• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines
    • We expect ads placed to be related to the topic of this forum.
    • Ads that are inactive for 180 days or longer may be moved to the Classified Archive and locked. Ads may be relisted if the item is still current. Alternatively, owners may contact a Moderator to reinstate an archived ad.
    • The Classified section is for advertising, members are asked to refrain from posting discussions to a Classified Ad. Please start a discussion thread or PM the owner for discussions.
    • Do not hijack another member's ad by posting unsolicited commentary. Example: if a member has posted an ad offering an anchor for sale, don't add a post to his thread stating that you have an anchor you'd like to get rid of also. Posts deemed as unsolicited commentary may be removed.
    • For your own security, do NOT include your e-mail or phone number in your ad. Instead request that interested parties contact you via PM (private message) to provide owners contact info.
    • Brokers, Dealers, or those with a commercial interest in a sale are prohibited from posting in Classifieds.
    • Only Trawler Forum Commercial Members may post ads in the Commercial section. You must be a designated Commercial Member to start threads in this section of the forum. (Contact a moderator if you have questions about this)
    • Don't post links to commercial sites where you are also offering the boat, such as eBay, Craigslist or Yachtworld, etc. unless it contains a more in-depth description, additional information or pictures.
    • Place only one ad per item (you may repost only when your ad has expired and been removed).
    For Sale ads MUST include:
    • Asking price
    • Location
    • A Basic Description
    • Clear statement whether you are the owner or non-owner (posting for friend, relative, or acquaintance)
    • Don't forget to select: FOR SALE, WANTED or FREE in the Title block.
    All ads should also include ALL the following:
    • Pertinent maintenance and condition information
    • Exterior picture or pictures
    • Interior picture or pictures (boats)
    For maximum impact & exposure, it is suggested the Ad Title include: Year, Manufacturer, Model, Length, Price, and Location or at the very top of the ad body. When your item has sold or the ad is no longer relevant: Please post a Reply to the ad that the item is SOLD or click "Report Post" on post 1 of the thread to ask a moderator to archive the ad. Ads may be moved or removed by our staff at any time for any reason. All ads must comply with site rules. Thanks for your cooperation.
  • Avoid Scams.

    Our classifieds are free and anyone registered here is welcome to post an ad.
    Be aware that there are unscrupulous folks out there. Avoid any interaction that seems odd to you or �feels� wrong. Inquiries from unknown buyers, buyers �agents� and other non-traditional approaches should be treated with extreme caution.

    Beware of unsolicited contacts offering to put you in touch with someone else who is buying or selling via e-mail or text.

    Do not post your e-mail address or phone number in a classifieds ad.

    Hints that you may be dealing with a Scammer:
    • Seller or Buyer approaches you via a direct email or PM and then steers you to an off-site communication method (text or email).
    • No posts or very few forum posts.
    • Recent forum membership
    • Insists on conducting negotiations via email or text rather than PM
    • Requires payment via Bank Transfer, BitCoin/CryptoCurrency, WesternUnion or other unsecured method.
    • Buyer or Seller suggests Paypal "Friends and Family" payment. Paypal is a good way to arrange payment but an invoice for goods and services should be used rather than "Friends and Family". "Friends and Family" avoids fees BUT there is no recourse if the transaction runs aground. Friends and Family is for gifts only. There is no protection for Friends and Family transactions, so never ever use it to buy something.
    • Declines to allow viewing the item before proceeding with the transaction.

Grand Banks 42
Classic 1971 Grand Banks 42 “Woody”makes this true iconic trawler yacht a great value. Vagabond is built of woods which simply are not available today. Her mahogany planked, bronze fastened hull and yankle framing are in good condition as are the 120 hp Ford Lehman diesels, and Onan 5.5 generator. Smooth running mechanically; very well maintained. Some recent (over the last 2 years) updates include new fresh water pump and expansion tank, new raw water pump, new shower sump, new bilge pumps and alarm, new starters, new solenoid engine shut down system, new generator stator and electronic control board, new 240 watt solar panels and controller. Fridge replaced with stainless steel two drawer refrigerator/freezer combo.
Vagabond has a spacious, open main salon with dining in a large L-settee around the Grand Banks trademark teak yacht table. There is a bar with bottle/glass storage next to the settee. There is a fully equipped galley to port and a complete helm station to starboard. Forward is the 'guest' stateroom with a V-berth, hanging locker and private head with shower. Aft of the salon and down a few steps is the master stateroom with teak built-in hanging lockers and drawer storage. The head has a toilet and tub with shower.
Available spare parts include engine oil cooler, heat exchanger, alternator, starter, fuel pump, assorted gaskets and seals and many more.
2016 Survey available on request.
Vagabond is a beautiful, stately, spacious grand lady of a boat that is a pleasure to sail. It is a high class testament to what craftsmanship and quality design can produce.

Please contact Charity at 423-580-4330

Pricing reflects that the bottom paint, canvas and bright work need attention.
$25000

Is she in a marina in Chattanooga? If so, where, and how much is the slip rental? I live in Atlanta and would drive back and forth.
 
That is an insane price for a Grand Banks.

To those nervous of wood boats consider this.. It's almost 50 years old and still here.

It is in a covered slip at Lake Shore Marina, with power comes in around $280

Right now I am traveling 2200 miles to get to my boat....one of the reasons I am selling it.

Will most likely be around for another 50 years. Grand Banks was one of the best built trawlers ever made. Woods that are no longer available.

I owned m/v ¨Whittler´s Dream" a 1969 version GB Classic 42/125 built for Robert & Mildred Newton, founder and CEO of American Marine Ltd. aka Grand Banks Ltd.
We had here around the Eastern 3rd of the US and sold her in Decatur, Alabama just down river from you. Sounds like a fair price. Love to see her. We had WD from 2001-2013 and miss her dearly. I am surprised we never met. Whittlers Dream GB42-125 contact us at MexicoEcoResort@gmail.com sometime. Por favor.
