- If you have a large CENTER CONSOLE boat and want SPEED, LUXURY & STYLE with WEATHER PROTECTION and ACCOMODATION then this Back Cove 390 could be the boat for you.
Made in the USA up in Maine this Down East style boat will give you this classic looks but she'll also provide you with the high cruising speeds that you are already use to with your previous boat.
When I first saw the drawings of this model I didn't understand why Back Cove who are known for their inboard diesel shaft drive boats was doing this but now I totally understand the reasons. If you are use to high cruising speeds then why would you want to slow down for shaft drive boats? This solution with the V12's looks amazing but also functions incredibly well for so many reasons.
This is American Manufacturing at it's best and generations of boating knowledge thats going into a very cool yet practical boat that will last for generations if thats what you want.
This is the kind of boat that if you wanted to keep it and hand it down to your grandkids you could do that.
If you're looking for high speed and to expand your area of operations on your weekends then this is a boat that will do that for you.
Enjoy,
Dan Jones

Dan always gave the best reviews on boats 👍
Thanks.. I appreciate that
These a beautiful boats. Back Cove, Sabre, just fantastic.
Agreed. These are boats you could keep for a lifetime if you chose.
Welcome to my back yard on the CT River. I spend most of my Summers driving my boat starting an hour North of where you filmed this all the way to the Ocean. I trailer my boat so I get to experience all the lakes and rivers New England has to offer. I hope you come back again to experience more of what this location has to offer along with it's stunning beauty both on the water and off the water.
You are Awesome Dan! Thank you for reviewing the 39o. The transom is so clean with the V12 hanging off the back. Just love that boat -from a loyal Back Cove and Sabre Fan! Enjoy the US, Dan. Appreciate all your reviews and if you have more time in the US, you should definitely check out the modern and well connected Sabre 43.
No worries and thanks for the nice comment. I agree the V12's look so great on this boat it's actually a perfect match. I'm trying to get on a 43 here in the US but if it doesn't happen I will be getting that opportunity in Sydney so we will head out into some big ocean with it.
Nice review . Petzolds is a family business and the Connecticut River is beautiful.
They have a really great set up. I met a few of the guys from Petzolds and got the impression this is a very good operation they are running.
Glad your here in America! Some boats I know you will love! Pursuit 445 offshore, intrepid477 evolution, scout 53 lxf, Valhalla 55 and the Everglades 455 largest deadrise 25! And last Formula 50 scc, promise you will love all of these!
Thanks for this! I drove a Scout 42 on the wekeend and have already tested the Valhalla 41 in Sydney so yes both very interesting. I've seen a lot of Pursuit boats around Miami/Ft Lauderdale where I am now and i'll keep an eye peeled for all the others which you you are correct in assuming would interest me. Very much so!
@@BoatLife_DansBoatLife awesome, I really hope you get to see them! Great channel, I’m sure the Everglades 455 with the crazy 45 degree deadrise is in that area for sure and the other two should be, good luck
Voltage= Current X Resistance. Half the volts means twice the current. Twice the current means twice the copper to keep the voltage drops the same.
I’m glad your still here in the US Dan. Nice tour. Safe travels.
Thankyou! Loving my time here
Dan, you are definitely swimming in the deep end of the pool. Such gorgeous boats...
She's a stunner this one! Thanks Jack
Great review (as usual) maybe to improve pack a decent flag. Great boat for Perth because there is nowhere to go. You just go out and come back. I don't like inboards too many holes in the hull to leak. Aussie classification, how many beer cans can be stored on board. That fridge under the helm, get a few cartons in there.
Oh I was happy with that flag Pete haha! You have space for multiple slabs in that storage lazarette under the floow and I reckon a whole slab would pack into the fridge/freezer below allowing you to re-stock the top fridges and the under seak eski on the aft deck so nobody will be going thirsty on this boat.
I am so happy/excited for my Back Cove 29 but the new ones are def motivation to get out there and try to make some more money. So amazing.
I can appreciate both shaft diesels and outboards. It’s just when you get used to the extra speed it’s hard to go back
@@BoatLife_DansBoatLife I can imagine. I also like that the outboards have a shallower draft (it is very shallow in eastern NC).
Love this boat. Hope you're having a great time in the US👍
Having an amazing time thanks! You guys have so many different waterways here I'm going to need to come back and explore more.
Great river / loop vessal!
Lovely boat. Well presented as always. Enjoy New England.
New England is such a beautiful place. It reminds me of Sweden and a little bit of New Zealand. I love how everyone has a boat or knows someone with a boat!
Very nice review of a simply gorgeous boat.
She's a real good looker hey. I also like the grey hull colour, it's very smart. Thanks!
Welcome to New England I hope you get some time in Massachusetts and get to experience Buzzards Bay and all it has to offer.
I think I missed Buzzards Bay but I think next year I need to come back with a motor home and explore the East Coast a lot more. You have so many more waterways then we do it's super interesting to see all the different boats and activity going on here from pleasure boats to industry and the Navy doing their thing. I'm very keen to get back here and film more of this.
Really enjoy your channel. I know you tend to review bigger boats worth big $$ but it would nice show a few bow riders for middle class families especially since they are now $150k AUD. Not that cheap imo anymore. Loved the Sydney boat show chat about deals and value buys.
Absolutely I can. I've got heaps of experience with the smaller boats so happy to film more. I just keep getting asked to do the bigger and faster stuff so haven't had as many opportunities to film boats for the mass market yet. I'll try to make this happen at some point.
