An analysis of the boat show from 2022 showed that the event has an estimated total statewide economic impact of over $1.05 billion. With over 55,000 visitors attending the show in previous years, this has contributed to over $725 million in total sales resulting from the show.

Vessel Walkthrough:
Step aboard the 2018 66’ Sabre 66 Dirigo “SANDCRAB,” Sabre Yachts’ flagship model, from the hydraulic swim platform—an elegant introduction to a yacht designed without compromise. The expansive teak cockpit offers refined entertaining space with a high-gloss table for alfresco dining, seamless access to docking controls, and the quiet solidity that defines Sabre’s resin-infused Maine craftsmanship. Wide side decks and substantial stainless-steel rails provide confident movement forward.
Entering through the sliding glass doors, the salon unfolds in panoramic light. Handcrafted joinery, rich finishes, and impeccable fit and finish create an atmosphere more reminiscent of a custom build than a production yacht. The open layout flows effortlessly between cockpit and helm deck, while climate-controlled comfort and generator power support extended cruising along the Eastern Seaboard, New England, Florida, or the Bahamas.
At the helm, Volvo IPS 1200 propulsion with joystick docking and dynamic positioning transforms command into precision. Garmin glass-helm displays, integrated navigation systems, and exceptional sightlines offer complete operational confidence. The elevated helm seating invites guests to share in the passage, embodying the social elegance that defines the 66 Dirigo platform.
Below deck, the accommodations rival yachts well beyond her class. The full-beam master stateroom with king berth serves as a private retreat, complemented by beautifully appointed guest staterooms designed for extended luxury cruising. Premium materials, thoughtful storage, and refined heads with separate showers reflect the elevated standard expected from Sabre’s flagship build.
Forward, the galley integrates seamlessly into the living spaces, featuring premium appliances, solid-surface countertops, and abundant storage supporting both quiet evenings at anchor and formal entertaining. Every system onboard is engineered for reliability, from stabilization and propulsion to electrical and climate management, underscoring the yacht’s long-range capability and enduring value.
On the foredeck, the wide walkaround design and secure anchoring arrangement make handling intuitive and safe. As Sabre’s largest and most exclusive model to date, the 66 Dirigo stands in rare company, combining limited-build distinction, proven Volvo IPS performance, and timeless American craftsmanship.
