2020 Photo Contest winner © Back Cove Yachts

Thank you to all of our owners who submitted to our 2020 Photo Contest! The winning photo (featured above) was chosen by Back Cove's Production Manager, Rob Lord, who had the following to say about his choice:

"All of the photo submissions were great, and it was exciting that we got so many responses. Being so familiar with Back Cove's models and having so many pictures to choose from, this one stood out to me for a couple of reasons. First, the Back Cove 29 is our first model, and I have very fond memories of building them. I was likely the carpenter on that 29! Second, and more importantly, this picture personifies the families that enjoy our boats over many generations. In this picture, the young gentlemen represent the responsibility we have to make our boats safe and seaworthy. Our boats are for whole families to enjoy time on the water, assured that they are safe in doing so. It's something our entire team takes seriously - the responsibility we always have to do things right, every time, with no exceptions. - Rob"

I hope you all take a moment to watch the video compilation of all our submissions (below) because they are a truly beautiful window to our community and the joys of boating.

Best Always,
Jamie L.B. Governale
