1998 Sabreline 36 AFT CABIN

1998 Sabreline 36 Aft Cabin – “Aviana”

Twin Caterpillar 3116 Diesels | 8kW Westerbeke Generator | Bow Thruster | Dual Helm Stations

Aviana is a classic 1998 Sabreline 36 Aft Cabin, combining traditional Downeast/trawler styling with the performance of a modified-V hull and twin Caterpillar diesel power. Sabre marketed the 36 Aft Cabin as a “fast trawler,” capable of approximately 20 knots, with excellent visibility from both the flybridge and lower pilothouse helm.

This is a particularly versatile cruising layout, offering two private staterooms, two ensuite heads, dual helm stations, a full galley, generator, reverse-cycle heat/air conditioning and substantial fuel and freshwater capacity. The aft master stateroom also has its own private access to the aft deck.