I can't believe it! You're 15 miles from my house!!
haha awesome! Cool area i enjoyed visiting!
How would diesel outboards do as far as fuel consumption and reliability? Might be a nice option.
Those v12s are pigs on fuel but they run on 87 octane which is nice. Gorgeous boat with an incredible layout
I heard they arent so bad because they have a transmission where other outboards do not.
Don’t see fuel for the v12s but the triple 400s are 415 litres per hour at full noise. Just crazy
So I didn't have full instrumentation available to read that out for you but he way I see it is as follows. A) don't compare with diesel shafts because yes they will be much more B) I think the idea is for the busy guys who want to do 20 - 50M runs at a healthy speed to maximise their time enjoying a location.
If you are doing long distance cruising then this is not the boat for you. But for high speed mid distance day boating and long weekends this is a super valuable asset to a lot of people I think.
Also not having to lift the thing for engine service will be beneficial to a lot of people and yes I agree this design is simply beautiful and it won't go out of fashion.
So yes you can see the REV's on the motor go down when the gear changes and the motor is doing less work. It's very interesting technology and I trust Mercury to get this right. I remember after the crash in 08 they were the only manufacturer who doubled down on research and technology spending and I think we are benefiting from that investment now.
They are actually quite fuel efficient (considering their size) due to the use of oxygen sensors. The engine itself is a cool idea and designed to push the larger boats around, but the difficulty to gain access for troubleshooting/maintenance is the major pitfall of these engines. I think with all their innovation, Mercury Marine could have done a much better job in that department. A small hood that flips up to expose an oil filter is a marketing gimmick. Mercury needs to do a better job than making engine cowlings that need to be removed with a forklift, as this is just not a practical way to do things. Mercury Marine could learn a lot from Yamaha in making their products more maintenance friendly.
Great tour.
Can you fit sunbathing cushions on the front area?
Check with your dealer on that as I can’t remember
Dan! How did you like Connecticut? I saw the first 10 seconds of the video and almost fell out off my couch lol - welcome!
I had a great time! We did two firsts for me. Found a real American steak place for dinner one night which was fun and also found a great sandwich shop up the road from the dealership which was the full cultural American experience for me. The houses and the scenery are very beautiful with all the green trees around Portland which I enjoyed a lot!
Great boat and review, so what does this boat sell for with tested options... no one is giving out pricing info on this boat.
So it's different in all the regions so best to follow the links in my description and check with your nearest dealer.
The use of 110v power requires thicker cabling than 240v power. What we want from the supply is the equivalent energy in watts. Since watts is created from voltage x amperage and we have half the voltage in 110v, the amperage for equivalent power or watts needs to be double. Because we have to transport more power along the wiring, that wiring needs to increase in thickness. So to light up say a microwave oven with 2880 watts on 240v we need 14 gauge wire. To transport the same energy on 110v supply, we need thicker and heavier 10 gauge wire. This is why overhead power cables out in your street can carry many thousands of volts on what appears to be thinner cable.
Probably important to say wire thickness of increasing gauge has a lesser number.
So, they are thicker in America than they are in Australia??
@@salty-pete theyre thicker wherever you are using 110v, so yes
Thanks! This is what I love about this community. I knew there would be someone smarter than me who could explain that. Cheers!!
About 4 times thicker Pete.
The privacy curtain on the aft cabin doesnt work too well when you can see right through the stairs!
I recalled seeing the curtain shape being designed to fill in the area behind the stairs but if anyone reading this can check my memory to clarify please comment as I can't remember 100%.
Did we mention top speed for those of us who like speed with the family comfort? Ok let the family be uncomfortable for 15 minutes as we give full throttle. What does she top out at?
So I cover that in the test drive video which will post on Sunday but she's a 50MPH+ boat!
Nice! Thats what we're talkin' about!
i like watching this sort of video, and Boatlife is a good review to watch (most times) although the bloke tends to dribble on about sh*t sometime, just get on with the review......................
lol... thanks... i think
Really like your videos, but please take this a constructive criticism. The camera work is poor in relation to your descriptions. The viewer needs to see what exactly you're looking at, I think production value would be better if you held the camera, instead of being on camera. It's frustrating to hear your description of features and not actually see them. "We will have to cut to a shot of that"...rarely happens. Thanks for reading, just trying to help.
Point taken. At this point in time I don't have a cameraman or crew which is why you see me directing the camera as i'm presenting to you guys. When I say i'm going to cut to a shot it's because I can see the cameraman isn't capturing it while i'm talking and I go and film it at the end of the presentation. What often happens however is we run out of time for whatever reason and I'm not always able to get the final shots after i've finished presenting. I know you guys are here to see the boat and not me so maybe i'll just grab the camera off whoever is filming and show you that way in future.
Its concerning to see a complete disregard for the effect that the wash from the high speed has on the river banks.
20-30 miles travelled in 1/2hr? It needs to be a very powerful hydrofoil to perform like that.
So it would actually make annoying wash at more of a mid range speed which is why you saw me accelerate up to higher speeds because the wash flattens out at the higher speeds. But yes at times during the making of my videos there is going to be some negative impacts to the environment. I do try to minimise this but it's literally impossible to eliminate it all together unfortunately.
What a total waste of gasoline. What next another two outboards on the stern so that it can fly....?
Are you wearing leggings???
Beautiful boat but 1.4 million. Nuts
Inflation hey... To be fair this is what similar boats costs these days and with a Back Cove this boat could last generations if you wanted to hold onto it
