Back Cove Downeast 37
Ideal for All Sorts of Exploring
Satisfy all your entertaining and exploration needs onboard the Back Cove DownEast 37. This stand-out model in the Back Cove luxury motor yacht collection features a unique layout with its single-level helm deck and open cockpit design that seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living spaces to allow all your guests to join in on the activity. The DownEast 37 is spacious and comfortable, featuring convertible elevated seating in the pilothouse, a retractable awning over the cockpit, and a Herreshoff-inspired interior of white panels and raised wooden trim.
In the air-conditioned master stateroom, an island berth with steps on both sides and plenty of storage below appears inviting after a lazy day at sea. At the base of the companionway and close to the helm is the lower galley that comes fully-equipped with a fridge, freezer, cooktop, microwave, icemaker, stainless steel sink, and solid countertop. To the starboard side aft of the master is a comfortably laid out head with a separate stall shower, full-length mirror, and built-in vanity that nicely rounds out the Back Cove DownEast 37.
Like all Back Cove Yachts, the Back Cove Downeast 37 is modelled after early Maine lobster boats and is both practical and elegant. It is powered by a Cummins QSB 6.7 480 mhp electronically controlled diesel engine that can be upgraded to a Cummins QSC 8.3 600 mph, and features ZF marine gear and a digital engine display. SeaStar hydraulic steering with a tilt helm pump and Sidepower bow thrusters with joystick control make the DownEast 37 a pleasure to operate.
The DownEast 37 comes with plenty of options and extras as well, including power assist steering, a Back Cove Easy Dock system, or a Zipwake Trim Control System. Select from a variety of optional hull gelcoat and boot stripe colours, interior fabric upgrades, electrical and mechanical upgrades, teak flooring add-ons, and additional fridge and freezer space in the galley to make sure you get everything you’re looking for in your next luxury motor yacht.
