2014 SABRE 48 Salon Express

Built by Sabre in 2014, The Dark Side is a 14.47 m motor yacht that combines elegant downeast design with proven reliability and thoughtful owner care. This Salon Express model presents a balanced combination of comfort, usability and distinctive presence on the water, finished in a striking Claret hull that draws admiring attention wherever she travels.

The Dark Side is powered by a Zeus pod drive system that delivers both operational ease and fuel efficiency, with a cruising speed of 27 knots and a capable wide-open throttle performance exceeding 32 knots. The yacht accommodates two staterooms, each with private head and shower facilities. The owner's stateroom is positioned amidships to take full advantage of the beam, featuring full walkaround bed access, generous storage and thoughtful Shoji-style design elements. The forward guest stateroom is well separated and offers comfortable privacy. The galley is positioned on the lower deck across from the owner's stateroom, offering substantial counter space and storage that facilitate both everyday cruising and entertaining.

The main salon is bright and inviting, accessed from the generous cockpit area with 360-degree views enhanced by a large skylight. The exterior spaces are well-appointed for relaxation and entertaining. This yacht suits owners seeking a well-maintained, efficiently-powered cruising platform that performs capably across longer coastal passages while offering genuine comfort and style for private family use and entertaining.
