Accommodations
Grand Banks is well known for their superbly crafted full varnished teak interiors and this yacht is no exception. She has the preferred solid teak parquet soles and is the preferred two stateroom, two head galley up layout.
There is an abundance of natural light and ventilation courtesy of the salon/helm deck that is fully surrounded by large windows, several of which are sliders with screens. Forward there are smaller slider type windows in the trunk cabin in each stateroom and head as well as overhead hatches. Artificial light is also superb with brass swivel style reading lamps at each berth and settee as well as several overhead lights throughout. When natural ventialtion is not enough, cooling is provided via three reverse cylcle (they also can provide heat) air conditioning units.
MASTER STATEROOM & HEAD
Starting forward is the Master Stateroom featuring an island queen berth below. There is storage in a full sized chart drawer and four cargo drawers. There is additional storage in lockers outboard, a five drawer bureau and cedar lined hanging locker with light. A 15" TV is in a cabinet aft and to starboard followed by the separate shower comparment while opposite to port is the private head featuring Vacuflush W.C. and a generous vanity with ample storage.
GUEST STATEROOM
Next aft and to port is the Guest Stateroom which features two thwartship running 6'-6" berths below. There is storage in drawers while hanging storage is outboard between the berths in a cedar lined hanging locker with light.

Refrigerated storage is in two boxes with Grunert 12V refrigeration with small freezer compartments. The yacht was ordered with the optional overhead dish lockers.
LOWER HELM STATION
Opposite to port is the Lower Helm Station with double helm seat, full navigational and engine controls and the yachts electrical distribution panels. Adjacent to the helm is a side door for quick access to the starboard decks.
SALON & DINETTE
Aft is the full width salon that opens out onto the aft deck via two wide double doors, to port is the dining settee, an L-shaped arrangement and teak drop leaf table on a high low pneumatic assist.
