The Grand Banks 42 Classic is regarded by many as the boat for those choosing to live a cruising lifestyle. The original design by Ken Smith has been amended and updated with the practical input of her proud owners. The experience gained since the laying of the first GB 42 keel in 1966 is reflected in each one commissioned today.
The Grand Banks semi displacement hull design, with a fine entry forward, hard chines aft and a full keel, has been proven on waters around the world. Single or twin diesel power will deliver cruising speeds when larger than the standard engines are chosen. Many power options are available.
The focal point of the Grand Banks 42 Classic is the Deckhouse. The spacious main saloon measures 148 x 104 and combines the activities hub, entertainment center and main living area.
Looking forward, you can see the fully equipped galley to port and the complete helm station to starboard. The companionway forward leads to the guest stateroom with V berths and a roomy head with its own shower. The galley is complete with a range/oven, refrigerator, stainless steel sink, cutting boards and excellent storage in several cabinets. The helm area features a full width overhead electronics locker and a flip up storage compartment for manuals and navigational tools. Just aft of the starboard door is the dry bar cabinet.
Looking aft in the saloon, you can see the long L shaped sette with another Grand Banks hallmark, a teak yacht table.
The aft stateroom, like the entire boat, displays the beautiful teak joinery for which Grand Banks are known the world over. Parquet soles, built in furniture and cabinets and hand crafted moldings are blended with modern fabrics to create the traditional yacht look. This stateroom features a choice of several layouts with a double berth to starboard and a single berth to port being standard. All layouts have exceptional storage in hanging lockers, bureaus, and below berth drawers. A large, flat chart drawer is standard in each layout. The private owners head has a separate stall shower and good storage for towels in several cabinets.
The engine room in the 42 Classic is special. With working space outboard of and between both engines there is a plenty of installation space for the essential gear chosen by cruising people today. The standard 8kW generator, visible behind the engines in the photo, comes with a sound shield for quiet operation.
Incorporated are many design features imprtant when cruising under power. The exterior of the hull and deckhouse on the GB 42 is laid over the fiberglass on the main deck and flybridge. The bulwarks surrounding the wide main deck are capped with a sturdy teak safety rail providing safe movement from bow to stern for those on board.
The flybridge is easily accessible from the main deck and offers excellent 360 degree visibility when underway or maneuvering dockside. A pair of back to back double seats provides generous seating for eight with watertight storage beneath the seats. The bridge console has full instrumentation with handy storage for large items below. The handcrafted teak steering wheel is a Grand Banks hallmark.
The standard electric windlass, mounted on a dual roller anchor platform protected by a stainless rail, helps make the anchoring process as simple as possible. The location of the shore power inlets, at the bow and the stern, makes power connections possible without boat position being a problem. The foredeck storage locker is great for lines and the large lazarette aft provides convenient storage for a variety of cruising gear.
Todays Grand Banks 42 Classic has been decades in the making. Her practical layout, sturdy fiberglass construction, deep water design, and long range capability all add up to a complete cruising boat. The legendary quality built into each GB 42 makes her an outstanding and durable value in the yachting world.
