Overview
About this vessel
New to Market March 2026
FREIDA is a lovely 2011 Back Cove 30 delivered new and ready to be enjoyed by her next owners. Awarded Boat of the Year by both Trade a Boat Magazine in Australia and Motorboating Magazine in the USA when she was launched.
Equipped with a Yanmar 6LY 380hp diesel with a shaft drive, she is whisper quiet, smooth and powerful and incredibly efficient, with effortless and highly economical cruise speeds in excess of 22 knots.
On her helm deck, FREIDA offers a unique design with seating for a half dozen guests. Raised seating for the mate and elevated seating on both the port and starboard settees will allow everyone to enjoy the view along the way. When at rest, the port settee and mate's seat convert conveniently to another L-settee. At night this settee will also convert to an additional berth. All of this seating surrounds an elegant inlaid table.
Her hull is a vee-style with downward turning chines forward. This allows the boat to get on plane easily, with very little bow rise. She is an exceptionally dry boat: secondary spray rails and a flared bow throw water down and away from the hull at speed to ensure a dry ride. Aft, the hull turns to a 16 degree deadrise and her single propeller runs in a shallow pocket to reduce draft and running angle.
A slight tumble home in her aft topside sections and her signature spoon-shaped bow add elegance to her profile. The reverse transom is handsome and practical adding useable space to her deep swim platform. Her transom door is flush mounted and opens outwards to allow for the largest possible cockpit sole.
The Back Cove 30's side decks are a study in safety and ergonomics. Sturdy hand rails are always within reach. Walking forward on this secure side deck you will notice a slight rise in the bulwark to prevent a foot from slipping overboard, while an aggressive diamond patterned anti-skid surface and extra high perimeter rails add to the a feeling of security. Forward, a deep anchor locker offers plenty of volume for storage of lines and fenders.
Like all Back Cove models, she includes an outstanding list of standard equipment and FREIDA has extensive factory options and updates as well.
FREIDA has just undergone a full service and antifouling and is ready for new owners to step aboard and enjoy today!
