Pristine, one-owner downeast style cruiser with low hours,
bow and stern thrusters, autopilot and hull repainted this season!
GRATEFUL is the essence of today’s popular downeast style cruiser. Sleek, elegant and efficient, she is one of a new breed of single-engine, Maine-built boats designed by Back Cove, a division of Sabre Yachts.
With her navy hull, striped transom seating and striking cherry cabinetry, she turns heads wherever she goes. Her bow and stern thrusters make her incredibly easy to maneuver in tight places and her single diesel delivers remarkable fuel efficiency. She cruises at 18-20 knots, sipping fuel at less than 12 gallons per hour.
Since being built in 2008, she has been meticulously maintained by her original owners, who have owned many boats. They were intimately involved in the design, customization and production of GRATEFUL and were on hand in Rockland, Maine, when her hull (#36) was poured. GRATEFUL has been used exclusively in New England waters, cared for by experts and shed stored most off seasons.

With 6’5” of head room below deck and lots of hatches for light, GRATEFUL lives like a much larger yacht. Forward are extra-large vee berths with a spacious settee to port for flexible sleeping arrangements. On the starboard side, there is a large cedar-lined hanging locker, gleaming cherry bulkhead and a roomy head with a separate shower stall, a feature rarely found in a 33 footer. Teak and holly flooring and a custom sisal carpet complete the look.
