This vessel is boarded from the port or starboard quarter through varnished teak caprail that hinges open to allow passage. There is similar boarding from the transom. The full walk around decks are teak.

Two doors (one to port, one at the helm station) allow access to the main cabin. The main cabin is laid out with the helm station forward and to starboard. The galley is located forward and to port. The salon composes the aft portion of the main cabin with a settee to starboard and additional built in seating to port. Large clear glass windows let in natural light.

The galley is configured with teak drawers and cabinetry, white countertops, a stainless steel sink, an under-counter refrigerator, and a four burner Princess propane range and oven. An under-counter freezer is located adjacent to built in seating just aft of the galley and a microwave just forward of the galley. A thoughtful hinge-out cabinet for holding trash is located across from the galley, which frees up valuable under-counter space.

The helm station is laid out with a bench seat and traditional wooden spoked wheel. Visibility is excellent and all controls and navigation electronics are within easy reach.

The saloon is laid out with an L-shaped settee to starboard and additional seating to starboard. The settee converts into a double berth, if desired.

The aft cabin is configured as a master cabin with a double berth with upgraded Tempur-Pedic mattress to starboard and a single berth to port. A large walk-in closet is located forward to port and the ensuite head compartment lies forward to starboard. The head compartment has a roomy shower separated from the main head. The aft cabin has its own separate entry to the aft deck / cockpit area.

The forward cabin is arranged in a V-berth with a hanging locker for storage. A beautiful custom mahogany deck hatch overhead provides light, ventilation, and charm. The forward cabin includes the vessel's second head compartment with marine toilet, wash basin, and shower.

Steps lead from the port side deck to the flybridge and second helm station. The flybridge is configured with built-in and free-standing seating. A canvas bimini provides shade and matching canvas skirts the railing surrounding the flybridge.

A custom set of snap on exterior window covers are stored under the master berth in the aft cabin.

Broker's Comments

This Grand Banks 42 Classic is truly Bristol. Boathouse kept. The seller was the owner of a marine engine service business for many years, and this iconic trawler has the appearance of exceptional care and attention inside and out cosmetically and mechanically. The exterior varnished teak shines and the raw teak decks look superb.

As equipped this boat is well configured for weekend or extended cruising. Fantastic interior layout with two cabins and two heads. The layout and seating arrangement in the main cabin is well laid out for entertaining.

Propulsion is provided by two Lehman SP135s. The engine room has been exceedingly well sound proofed for quiet operation.

Numerous thoughtful upgrades and equipment replacements have been made by the seller, which mean that there is nothing obvious to me that needs to be done prior to enjoying this Grand Banks 42. See the full listing for a list of upgrades and newer equipment.

If desired, the boathouse is also for sale (to be purchased separately).
