Saga 409

Article Abstract:

The Saga 409, a monohull is a solid, stylish, and comfortable cruising boat that offers a glimpse of where cruising-boat design appears to be headed in the twenty-first century. The boat accelerates smoothly to 7.5 knots and the long waterline and low ballast gives a stable platform in rougher conditions.
