Overview

Sunyata is a proven and extensively upgraded Sabre 425, recently cruised through the Bahamas, Dominican Republic, and the U.S. East Coast. She has been outfitted for serious offshore cruising and comfortable long-term living aboard, with substantial recent investment in both cruising systems and fundamental vessel maintenance.

This is not a boat waiting for a major cruising refit. Many of the expensive jobs that buyers of an older offshore sailboat commonly face have already been completed.

A Proven Offshore Design

The Sabre 425 is a highly regarded American performance cruiser, known for combining offshore capability

with excellent sailing characteristics and a comfortable interior. Sunyata has been actively cruised rather

than sitting unused. Her systems have been upgraded with practical, independent cruising in mind, including

substantial solar generation, lithium storage, watermaking capability, modern navigation electronics, satellite

communications, and strong ground tackle.

Electrical and Energy Systems

Sunyata has been substantially upgraded for energy independence while cruising. The electrical system

includes:

-- 640Ah lithium battery capacity

-- Approximately 1,000W of solar generation

-- Victron Multiplus II inverter/charger

-- DC-to-DC charging

-- Modern monitoring and charging architecture

Navigation and Communications

Her navigation and communication systems include:

-- B&G Zeus 3 multifunction display

-- Radar

-- AIS

-- B&G NAC3 autopilot

-- Starlink

-- Iridium GO

Water and Cruising Systems

A Rainman watermaker provides freshwater independence while cruising. Sunyata also comes equipped

with the systems and equipment expected aboard a vessel prepared for extended cruising, including a

capable dinghy and outboard, robust anchoring equipment, and extensive onboard storage.

Engine and Mechanical Systems

The Westerbeke diesel has received significant recent attention, including work to the fuel injection and

cooling systems. Recent mechanical and underwater work includes:

-- New propeller shaft

-- MaxProp feathering propeller

-- Upgraded engine mounts

-- Rebuilt rudder

-- Fresh antifouling

-- Full replacement of vessel seacocks

Sails and Rig

Sunyata carries a selection of sails suitable for cruising, including North sails and an unused Quantum

mainsail. The standing rigging is stainless-steel rod rigging. Detailed rigging history, sail ages, and

inspection information can be provided to serious buyers where available.

Interior

The Sabre 425 offers a comfortable cruising layout with excellent ventilation, storage, and accommodations

for extended living aboard. The interior includes a spacious salon, functional galley, dedicated navigation

area, private sleeping cabins, and generous storage throughout. Sunyata has been used as a genuine

cruising home rather than simply as a weekend vessel, and the systems and layout reflect that purpose.

Ground Tackle and Tender

Sunyata is equipped with serious cruising ground tackle, including a Rocna 60 anchor. A dinghy and

outboard are included, making the boat ready for anchoring and independent cruising.

Known Condition Items

Two localized areas of elevated deck moisture have been identified. Both areas remain firm underfoot, with

no observed structural movement. Locations and additional information can be provided to interested buyers

and inspected as part of a buyer's survey. The boat is presented transparently, and buyers are encouraged

to conduct their own marine survey and mechanical inspection.

Why Sunyata

Many boats in this age and price range require immediate investment in batteries, solar, charging systems,

electronics, autopilot, underwater hardware, steering, watermaking, communications, sails, and engine work.

Much of that work has already been done aboard Sunyata. She offers a buyer the opportunity to acquire a

capable Sabre 425 with a substantial cruising inventory and significant recent investment, rather than

beginning ownership with a long and expensive refit list.

Sunyata is ready for her next owner and her next passage.
