Description

1961 Century Sabre with a unique piece of watersports history behind it. This boat was formerly owned by Herb O’Brien, founder of O’Brien Water Skis (now HO Sports), and was professionally restored in the 1980's by Dave Lobb. The boat presents well with classic Century styling, elegant lines, and timeless mahogany craftsmanship throughout. Powered by a Crusader V8 engine, which is in great overall condition and runs strong, though it could use some light tuning to be fully dialed in. A rare opportunity to own a collectible classic with documented provenance tied to one of the biggest names in water skiing history.
