Just launching: Back Cove 390

Back Cove

Oct 8, 2020

Don Finkle of RCR Yachts alerted us to an interesting boat coming soon.

 “As if the introduction of a second outboard model with a fully enclosed salon wasn’t enough, the Back Cove Design Team has just released renderings of the NEW Back Cove 39O with triple outboards!

“More details are soon to follow, but we are happy to confirm that the 39O will be available with double or triple installations from 850hp to 1200hp from Yamaha, Suzuki, and Mercury Marine.”

 The spacious owners’ cabin forward offers a queen-sized island berth and private access to the head and shower. For the crew, two single beds in the guest cabin are secluded, well proportioned, and comfortable.

Back Cove Interior

The new boat will have a 300 mile+ range at cruise, and a top-end speed of 37-knots with triple Suzuki 350 outboards. Optional power installations, currently being finalized, will provide top-end speeds in the 40+ knot range. The 39O hull design will feature Back Cove’s proprietary Trailing Edge Lifting Surface (TRELIS) *D* for optimal handling and performance.

Tooling work is already underway and the first Back Cove 39O will launch late summer of 2020. Her official debut will take place at the 2020 fall boat shows from Newport to Ft Lauderdale.

Here is a tour of the new boat:

The United States strategic plan for 1814 was to gain control of Lake Ontario, capture Burlington and York then retake Fort Niagara.  That didn’t happen. The intent on the Upper Lakes was to retake Michilimackinac and the destruction of the North West Company trading posts and the two brigs being built up the river at Matchedash. The British goal on the Upper Lakes to protect the fur trade, its supporting infrastructure and the Indian alliances remained unchanged throughout the War.

Trawler Fest Shines in Anacortes

The 2013 edition of Trawler Fest, presented by PassageMaker magazine, drew fans of trawlers and the power-cruising lifestyle to Anacortes, Washington for courses, seminars, social events and a boat show May 14-19. Part of the magazine’s series of trawler-oriented events, the fest takes full advantage of its scenic location at Cap Sante Marina and typically fine “banana belt” weather.

This year’s program included two days of courses aimed at trawler owners and purchasers, an expanded program of seminars and demonstrations, and the four-day boat show featuring more than 70 trawlers and passagemakers from a variety of builders, dealers and brokers in BC and Washington. Exhibitors

Pursuit S268 Sport CC

By Andy Adams

The Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console is a do-it-all kind of boat with a solid sense of style. Centre console designs have been developed for the southern blue water sport fishing enthusiasts (and this boat would raise fish with the best of them) but the Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console offers far more utility and enjoyment than just fishing.

Ron and Pat Reder started out in October 1984 across the road from where they are right now on the Bayfield River in Bayfield ON. The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
