Broker Remarks

Built in 1972 of wood with teak side decks and cockpit. Distinctive teak-trimmed transom and rails, plumb bow, high bulwarks, large deckhouse and flying bridge, the 36 foot Grand Banks is a boat that has a traditional look.

The first Grand Banks yachts were built in Hong Kong until 1968, when production was moved to Singapore. (Today, boats are built in both Singapore and Malaysia.) Known for traditional craftsmanship, flawless wood joinery and classic styling, Grand Banks did not switch from all-wood (Philippine mahogany) construction to contemporary fiberglass construction methods until 1973.

Easy for two people to handle by themselves. Large master stateroom aft, a single head compartment, a guest stateroom with V-berths forward and an airy saloon with an inside helm station (in addition to the station on the fly bridge) and an adjacent galley.  Would make a very comfortable liveaboard boat.
