This 1999 Grand Banks 38 Eastbay HX is a fiberglass downeast cruiser powered by twin Caterpillar 3208 TA diesel engines producing 375 horsepower each. The boat reaches a maximum speed of 29 knots and cruises comfortably at 23 knots, delivering the reliable performance the Eastbay series is known for. The classic design combines traditional hull lines with a 38-foot length and 13-foot beam, offering a proven platform for coastal cruising.
Below decks, the accommodations center on a warm interior finished in teak joinery. The galley features Corian countertops, a double sink, refrigerator, separate freezer, three-burner gas cooktop, and convection microwave, with generous overhead storage. A wraparound settee opposite the galley converts into an additional berth when needed.
The forward stateroom provides approximately 6 feet 6 inches of headroom at the centerline with an overhead hatch for natural light and ventilation. The berth includes a removable filler cushion for flexible use. A full head with shower, toilet, and sink completes the layout.
Both main engines have undergone major component replacement and servicing in recent years, providing a solid mechanical foundation. The helm offers a straightforward control layout with autopilot, throttle synchronizer, and Bennett Auto Tab Control system for comfortable cruising.
