The twin engine Grand Banks 36 trawler is the embodiment of the phrase "proper yacht." Viewed from afar, it has the classic cabin-forward lines of a design born for long hauls and open waters. The hull design is renowned for its economical, sea kindly operation." John Wooldridge for Soundings.
The Grand Banks 36 Classic is a highly regarded aft-cabin trawler that enjoys an unmatched reputation for beauty, comfort and seaworthiness. "Grande Finale" is a well-maintained 36' Grand Banks Classic, having been stored in a covered slip most of her life. The beautiful varnished teak joiner work throughout and the varnished teak parquet cabin sole gives "Grande Finale" a luxurious, classically nautical feel. The interior is bright and airy thanks to the numerous windows (many of them sliding with screens) and hatches while lighting is provided by stylish brass swivel reading lamps at each berth and settee.
