Sea West 72

Article Abstract:

The Sea West 72 does not have the elegance of sportfishing boats, with many of its lines and shapes opposing one another, especially from the sheerline up. The deck and superstructure do not complement the hull, while the cabin trunk forward is too high. Its interior, meanwhile, was designed to offer privacy.

Sabre 402

Article Abstract:

The Sabre 402 reflects the company's reputation for well-designed boats that are ideal for both racing and cruising. The 40' boat's speed and handiness under sail are traced to a good balance among its wetted surface area, carrying capacity and sail area.
