Good friends of ours have one of the original Back Cove 29's. I helped with the commission, brought the boat up the Chesapeake Bay from Virginia Beach to Annapolis in strong headwinds and lumpy seas and my impression is of a very sturdy, sea-kindly, dry and nicely built craft. Single diesel with a bow-thruster keeps things simple and cheap. On the 29 the accommodations are fine for short distance cruising and over-nights. For two...
They were down last weekend and are giving some thought to moving up to the Back Cove 37.
