Blue Moon is an outstanding example of the popular Back Cove Down East style lobster boat. She has a traditional spoon bow and her transom is gently sloped: a style that will turn heads in any harbor she enters. Below the surface she has a modern and contemporary deep-vee hull with prop recess and a SeaKeeper Ride active trim tab/stabilizer system (2025) for comfort and performance. With her Yanmar 315 horsepower 6 cylinder diesel, she will cruise at 20 knots and top out at 26. Around the docks, you will appreciate the custom sliding transom door, the maneuverability provided by her bow and stern thrusters and custom larger rudder. Featuring a Hard Top with opening aluminum wind shield and a full enclosure (2025), Blue Moon is practical and beautiful. Extensive recent upgrades and other refinements make this one a "must see"!
