1988 Crosby Yacht Crosby Striper This Crosby Striper is in excellent condition. She has enjoyed professional care and looks beautiful cosmetically and in all appearance. Although her Chrysler LM 318 gasoline engine is original, it has been well maintained and it is reported that it runs well and smooth. Currently available here at our Yard in Osterville for inspection; this is indeed how a modern classic should look.
Most Downeast boats have bow thrusters to assist the single engine in close quarter maneuvering, and that combination is well proven and simple. [links]
What is appealing about the Downeast style is the elegantly simple profile, and large cockpit that flows into a cabin and forward accommodations. The boats are comfortable going fast in the ocean, stable due to hull shape and keel, yet they work just as well running slowly as a cocktail cruiser around a quiet backwater. They can go fishing and cruising, and fit the boating needs of many people who tire of the work of sailing or the high maintenance of a large motoryacht. more
Some Downeast boats have a single diesel to cruise at 15-20 knots. Other models come with twin engines for even higher performance, such as the Eastbay, MJM, and Sabre. [links]
There are many builders of the Downeast style boat, and each year we see more of these boats come from international builders. Grand Banks Eastbay, Sabre, Back Cove, Vicem, MJM, Little Harbor, Hinckley, Legacy, and Hunt are just a few of the brands that fit this category. [links]

And they just look right. While some of these boats are built with flybridges, they don’t always work for the hull shape and can be uncomfortable when turning at the higher speeds some of these are capable of. here
