in New England and “Deadrise” to those in the Chesapeake Bay. Her large, single level cockpit measuring almost 150 square feet, is designed for days on the water with family and friends. Overhead a standard Sure Shade cockpit awning extends from the back of the hard top to provide shade and protection from the sun.
On her helm deck there is seating for the crew and guests so that everyone can enjoy their time underway. Below the mates seat, a large area provides storage for water toys, folding bikes or loose chairs. Her Herreshoff style interior with white panels and cherry trim, creates a bright and welcoming space. A queen-sized island berth, full head with separate shower stall and functional galley, offer all the comforts of home for extended cruises aboard. The Back Cove Downeast 37 has a
fuel effi cient single diesel engine drive line and a standard bow thruster offering low operational and maintenance costs. She also has a standard gen set and air conditioning systems for onboard comfort. The fi rst of this line will be launched in
early July.
Lyman-Morse of Thomaston teamed up again with one of our most successful design partners - C. Raymond Hunt - to build this able, fast, 42-foot fl ybridge twin jet boat. The owners are looking forward to extended cruising along the Maine coast and islands in comfort and safety. With attention to being self-suffi cient and quiet, this new design carries the most modern and effi cient equipment available.
The hull is a full-deadrise deep-V with integral chine and lift strakes. The hull shell was infused in one of our existing Hunt 38 female moulds, previously used for a num- ber of other successful projects. Custom sheer, transom insert and jet intake mounting insert pads were added to give the boat its 42 feet. A new deck and fl ybridge mold were built for this project.
The interior is styled in mahogany; in
true Lyman-Morse style, the rich varnished woodwork fi nished to the highest standards. The launching was held at Lyman-Morse
in Thomaston on 7 June.
Brooklin Boat Yard in Brooklin re- cently launched LYNNETTE, hull #3 of the Eggemoggin 47 series. The boat was designed by Stephens, Waring & White. Her
appendages have been redesigned/opti- mized by yacht designer Jim Taylor of Mar- blehead. Construction is of wood/carbon fi ber and Epoxy resin.
According to yard owner Steve White “The boats have been extremely popular, with exceptional performance for a very attractive price. They are great boats for daysailing, weekend cruising and for par- ticipating in classic yacht regattas.”
Morgan Boat Company in Surry/Pe- nobscot is getting busier. After taking over the moulds for the Northern Bay 38 from Downeast Boats & Composites the word got out and a number of people are seriously interested in buying one of these boats. The 38 in the shop in Surry is about
fi fty percent complete. Gary Kief says that he has started on the interior. The engine is in and he is also working on getting the insulation, hydraulics and wiring done. She is scheduled to be launched next spring. The hull is done on a 40-footer, which is the 38 extended two feet. This boat is being fi nished out as sportfi sherman for a customer from Massachusetts. They have also installed the water and holding tanks, bow thruster tube and forward sole. Her engine should be arriving soon, which is a QSC 8.3 Cummins diesel. She is scheduled for a spring launch.
They are presently laying up a 38, which
will be fi nished as a sportfi sherman for a cus- tomer from New York. She will be powered with a QSM 715-hp Cummins diesel. She will also be launched next spring. They have a deposit on another 38, which they will start in August. She will have a walk-around house and powered with a QSM 11 Cummins.
Gary also said he had another customer very close to signing.
Bass Harbor Boat in Bernard has been busy all winter doing some major repair work on several wooden boats. With spring came commissionings and that kept the crew more than busy, especially fi guring in the rainy spring we had and that many of the boats needed work, paint and varnish were outside. Also if everything went well that would help but when I arrived they had just pulled the truck and hydraulic trailer out after they loaded a fl oat and they got the truck and trailer stuck in some soft ground. There were two Bunker & Ellis boats in
