1972 Jarvis Newman Downeast

A 1972 Jarvis Newman downeast, this 36-foot fiberglass yacht combines classic lines with thoughtful modernization. The boat is powered by a 2015 Volvo-Penta 330 hp diesel engine with only 605 hours of service, paired with electronic engine controls. She cruises at 16 knots with a top speed of 20 knots.

Below deck, accommodations include a forward V-berth with Ultra-Suede coverings and storage, a galley fitted with hot and cold pressure water, 3/4-inch black slate countertops, and a 6.4 cubic foot refrigerator with keel cooler. The head features a separate shower stall, custom hanging locker, slate countertop, and stainless steel sink. Electronics have been upgraded with a Raymarine C140 chartplotter, Fusion digital stereo with Bluetooth, and an Icom IC-M45 VHF radio.

The cockpit provides ample space with a wooden swivel helm chair, companion seating, and four Adirondack chairs. A large bronze steering wheel, Sunbrella canvas curtains, and three opening windshields with wipers enhance usability. A Maxwell electric windlass handles a 35-pound CQR anchor. The boat carries dual 100-watt SunPower solar panels with Victron controls, an electric searchlight, and traditional bronze hardware throughout including cleats and a custom bow rail.

The hull received a professional Awlgrip white finish in 2023. Aluminum fuel tanks were installed in 2013, and water and waste systems comprise multiple HDPE tanks with level sensors. Safety equipment includes fire extinguishers, life jackets, and a throwable ring.
