Details
NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN is a wonderful example of the Back Cove 37 Downeast model. She has been lightly used and is lift kept and in excellent condition. Her layout is extremely social with ample seating options in the pilothouse and the cockpit. The pilothouse and cockpit are on one level which only furthers the sense of the boat being very well connected. The interior feels especially open and airy with the Herreshoff style woodwork of white bulkheads and varnished teak wood trim. Back Cove really hit the mark with this model for those looking to take friends and family out for day trips. She is well equipped and capable for those weekend and longer trips as well. “Practical Elegance” is Back Cove’s tag line, and it perfectly describes this model with her beautiful lines, layout and amenities as well as her low maintenance and excellent fuel efficiency.
