1972 Grand Banks 42 ClassicSold

The warmth and quiet nature of a wood boat is unmistakeable. The quality of a Grand Banks is similarly unmistakeable. This boat will not disappoint. This 42 is well appointed and ready to cruise today. She is kept undercover in the fresh waters of Portland, Oregon and the extra care and expense is evident. The engine room is very clean and tidy, evidence of maintenance in the engine room is every where you look. The fuel tanks have had inspection ports cut into them and have been attended to over the years. (And they are full!). New custom mattress in forward stateroom ($2000,00) also new mattresses in aft. Robin Hood is a beautiful example of a classic Grand Banks 42. Are you ready to begin your cruising lifestyle? Robin Hood is ready to take you there!

There was a survey performed in 2021, the following is quoted directly from that survey.

Ten wood screws were removed for inspection by Patrick Mahon. They were removed from the waterline and garboard plank areas, fore and aft on both sides; a mid-underbody screw was also removed from a butt block. In general they were all found in serviceable condition; no refastening is needed at this time. Four garboard plank fastenings were found in good solid condition, size 10 x 2 1⁄2". Waterline fastenings (12 x 2 1⁄2") had some electrolysis activity on them, but they are serviceable. Two waterline screws broke off when being removed, but close inspection showed that the hard wood chine timber had a very tight grip on the inter half of the screws. Pressure on the brace tool caused them to twist off. Holes were properly closed off. Other chine screws proved too tight to remove without breakage. Butt block screw 10 x 1 1⁄2" on port underbody was found in good condition. Two waterline screws at stem were found in good condition.
