I have been on and ran next to multiple Sabers and they run above average to say the least. Really great boats that are well built. I also have at least 2 close friends that have had other brands of boats fixed or upgraded by Saber, top knotch work you wont find better!

Awesome boat and solid. I Owned original blood red original many years ago. I use to frequent the factory when in comstock park often and was amazed at the workmanship and pride that went into them. Doug and his brother great.
A little faster bottom than my compatible 28 challenger super v28 however are a few little comprises in rough water re entry. Sabers still in business.
Funny I was just looking at the 2105 FS. I would love a ride in the 34'. I was around the shop while the first was being rigged. It's gotta be a playa big time on lake MI.
Going to have much more time here soon for the Great Lakes. Been a long time coming.

Awash, others have given you lots of great information. One thing I see right off the bat is you are spelling it wrong. It is Saber Marine not Sabre. That makes a difference when you are looking for the mfg and getting "book values" There is a Sabre Yacht mfg that builds boats in Maine, it is a totally separate company. Saber Marine / Saber Boats is a small custom boat builder in Michigan.

FYI, I love my 28 Saber!! Next time I'm down at the lake you are welcome to look it over and I'll take you for a ride. (Keep in mind, mine is a old race boat, so it is more of "Old Hot Rod" than a family cruiser)

I've owned both - a lot is different, there is a thread about it. In short, the Apache's strength is it's weakness and the same goes for the Saber. The Apache is a much heavier boat and wider. The Saber is much narrower and lighter.
