While all of the Grand Banks Eastbay 49's have always been popular, "Amyleasa" is an ESPECIALLY FINE example of the more rare and desirable Salon Express (SX) model with the factory hard-back salon enclosure vs the soft enclosure found on the Hardtop Express (HX). Even more rare and sought-after is the fact that she has the side door leading to the side decks at the helm- a feature that most cruising couples consider a "must-have" on any "DownEast" style cruising yacht. She is powered by the much preferred Caterpillar C12 engine package with 2060 hours, and services are up to date. Additionally, "Amyleasa" has an AWLGRIP painted hull, and has recently received numerous key upgrades over the years. With over $200,000 being spent in 2023-2024 alone, she is in excellent condition. Some of the more recent upgrades include:
-All new house and cranking AGM batteries (2021)
-New Blue Sea battery charger (2021)
-Starlink bracket installed in KVH dome (2023)
-New Computank head unit (2020)

Overview
The Grand Banks Eastbay 49' is arguably the finest and one of the most beautiful yachts to come from the boards of C. Raymond Hunt and Associates. Her design has defined the modern downeast cruiser, with most other builders trying to emulate the yacht since her introduction. Graceful sheer and moderate bow flare are reminiscent of Maine lobster boats, while her modified deep-V hull with computer designed lifting strakes are at the forefront of modern underbody design. Her twin 705 hp Caterpillar C12s engines (only 2060 original hours and services up to date) provide ample, reliable power and speed, and she cruises easily at 25 knots. The interior accommodations are well designed and provide a bright and airy ambiance. The galley like other living spaces is efficient with ample storage and top of the line appliances. Flawless joinery and elegant upholstery throughout have been refreshed and well maintained, and the vessel is professionally cleaned and managed. "Amyleasa"" is modern, fast, dry, stable, and beautifully detailed, as one would expect in a Grand Banks yacht. This boat is in turn-key condition and will readily appeal to a discerning yachtsman. If you wish to cruise in luxury and turn heads in every harbor, "Amyleasa" should be at the top of your list!
