Introducing the updated Back Cove 372

The Back Cove 372 Downeast-style powerboat was originally launched as the Back Cove 37 in 2009. It has enjoyed an eleven-plus-year uninterrupted run resulting in more than 200 hulls. When the production molds for the Back Cove 37 finally gave out in 2020 due to boatbuilding wear-and-tear, the Back Cove Design team seized the opportunity to reexamine the 37.

New Design

Accordingly, the designers used over a decade of owner feedback and recent design advancements to create the new model. The result was a boat full of fresh details that earned its own designation. Enter the newly redesigned Back Cove 372. The new Back Cove 372 is full of fresh details that are tailored to today’s cruising and boating lifestyles, yet it retains the classic character and heart of a proven winner.

Highlights:

• First, a more efficient 24V DC electrical system with less copper weight, resulting in a lighter boat with increased run time on the bow and optional stern thrusters.
• Next, more engine options: a Cummins QSC 8.3 600hp diesel engine with a 7″ display as standard and a Volvo Penta D8 diesel with a 7″ Garmin display as an option. This adjustment is result of owner preference, with more than 95% of Back Cove 37 owners opting for a larger-than-standard engine since 2009.
• Thirdly, a black windshield liner and an upholstered helm pod reduce glare at the helm. Updates to the helm pod include new materials for durability and stain resistance, and increased space for navigation electronics
• Next, a fixed-glazed pilothouse windows replace sliding windows, offer enhanced sightlines, and are complemented by a center-opening windshield.
• Finally, a new aft-facing cockpit seat to starboard, complete with a folding armrest and drink holder, paired with a new salon door to port with a bi-fold window to starboard.
• Lastly, a reconfigured head with expanded medicine cabinet, large over-sink mirror, and redesigned shower stall.
