The stunning Grand Banks 60 is the most efficient cruiser in its class, with a ride that easily surpasses any yacht of its size on the water today. This beautiful, completely redesigned yacht pays homage to classic Grand Banks styling, with a special focus on performance and fuel consumption. Featuring wide-open entertaining areas, supremely comfortable furnishings and three staterooms, this true ocean-going long-range cruiser is ideal for passage making and can easily be handled by two people. The Grand Banks 60 can reach speeds up to 36 knots, has a range of more than 2,500 nautical miles at 10 knots, and uses an unbelievably efficient 29 gal/hr of fuel 20 knots. We believe we have created the most stable 60-foot monohull flybridge in the world, which performs confidently in even the roughest seas and will take you anywhere you want to go. The Grand Banks 60 is our foray into a new standard of fully infused carbon fiber construction, which results in a low center of gravity, inherent form stability at all speeds, and multiple advantages in strength, rigidity, weight and performance. here

This vison of beauty and perfection is a computer-rendered illustration of the yacht that will soon rewrite the rules of long-distance cruising. Thanks to the super-sleek lines of its V-Warp hull, the GB85 won’t so much as ‘hit the water’ as slide effortlessly into it at the end of the year. And while its maiden voyage will leave a surprisingly flat and shallow wake, we anticipate the yacht’s progress will be followed by a tsunami of interest, commentary and debate in the marine press and among the boating community. Why? The GB85 is not just a bigger Grand Banks. It’s a whole new class of boat. Technically, at just over 87 feet, the 85 has inched into the ‘Superyacht’ category. But as well as breaking this class barrier, our exquisite new vessel is set to break every record for performance, efficiency and range in any category you care to mention. On the GB85, space is not at a premium, it’s a luxury. The extended length and 22ft beam of this yacht enable us to offer the widest range of internal configurations and amenities for all on board – guests and crew. For long distance cruising, the ’85 offers a rare combination of sociability and privacy. here

Grand Banks has been building classic cruisers for more than 60 years, and in that time we’ve learned a thing or two about crafting the ideal cruiser. The Eastbay 44 is the sleek, modernized evolution of our classic downeast line, which has everything you need—and nothing you don’t. Clean, classic lines are accentuated by the beautiful teak interior and impeccable craftsmanship of the three-stateroom layout. Overnight accommodations for 6 people and entertaining space for more make the EB44 the ideal family cruiser. The wide, full-beam salon and cockpit feature large electric windows that invite in cool summer breezes, and a traditional deep-v hull achieves a fast, smooth and dry ride that also allows for tight maneuverability, making docking a dream. here

Grand Banks continues its bold foray into redefining the future of efficient long-range cruising with the release of the Grand Banks 54, the second addition to the new Grand Banks family series. This beautifully designed luxury yacht comes in both flybridge and enclosed skylounge configurations, with either upper or lower galley layout options that accommodate four to five people overnight. The GB54 has a highly efficient cruise speed of 25 knots, with a fuel burn of 57 gal, making her a true performer. The focus of the Grand Banks 54 was to produce a yacht that is incredibly practical, and easily handled by owner/operators even if caught short-handed. Making full use of the 17′ 6″ beam, the cockpit and salon areas are wide open, airy and perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. Our signature large electric windows side and aft of the salon open the spaces further to fresh breezes and near 360 degree sight lines throughout the boat. We have designed the layouts of the yacht to offer flexibility without compromising practicality or usability. Available in your choice of two or three stateroom layouts, the accommodations are only a few steps down from the single-level entertaining spaces, making manoeuvring around the vessel effortless.

One of the early fiberglass 32s, this one has been lovingly cared for and kept in fresh water by her current owner for over two decades.

1987 CHB 42 Aft Cabin Trawler CHB Trawlers were built and branded under a half dozen or more names and are ubiquitous on the used boat market. This CHB 42 design has been popular because of its spaciousness and versatility. What makes this a special boat and one you want to buy are price and condition! The seller reports he has invested over $250,000 in this boat. Since 2006 he has restored, repaired, re-powered, upgraded and improved the boat constantly, continuing to add new navigational equipment as recently as this fall. It's large enough to be used comfortably as a live-aboard yet with a single recently-installed modern engine it's efficient and affordable to operate yielding 1.5 gallons per hour on a 2011 Alaska trip. The bottom on this vessel has been peeled and epoxy coated creating a smooth surface today. Similar brands include C&L Trawlers, Puget Trawlers, and Ponderosa. And she even compares well to a Grand Banks for space and amenities, at a much lower cost. It is also a new enough version to not be heavily loaded with exterior teak. Taking into account condition, equipment and recent upgrades this boat is an extraordinary value!These boat details are subject to contract.Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.

This DeFever designed, Pilot House trawler, is in absolutely pristine condition. Built in 1970 by American Marine (Grand Banks).. It has been fully refurbished, completely upgraded and superbly maintained. It is presently kept under cover. (Covered moorage is available with this boat). Only a handful of these lovely Alaskans 46's remain. Of those that do, few are in such fine condition as this one. And even fewer are so well equipped. In the end, perhaps none has been refurbished so completely, with such attention to detail and with no expenses spared. It would be impossible to replicate this lovely yacht today. Craftsmen capable of building such a trawler would be hard to find and too expensive. Simply restoring this boat to her original condition has cost more than twice the asking price here. If you've ever wanted a wooden trawler by a great designer, built in an outstanding shipyard, in better than new condition.

Known as the home-port for the popular cruising destination San Juan Islands, Anacortes has quickly become one of the major boating areas in Washington. Cruising on your yacht around Anacortes brings you away for the boating spots packed with tourists and offers some exceptional destinations. The San Juan Islands are certainly well-known for their beauty, but Cypress Island, Friday Harbour, and Washington Park can also provide a great day on the water with some exceptional views, hiking, and even shopping. While cruising, be on the look out for seals, orcas, whalers, and other marine life!
