The Back Cove 29s have proven to be as popular as they are pragmatic. Decent side decks with railings, single screw efficiency, and thanks to the bow thruster, ease of handling as well. Pocket cruising accommodations for two, but day trip entertaining for seven or eight!

� This lucky Back Cove 29 has had just 2 owners and has always been stored at the same yard since new, in inside heated storage no less!

From spoon bow to gently sloped transom, the design elements of the Back Cove 29 speak to her Maine lobster boat heritage. Yet below the surface is a modern deep-vee hull just waiting for her owner to push the throttle forward and to jump up onto plane. With ample room in her cockpit and comfortable amenities below, she is a yacht that will give her owners years of pleasure and immense pride of ownership, at a cost which is considerably lower than for custom boats of this type. Launched at the Newport International Boat Show in the fall of 2003, Back Cove 29s have received critical acclaim from both the yachting press and discriminating owners.
