2025 Back Cove 412 Boat in West River, MD 20778 US

2025 Back Cove 412 - HALLELUJAH

Virtually New | Fewer Than 70 Hours | Volvo Extended Warranty Through October 2030

Introducing HALLELUJAH, an extraordinary 2025 Back Cove 412 with fewer than 70 hours on her upgraded Volvo D11 725-hp diesel, an extensive collection of premium factory and dealer options, and Volvo extended warranty coverage through October 2030.

HALLELUJAH enjoys a truly unique distinction: she is the actual yacht selected by Back Cove to represent the 412 in brochures, advertising, magazine features, and promotional photography. The manufacturer's beautiful marketing photographs feature this very boat, not a sistership. Quite literally, she is the Cover Girl of the Back Cove 412.

Finished in striking Flag Blue with a white boot stripe and gold cove stripe, HALLELUJAH is exceptionally well appointed, featuring an upgraded Garmin electronics suite, FLIR thermal imaging, Starlink connectivity, premium interior appointments, and numerous thoughtful factory upgrades.

A Proven Cruising Yacht, Further Refined

The Back Cove 41 has long been regarded as one of the most desirable Downeast cruising yachts in her class. Her timeless styling, exceptional craftsmanship, comfortable ride, and practical engineering have earned her a devoted following among knowledgeable yachtsmen who appreciate a yacht that is as sensible to own as she is enjoyable to operate.

The new model Back Cove 412 builds upon this highly successful platform, retaining the proven hull geometry and comfortable interior arrangement while introducing meaningful refinements in handling, visibility, ergonomics, systems, and serviceability.

The result is a beautifully executed evolution of an already exceptional cruising yacht - more refined, more functional, and even easier to operate and maintain.

Perhaps the greatest appeal of the Back Cove 41/412 is her remarkable versatility. Unlike many performance cruisers that are happiest operating within a relatively narrow speed range, the Back Cove is equally at home enjoying an economical displacement-speed cruise, running comfortably in the mid-20-knot range, or adjusting her speed to suit changing weather and sea conditions.

Her proven hull delivers a reassuring, comfortable ride in a seaway, with the flexibility to slow down when conditions warrant or make a faster passage when desired. Whether cruising the Chesapeake, exploring the Bahamas, making extended coastal passages, or undertaking the Great Loop, the 412 is an exceptionally capable and adaptable yacht.

For Great Loop enthusiasts in particular, her economical slow-speed operation, manageable dimensions, relatively shallow draft, comfortable accommodations, and straightforward single-diesel propulsion make her an especially appealing choice. Her relatively low air draft further enhances her cruising flexibility, subject to confirming bridge clearances along the intended route.

Equally important is Back Cove's commitment to practical engineering. A well-organized engine room, excellent machinery accessibility, and convenient day-hatch access for routine inspections make maintenance and servicing refreshingly straightforward. The single-engine arrangement further contributes to the relative simplicity and economy of ownership.

Combined with Back Cove's loyal owner following, enduring appeal, and strong resale reputation, these qualities make the 412 an outstanding choice for the discerning cruising yachtsman.

What's New for 2025 - Back Cove 412 vs. Back Cove 41:

For the 2025 model year, Back Cove introduced a collection of significant improvements to the highly successful 41, resulting in the new 412 designation.

While retaining the original hull geometry and interior layout, these updates enhance visibility, ventilation, helm ergonomics, machinery access, cockpit functionality, and overall ease of ownership.

Notable 2025 Back Cove 412 Improvements Include:

• Remote Helm Fuel Tank Switching System: Convenient fuel tank selection from the helm, with manual backup in the engine room.

• Frameless, Direct-Bonded Pilothouse Windows: Updated glazing with opening port and starboard windows for a cleaner appearance and improved ventilation.

• Full-Height, Single-Panel Helm Door: New hinged pilothouse door providing convenient access to the side deck, particularly valuable when docking or handling lines.

• Low-Glare Helm: Redesigned helm area with black windshield mullions to help reduce reflections and improve visibility.

