Jarvis Newman Flybridge Downeast - She is a beautiful new listing

1978 Jarvis Newman 36 Flybridge Downeast

"Rachel B" is a fabulous classic fiberglass vessel which has true downeast roots and styling.  Over the years she has received many upgrades including a 350hp Yanmar diesel a 5kw generator and new dark green paint. 

"Rachel B" was built by Jarvis Newman, the third Maine builder of wooden lobster boats to make the switch to fiberglass construction (1971). Newman's boats were initially built as work boats, and so he realized that if the commercial guys had confidence in his hulls, then so would yachtsmen.

In the early 90s, this Newman made the transformation from work to pleasure with a complete new interior and superstructure. Mac Pettigrew, another lobster boat bulder says "The Newman 36 is the most comfortable small fiberglass boat on the market."

As with all boats, the detail makes the difference and "Rachel B" has not only a practical layout, sheerline that is a knock-out and cabin design that is not only sensible but with a very well appointed interior. With her day head in the saloon, she makes a comfortable stay for 2 couples and an ideal cruising couple's Downeaster. She has green Awlgrip paint, a 350 Yanmar and a 6 KW Northern Lights Generator to compliment her restored interior.
