Overview

An exceptional full option 42 MY from 1997 in diligent ownership. Gleaming brightwork, beautiful interior joinery and that superb aft cabin. Motor boating does not come any better than this.

Broker's Comments

The Grand Banks 42 hull needs no introduction. From humble beginnings as fishing trawler hulls on the Newfoundland Grand Banks, the hull has become a milestone cruising yacht hull form, allowing stable displacement speeds, and with enough horsepower, a semi-displacement to near full-planing capability. The Motor Yacht thus simply improves on an exceptionally sea-worthy platform – with a fitted interior of the absolutely highest quality (wiring, booklets, lighting, joinery and mechanical installations are as good as it gets.). Combine this with a sensational aft cabin (with separate shower an heads compartments), long, lazy flybridge and an owner who has evidently doted on his yacht (she is shed-bound each winter for varnish/bright-work – with regular servicing) and you have a very rare opportunity.

 

Please note that a full set of high-resolution photographs are available upon request.
