Description

The 1989 Grand Banks 36 Classic is a distinguished trawler renowned for its timeless design, robust construction, and comfortable cruising capabilities. Crafted with a solid fiberglass hull and adorned with rich Burmese teak finishes, this vessel exemplifies the quality and elegance associated with the Grand Banks name.


Design & Layout


The 36 Classic features a traditional trawler layout with a forward V-berth stateroom and an aft master suite, each equipped with its own head and shower. The salon, situated between the staterooms, offers an L-shaped settee, a dining table, and a lower helm station, all surrounded by large windows that provide ample natural light and panoramic views. The galley is well-appointed with a 3-burner stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, and double sink, making it suitable for extended voyages.


Performance & Handling


Powered by twin Ford Lehman SP-135 diesel engines, each producing 135 hp, the Grand Banks 36 Classic cruises comfortably at approximately 8.5 knots, with a maximum speed around 15 knots. The vessel’s semi-displacement hull, long keel, and deep forefoot contribute to its stability and seaworthiness, ensuring a smooth ride even in challenging conditions.


Deck & Exterior Features


The exterior boasts teak planked decks, a spacious flybridge with duplicate helm station and seating for up to eight, and a teak swim platform. High bulwarks with sturdy teak handrails and wide side decks enhance safety while moving around the vessel. The flybridge, accessible via a ladder from the aft cockpit, serves as an ideal space for entertaining or relaxing under a bimini top.


Systems & Equipment


Equipped with hot and cold pressurized water, a 12-gallon water heater, electric bilge pumps, battery charger, and shore power inlet, the 36 Classic is designed for comfortable living aboard. Navigation electronics typically include GPS, radar, depth sounder, and VHF radio. Safety equipment such as life jackets and fire extinguishers are standard, though items like liferafts may require servicing.


Owner Experiences


Owners have praised the Grand Banks 36 Classic for its heavy and stable feel in the water, ease of single-handed operation, and the quality of its craftsmanship. The vessel’s design allows for easy maneuverability, and features like the side helm door facilitate docking and line handling. The spacious aft cockpit and flybridge provide ample outdoor living space, enhancing the overall cruising experience.


In summary, the 1989 Grand Banks 36 Classic remains a sought-after vessel for those seeking a combination of classic aesthetics, reliable performance, and comfortable accommodations for extended cruising.
