The most noticeable feature at the helm is the pair of Stidd seats. These have a tremendous range of adjustment, arm and foot rests - the works! They are excellent on a long passage. There is a wooden steering wheel and Sabre includes the MerCruiser DTS (digital throttle and shift) system, with Precision Pilot, Skyhook and other features. Of course, the Zeus pod-drive system includes full joystick docking.

docking, or to talk to your deckhands.
The sedan helm enjoys large areas of glass with three

make a cabin. This option gives you a beautifully finished inlaid
table in American cherry and maple for the four-person dinette
that can be used as a desk and office, or folded down to make a
double berth. There are two opening portholes, storage and this
option makes a terrific games area for grandchildren with a
flatscreen TV and two different deck hatches for daylight.
The area also has a cedar-lined hanging locker, three drawers
and like every drawer onboard the Sabre 40, they are traditional dovetail construction – an example of the excellent joinery
