Manufacturer Description

The Grand Banks 42 Motoryacht has been decades in the making. The original Ken Smith design has been amended and updated with the practical input of her owners. The experience gained since the laying of the first GB 42 keel in 1966 is reflected in each one commissioned today. Her practical layout, sturdy fiberglass construction, deep water design, and long range capability all add up to a complete cruising boat. The Grand Banks semidisplacement hull design, with a fine entry forward, hard chines aft, and a full keel has been proven on waters around the world. The exterior of the hull and deckhouse on the GB 42 is smooth gelcoated fiberglass. Teak decking is laid over the fiberglass on the main deck and flybridge. The bulwarks surrounding the wide main deck are capped with a sturdy teak safety rail providing safe movement from bow to stern for those on board. The Grand Banks 42: In production since the 60s, her hull was redesigned in the early 90s giving the proven Grand Banks semi-displacement hull a longer waterline and an increased beam. Ideal for a couple with children or guests, she cruises economically at 9 knots. The Motoryacht provides increased living space with a spacious, full-width stateroom aft, and two additional staterooms forward. The aft sundeck expands the outdoor living area and provides room for stowage.

Cons

Age-Related Maintenance: Being a 1985 model, it may require more maintenance and updates compared to newer vessels. Components such as electronics and machinery might need upgrading.

Less Speed: While it is designed for efficiency, the Grand Banks 42 is not the fastest boat, which may be a downside for those looking to cover distances quickly.

Limited Storage Space: While the interior is spacious, some owners find storage may be limited for extended cruising needs, depending on the layout.

Handling in Rough Seas: Despite its sturdy construction, the boat’s design as a trawler makes it less capable in harsh conditions compared to sportier, more modern motor yachts.
