1998 Sabre 362

Step aboard and you’ll notice how thoughtfully this 362 is laid out for a sailor who actually uses their boat. The cockpit coamings are just the right height for long passages, and the primary winches are within easy reach of the helm, making short-handed sailing feel natural. Below, the joinery has that warm, solid feel Sabre is known for, with plenty of handholds exactly where you want them when the boat’s heeled over. The U-shaped galley tucks you in securely underway, yet opens to the saloon so the cook isn’t isolated. Generous deck lockers, intelligently placed tankage, and real sea berths make this a boat you can provision, load up, and actually go somewhere.

A Sabre 362 is particularly well-suited to this cruising ground’s mix of shallow approaches, choppy inlets, and longer offshore stretches. The boat’s moderate draft lets you sneak into tighter anchorages and explore quieter harbors, while the refined underbody and balanced sail plan reward you when the afternoon breeze pipes up. Fast enough to cover miles between islands, yet comfortable at anchor with a genuinely livable interior, it bridges the gap between performance and cruising comfort. Robust construction, secure deck layout, and a seakindly motion inspire confidence when the weather turns lumpy, making it an ideal partner for both weekend hops and more ambitious passages in these waters.
