Eldred Cooper 30 Downeast 2008

**Exciting New Listing! Stay tuned for more updates in the coming days!** If you're in the market for a classic downeast-style boat without the complications of maintaining an antique, your search stops here. This stunning vessel was initiated in 2005 and launched in 2008 by the esteemed Eldred-Cooper Boatworks in Massachusetts, with a build cost nearing $300,000! Custom-built with a luxurious finish, she draws inspiration from early 1900s workboats crafted by the builder's family, integrating a Herreshoff-style cabin and deck with modern power, finishes, and materials. Constructed using an epoxied plank-on-frame method, this beauty features a combination of white oak, mahogany, juniper, and teak trim. She has primarily been enjoyed as a picnic boat, sailing lightly around the picturesque waters of Martha's Vineyard and New England. Currently docked on a freshwater creek near Mobile Bay in Alabama, she comes with a custom aluminum trailer for winter storage. A bimini top (currently in storage and needing new canvas) is included, along with all necessary safety equipment. Powering this vessel is a low-hour 4-cylinder Yammer turbodiesel engine, efficient at approximately 1 GPH during slow cruising and 4.5 GPH at a brisk 13 knots. This winter, the engine and transmission were removed for a thorough repaint, inspection, and replacement of the water pump and any worn parts, ensuring she runs perfectly. The hull has also been inspected, and anti-fouling measures have been reapplied—no soft spots or rot anywhere on the boat! While the captain’s chair and rear seats are currently in storage, they are part of the sale, along with a new seat cushion being created for the cockpit that snaps over the engine box. Additionally, she features a Sony stereo system with cockpit speakers, a Garmin GPS, and a teak swim platform with a swim ladder added just two years ago. Included with the sale is a recent survey completed on June 25. You can view a christening video in the media section of the listing and a lovely presentation from when the boat was on the market a few years back on YouTube. This captivating boat is sure to turn heads wherever she goes, and you won’t find a more beautiful vessel available. Priced to sell quickly due to the owner's plans to upgrade!
