2000 Grand Banks 52 Europa

This 2000 Grand Banks 52 Europa is a classic fiberglass trawler built for extended cruising and liveaboard comfort. Twin CAT 3208 diesel engines produce 435 horsepower each and have accumulated approximately 3,727 hours. The yacht spans 53.5 feet with a 15.4-foot beam, offering a substantial platform with a well-thought-out layout that balances indoor and outdoor living spaces.

The accommodations include a master stateroom with queen island berth, en suite head with separate shower, and two additional guest cabins. The forward VIP stateroom features a convertible V-berth, while the second guest cabin offers an oversized double berth athwartship. The main salon features teak parquet flooring and wraparound seating with storage beneath. A U-shaped galley to starboard includes custom cabinetry, stainless steel refrigerator and freezer, ice maker, and range with oven. The large covered aft deck provides comfortable outdoor entertaining space with a swim platform and transom door.

The flybridge spans the boat with an L-shaped settee to starboard, center helm station, and port seating, all shaded by a Sunbrella Bimini top. A hinged fiberglass mast accommodates low bridge passages. The lower helm station repeats the full complement of electronics.

Recent significant work includes new turbochargers on both engines and a 3,000-hour CAT M3 service in January 2026. New propellers have been aligned and balanced, cutlass bearings replaced, and fresh bottom paint applied in late 2025. A Victron lithium battery system with inverter was installed in February 2025, and new fuel flow monitoring with Maretron gauges was added. Systems throughout the boat reflect ongoing professional maintenance: stabilizers, bow thruster, hydraulic assist steering, trim tabs, and comprehensive Garmin navigation electronics with dual helm stations. Five air conditioning units, washer and dryer, watermaker, and extensive fire suppression systems support extended cruising operations.
