Description
Looking for a well-maintained, ready-to-sail cruiser? Our 1979 Sabre 28 is available now, fully serviced, winterized, and in fantastic condition. After 10 great summers, it’s time to pass it on to someone who will love and sail it as much as we have. Key Features: ✔ Turnkey & Ready to Sail – Just step aboard and go! ✔ Recently Updated – Full topside repaint, beautifully refinished teak, and a fully rewired shore power system (Spring 2023). ✔ Reliable Universal M-30 Diesel Engine – Replaced in the early 2000s, well-maintained & serviced yearly (exact hours unknown). Runs great. ✔ Solid Hull & Rigging – No major issues. Epoxy resin sealer applied 5-6 years ago to prevent osmosis. Antifouling done annually. ✔ Plenty of Sails & Gear – Backup genoas, storm sail, all in ready-to-go condition. Standing and running rigging are in acceptable condition for a boat of its age. ✔ New Tiller Pilot Installed – Easy solo sailing with a brand-new tiller pilot included. ✔ Interior Comfort & Storage – Fully refinished woodwork and cushions. Comes with a stove, galley setup, and ample storage for cooking essentials. ✔ All Safety Equipment Included – Life jackets, fire extinguishers, flares, and everything else needed to set sail today. Bonus: Hard-Bottom Zodiac Dinghy & Coveted Yamaha 9.9HP Outboard Available A 13ft Brig Zodiac hard-bottom dinghy is available as an add-on, powered by a rare & highly sought-after 2008 Yamaha 9.9HP outboard engine—known to be bulletproof and no longer in production, making it incredibly hard to find. Truly Turnkey – Step Aboard & Go! The boat is fully stocked with blankets, pillows, cookware, and more – if you want to take it as-is today, it’s ready to go. Currently docked at Outer Harbour Marina in Toronto, and if purchased this season, you can keep the dock slip for the remainder of the year. Serious inquiries only. Let’s get you sailing this season!
