This 1978 Grand Banks 42 is a classic fiberglass trawler powered by twin Lehman diesel engines producing 240 horsepower combined. The boat measures 42 feet in length with a 13.6-foot beam and features a traditional design that has stood the test of time. Recent major upgrades include new teak decking on the main and side decks, aluminum fuel tanks, poly water tanks, and a 400-amp-hour lithium battery bank with a 3000-watt Xantrex inverter. A 2010 Onan 6-kilowatt generator with approximately 2,500 hours of use provides additional power for extended cruising or liveaboard use.
The interior retains the characteristic warm teak throughout, including salon doors reconstructed from solid teak in 2022. The boat sleeps multiple guests across two cabins and includes two heads. Climate control has been updated with two new air conditioning units installed in 2024.
Recent maintenance includes a starboard transmission rebuild in 2019, new bottom paint, compound, buff, and wax work completed in March 2024. The boat comes equipped with a 9-foot Dyer Dhow tender featuring a sailing rig and Honda outboard motor, as well as a staysail. Comprehensive service records, including oil sample history and ship's log, are available.
