First introduced in 2004, the Back Cove 26 is a graceful expression of classic Downeast style, crafted for coastal cruisers who value enduring quality. Offered in an open bass boat configuration or with a pipe-supported hard top, she was built for versatility and coastal cruising.

With diesel engine options ranging from 200 to 260 horsepower and a standard bow thruster, she delivers confident handling and a smooth ride at a 20-knot cruise. Her simple, elegant design and efficient layout made her a joy to operate—and a proud introduction to Back Cove’s commitment to craftsmanship.
