This 2002 Grand Banks 46 Europa is a pilothouse trawler built for extended cruising. Twin Caterpillar 3126B diesel engines produce 450 horsepower each, delivering a cruising speed of 12 knots and a maximum speed of 20 knots. The boat features a hinged radar arch that folds down to reduce air draft to 15 feet, making it well-suited for low-clearance passages. The fiberglass hull measures 46 feet in length with a 14-foot-7-inch beam.
The interior layout includes two staterooms and two heads, each head fitted with an enclosed shower. The main saloon is spacious, and there is a separate flybridge for open-air steering and observation. Three independent zones provide heating and air conditioning throughout the boat, with dedicated battery banks supporting an inverter system. A washer and dryer are installed, along with a generator for independent power.
Equipment includes active stabilizers, a hydraulic swim platform, a tender davit, and custom canvas covers for protecting brightwork. The boat is outfitted with an AquaDrive system for the propulsion arrangement and carries the systems typical of a cruising trawler designed for both comfort and practical passagemaking.
