Looking for info on Sabres

Hi:
I'm located in the No Cal, where I sail the SF Bay and where we get a wide range of conditions depending where you're at. On any given day you can come acroos light winds from 10 mph to heavy winds at 40 mph.
I currently have a 34' Irwin, which I become quite attached to. However, I'm ready for a larger boat that can accomodate two couples and kids for overnight stays. Also, I'm looking for a more stable boat. My wife doesn't like too much heeling. Imagine that?
Anyway, I'm trying to see if there's anybody out there that has anything to say about Sabres in general or particularly the 38' Sabre MK1 w/ aft cabin built in 1986 or so. ALso, are there any websites specific to used Sabres.
I appreciate your help and input.
Regards,
Joe

If your wife is really against heeling, you might want to look at a catamaran. A 34' cat will often have enough space to have three cabins, and that would allow you to accommodate the two couples and several kids fairly easily. Just my $.02 worth.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
