Too Much Change
Grand Banks made a high quality TRAWLER. 8 to 10 Knots vessel for owners who just wanted to mosey along with good fuel burn. Then they went to Fast Trawlers. I think they lost a lot of the old customer base. Fuel prices went up and so did price of boat. Boater I deal with today want low fuel burn and power to provide 8 to 10 knots max. The minute they see big engines they back off and look for another vessel. Lots of 3208s pulled out and replaced with Deere 4 Cyl. 135 HP engines. They should get back to where they started.
