The Grand Banks 42 Classic is easily the most successful trawler design ever produced. Although called a trawler the Grand Banks does not have a trawler hull - rather it rides on a semi-displacement hull with hard chines, a tall bow and a full keel that gives it a moderate 4'2" draft. This vessel has undergone many upgrades including new teak decks (glued not screwed) new tankage (water and fuel) , Awlgripped hull and superstructure, recent canvas, upgraded upholstery, new headliners, bow and stern thrusters, new plumbing and upgraded electronics. She is powered with the reliable and bullet proof Ford Lehman Diesels that have been properly maintained and have many hours of life remaining. This one truly looks much younger than her age and will make its next owner a proud Yachtsman. Recent bottom soda blasting to remove all old built up paint layers, new barrier coats and fresh bottom paint Summer 2025. Call today to set up a time to see this beauty..
