This 1980 Grand Banks 49 Classic is a fiberglass trawler built around the design principles that made the 49 one of the most durable and respected cruising yachts ever constructed. Twin Ford Lehman 2715E diesel engines deliver 240 horsepower combined and pair with a 9kW Northern Lights generator. The boat carries 1,000 gallons of fuel and incorporates a Wesmar bow thruster for docking assistance.
The three-stateroom interior follows the galley-up layout that Grand Banks pioneered, with an aft master and accommodations for extended cruising. Teak joinery and parquet flooring throughout reflect the builder's traditional craftsmanship. The salon opens to panoramic windows, while the galley offers substantial workspace. Two heads serve the accommodation. Onboard systems include dual-zone air conditioning, a washer/dryer combination, and an electric windlass with dual anchor pulpit.
The engine room is reported clean with solid fuel tanks. The generator has approximately 2,200 hours of service. The hull carries no teak decks, eliminating ongoing maintenance. Exterior cosmetics would benefit from restoration work, though the mechanical and structural fundamentals remain sound.
