Please review the listing for "STARDUST" carefully as she is a one of a kind Sabre 42 HX Hard Back with extensive custom modification performed by the talented production team at Sabre. Many design elements were adopted from the Sabre 52 Salon Express which reflected Sabre's greatest achievement in production at the time. Numerous elements of the 52 layout were adopted especially in the areas of galley, head & shower compartment, helm station and pilothouse salon. Very different from the stock 42 Express "STARDUST" is more a reflection of a mini 52. Below decks her hand-crafted cherry interior adds to the sense of luxury finished to the superior level of detail fit and finish found in the 52. The master stateroom is larger than normal with added cabinetry and storage. The queen berth is low and wide, making it both comfortable and easy to access. The head is also enlarged vs the standard with extra-large stall shower with custom tile floor. The pilothouse salon is configured with an L-shaped settee and a custom, maple-inlaid salon table. The aft enclosure enables this space to become the main salon dedicating more space below to the guest stateroom to starboard with queen berth and expansive galley along the port side. The custom galley is equipped with Sub Zero drawer refrigerators (2), wine cooler, Fisher Paykel drawer dish washer, electric cook top, convection microwave oven and expanded lockers and drawers creating abundant storage for extended voyages. The galley counter is Granite and offers plenty of surface space to prepare meals for a gang. The aft enclosure allows an interior finish in the pilot house vs. the fiberglass exterior style appointments on the standard 42. This adds a whole new element of comfort and sophistication. The helm deck is a careful study in ergonomics, surrounded by large opening windows and overhead hatches for maximum ventilation and light. Views for the helmsman and crew are virtually unobstructed 360 degrees. The Stidd helm and mate's chairs, covered in Ultraleather upholstery, provide a degree of comfort rarely found in competitors yachts. To add to cruising comfort aboard "STARDUST" Sabre engineers advanced the noise and vibration reduction with a careful study of engine room ventilation and insulation. The custom hard back enclosure separates the helm deck from the cockpit with the addition of two elegant curved windows in the corners, sliding windows to port and a powder coated aluminum entry door. The large cockpit with custom sun shade provides plenty of outdoor lounging and entertaining space including a Gaggenau electric grill. Wide side decks with large diameter stainless steel hand rails, custom stainless steel portlights, line chocks and air intakes, a standard rope chain windlass and highly polished aluminum hatches all add to the beauty and functionality of her deck. A double anchor roller makes anchoring breeze.