• New Glendinning Shore-Power Cord Reel: Powered extension and retraction for easier shore-power handling.

• Updated Cockpit Cushions: Magnetic attachments simplify access to cockpit storage compartments.

• Forward-Opening Engine Hatch: Improved access to the engine room for maintenance, inspection, and servicing.

• Sliding Salon Door with Power Window: Updated salon door incorporating an electrically operated starboard window for enhanced ventilation.

• New Cockpit Configuration Options: Choice of an aft-facing seat with grill cabinet and refrigerator, or two aft-facing seats. HALLELUJAH features the grill/refrigerator arrangement and additional seating.

• Volvo D8 600-hp Engine Now Standard: Updated standard propulsion offering for the 412.

• Volvo D11 725-hp Engine Option with Slow Speed Mode: HALLELUJAH has this upgraded engine, providing enhanced control during docking and close-quarters maneuvering.

These improvements further refine the Back Cove's already exceptional combination of performance, practical engineering, and casual elegance. They reflect Back Cove's continued commitment to improving a proven design through thoughtful, owner-focused engineering.

Impressive Performance & Remarkable Efficiency

Powered by the upgraded Volvo D11 725-hp diesel, HALLELUJAH offers an exceptional combination of performance, efficiency, and operating flexibility.

Published factory performance testing of the proven Back Cove 41 hull with the same engine demonstrated some particularly impressive numbers:

• 7.4 knots at just 2.0 gallons per hour - outstanding economy for extended displacement-speed cruising.

• 20 knots at 20 gallons per hour - an excellent balance of speed and fuel consumption.

• 24 knots at 25 gallons per hour - impressive fast-cruise performance.

• 29.5 knots at wide-open throttle - performance approaching 30 knots.

These figures illustrate the remarkable operating range that distinguishes the Back Cove design, allowing owners to tailor their passages to conditions, schedules, and cruising preferences.

Note: Performance figures are based on published Back Cove 41 factory testing with the Volvo D11 725-hp engine. Actual performance aboard HALLELUJAH may vary with loading, equipment, and conditions.

Of particular significance is Volvo's Slow Speed Mode, included with the upgraded 725-hp D11 on the new 412. This feature allows the propeller to operate at reduced speeds while the engine remains at idle, providing finer low-speed control for docking, maneuvering in tight quarters, and navigating confined waterways.

Combined with Back Cove's Easy Dock system, electric power steering, and Zipwake automatic trim control, HALLELUJAH offers outstanding maneuverability and ease of operation.

Adding considerable value and peace of mind is her Volvo extended warranty coverage through October 2030 - an especially attractive benefit on a yacht with fewer than 70 original engine hours.

Beautifully Appointed & Exceptionally Equipped

HALLELUJAH's striking Flag Blue hull, accented by a white boot stripe and gold cove stripe, beautifully complements her classic Downeast lines and understated elegance.

Her interior features upgraded Ultraleather Hail upholstery, twin premium STIDD helm chairs, a custom décor package, and the beautifully executed joinery and craftsmanship that have become hallmarks of the Back Cove brand.

The bright, inviting salon offers excellent visibility, comfortable seating, and a natural connection to the cockpit, creating an ideal environment for both extended cruising and casual entertaining.

At the helm, an impressive Garmin navigation and electronics package features twin 19-inch GPSMAP 9219 multifunction displays, Garmin Fantom 24x radar, Reactor 40 autopilot, AIS, FLIR thermal imaging, and Starlink connectivity. This sophisticated suite of equipment complements the yacht's excellent sightlines and intuitive operating characteristics.

The cockpit is equally well appointed, featuring the SureShade SilentGlide electric awning, electric grill, Indel refrigeration, additional aft-facing seating, removable teak table, and synthetic teak swim platform.

Whether entertaining dockside, enjoying an afternoon on the water, or embarking on an extended coastal adventure, HALLELUJAH offers an exceptional balance of performance, comfort, and casual elegance.
