This Sabre 38, previously named Evergreen, has recently undergone an incredible transformation made possible by the skillful hands and eye of Haven Harbour Yacht Services Paint Foreman Tony Brilz.

Before receiving its facelift, repairs were made to larger dings, scratches and cracks found on the vessel's hullsides. Multiple layers of primer were applied to fill minor imperfections before the vessel was cleaned and re-masked to receive three coats of Awlcraft 2000 Pantone Blue. The waterline was raised two inches to prevent damage to the new paint job, a project that included fresh cove and boot striping, as well as lettering for a new name: Aquasition.

Does Rock Hall stand on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay, or is it a riverside community of the Chester like neighboring Chestertown? Or, is it not so simple?
