelcoat.VIP resin infused biaxial E-glass with balsa core.Molded-in anti-skid deck surfaces.Companionway door to port.Sliding windows in salon on cabin sides.Electric opening window in salon aft bulkhead.Hinged access door to side deck at helm.Flush, outward opening, transom door with latch.Anchor locker with slam latch.Large lazarette/engine room access hatch in cockpit sole with compression latches.Integrated Sure Shade system over cockpit1 1/4″ Diameter type 316 stainless steel perimeter rail system.(6) 12” Stainless steel cleats: two forward, four mid-ship.(2) Stainless steel bollard cleats aft(2) Stainless 12″ cleats on cockpit coaming on centerline10” Stainless steel cleat to starboard of windlass as anchor rode tie off.(4) Custom cast stainless steel mid-rail line chocks.Custom cast stainless steel skene chocks forward.Custom stainless steel bow pulpit with dual anchor roller.Quick anchor windlass, electric rope-chain typeTeak flag staff and socket on taffrail.Burgee staff on bow pulpit.(6) Low Profile stainless steel hatches w/screens.(6) Custom stainless steel opening port lights.Teak cabin-side eyebrow.Teak table in cockpitCustom cast stainless steel “SABRE” logoRaw and fresh water washdown systems at the bow.Kahlenberg triple chrome air hornHelmHinged access door to starboard side deck.Dual Volvo-Garmin 8617 Multi-Function Displays (MFDs) w/ Separate SD Card Readers.Volvo-Garmin A7xs Mutli-Function 7" DisplayGarmin satellite weather moduleGarmin 4kw 4' open array radarGarmin Class B AISGarmin VHFGarmin wireless remoteGarmin sounder moduleAirmar wind moduleVolvo-Penta Autopilot w/ Joystick Driving.Volvo-Penta IPS Plus Joystick Controller on Stidd Armrest.Twin Lever Shift & Throttle Control (EVC-E) w/ Single Lever & Cruise Control Software.Seakeeper 6 control/displayFusion stereo remote connected into NMEA backboneTriple windshield wipers w/ multiple speed settings.Windshield washers plumbed from the fresh water system.Ritchie Compass.Switch controls for horn, running lights, anchor light, engine room blowers, & bilge pumps.Custom teak steering wheel w/ tilt helm & Sabre logo.Twin Stidd N Series helm seats w/ Ultraleather® fabric mounted on a cherry cabinetACR spotlight controlMasterIsland berth athwartship layout with 9″ foam mattress and laminated trim.Hull side deadlight over head boardShoji style passageway and closet doorsShoji style portlight screen panelsCherry hull ceilings.Drawers under berth and in bulkhead aft of berth.(2) hanging lockers fore and aft of bed.Teak and holly sole.Sound deadening soft headliner panels.Sliding door to master head compartmentWall mounted TVMaster HeadPrivate access from master stateroomCustom tile in WC and shower soleGlass vessel style sinkHigh gloss finish over solid cherry counter.Vanity cabinet below sinkStorage outboardMirror above vanity, cherry framedSeparate shower stall with clear bi-fold enclosure and glass tile accent wall withinElectric shower sump pumpOpening port to side deckDeck hatch with blind/screen overheadVentilation blowerStainless steel towel barsVIP StateroomSpacious island berth, with 9" mattress and laminated trimCherry hull ceilingsDrawers under berth, A/C return grille besideStorage lockers, drawers, and shelvesTeak and holly soleSound deadening soft headliner panelsPrivate access to the forward head and shower Guest HeadStainless steel under mount sinkShower stall with seat and locker outboardHot and cold pressure waterElectric shower sump pumpStorage lockersSolid surface vanity top with bull noseTowel bars - Soap dispenserCherry wood trimmed mirror over the sinkVentilation blowerGalleySolid surface countertopStainless steel under mount sink with cover and pull-out faucetSoap dispenserIsotherm stainless steel stand-up refrigerator (top) and freezerTouch control induction cooktopConvection microwave with stainless steel faceDrawers and storage lockers below the counterBuilt-in waste basket.
