Off Center Harbor's Remarks

Webbers Cove was a pioneer in building fiberglass power cruisers and lobster boats, and the 34 footers were, and still are, highly regarded. This listing appears to have many of the extras that make for a good boat: rebuilt Perkins diesel, sturdy flying bridge, power windlass, full suite of electronics, rebuilt house top and general refurbishment. And the list goes on from here making this boat worth looking into further.

Description from Boat's Main Listing

RASCAL is an exceptionally well-kept classic Webbers Cove 34 Flybridge Cruiser. Rascal was part of Webbers Cove’s pioneering movement from the standard wooden hull into the production fiberglass realm during the mid 1960’s. This Webbers Cove 34 Flybridge is currently setup for cruising and extended daytrips, but has multipurpose capabilities. Rascal also makes for a great commercial fishing, diving, race committee, tourism, commuter and countless other vessel types with its extended transom and ergonomic cabin space. With a major refit in 2002, Rascal is beyond structurally sound throughout. The 1990 Perkins engine was also rebuilt in 2007 and runs effortlessly. Rascal is a rare build in that it has all of the alluring aesthetic features of a classic downeast style fishing boat while still reaping all the benefits of modern era fiberglass construction.

Come visit RASCAL located just 10 minutes off I-95 at Stonington on The River in Pawcatuck, CT.
