The 2013 Back Cove 34 is a popular Downeast-style cruiser known for its classic aesthetics, single-engine efficiency, and comfortable, well-appointed interior.  This model is highly regarded for its blend of classic style, practical design, comfortable amenities, and reliable performance, making it a popular choice for coastal cruising and overnighting.

Key Features and Design:

• Downeast Heritage: True to the Back Cove brand, the 34 embodies the timeless Downeast design, characterized by a spooned bow, gentle sheer line, and a reverse transom. This gives it a classic, elegant look.
• Single-Engine Power: The 2013 Back Cove 34 is typically powered by a single Cummins QSB 6.7L 480-horsepower diesel engine with direct drive. This configuration is favored for its fuel efficiency, ease of maintenance, and lower operating costs compared to twin-engine setups.
• Construction: Back Cove boats are built with quality in mind. The hull is often vacuum-bagged and PVC-cored, with solid fiberglass stringers co-infused for a robust, one-piece structure. Decks are cored with balsa for strength and weight savings.
• Helm Deck and Galley: The helm deck offers a semi-enclosed bridge deck with a full galley to starboard and a dinette to port that can comfortably seat four adults and often converts to an additional berth. Two drawer-style refrigerators are typically found under the helm seats. The helm often features a comfortable Stidd seat and a comprehensive electronics package (often Garmin).
• Accommodations Below Deck:
  • Master Stateroom: Forward, you'll typically find a comfortable island queen berth with drawers and storage below.
  • L-Settee: To port, an L-shaped settee with an inlaid teak table converts to a second berth, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for up to four people in the cabin. Privacy can be provided by a curtain.
  • Head: A standout feature on the 34 is the spacious head to starboard, which includes a separate stall shower – a highly appreciated amenity on a boat of this size.
  • Headroom: The cabin generally boasts generous headroom, around 6'6".
  • Finish: The interior is typically finished with varnished cherry joinery, premium hardware, and a durable synthetic teak and holly sole.
• Cockpit: The cockpit features an L-shaped bench seat and a fold-away aft-facing seat, offering comfortable lounging space. Engine access is excellent, with the entire helm deck lifting hydraulically to expose the mechanical systems.
• Maneuverability: While a single-engine boat, the 34 commonly includes bow and stern thrusters, which significantly enhance maneuverability and ease of docking.
• Amenities: Common features include air conditioning (often with multiple units, including the cockpit), a Kohler generator, an inverter system for off-grid power, electric windlass, hot and cold cockpit shower, and a swim platform with a ladder.
