GRAND BANKS 48 Year 1975
- Already sold -
Built in wood by American Marine in Hong Kong and designed by Kenneth Smith, the favorite architect of the Grand Banks, this 48-footer is the shipyard's emblematic model. Ridiculous fuel consumption, exceptional seaworthiness, a timeless look and "Grand Banks" finishes: this boat is a true icon.
The successive owners of this magnificent trawler have kept it in excellent condition, and improved it while retaining its original spirit.
It is a rare boat, of high quality.
Owner's words
To be the owner of the Grand Banks is to be part of a legend, nothing ostentatious but a feeling of partnership that this unit brings you from the first bow waves.We feel the security in its behavior, it follows its immutable course, its two John Deere engines push endlessly, they purr without asking too much.Of course it is not a star, it is not designed for speed but for reliability.Its interior and exterior spaces of 90M2 very bright give incomparable comfort to this 48 Motor Yacht, this boat is the marriage of wood and bronze. We covered all the openings and portholes with batyline not only for visibility from the outside but for protection from insects and runoff.
