The Grand Banks 36 Classic is one of the most popular and enduring trawler designs of all time. Her timeless, classic lines have been turning heads for decades. She delivers a comfortable ride underway, and her high bulwarks provide security while on deck. The interior is luxurious, yet boasts a very functional layout with high-quality craftsmanship and a generous use of teak.
She has a spacious, clean engine room, and her interior has been well kept.
She was refit with aluminum fuel tanks. This is a very big plus for her next owner. Aging fuel tanks on used trawlers can be troublesome and very costly to replace.
