https://www.yachtworld.com/yacht/1984-grand-banks-classic-8499649/ No connection to broker or owner but while surfing Yachtworld this stood out to me as a rare offering. When I was looking for a trawler I never found one of these. Maybe someone will appreciate---Wish it had a NA 210 lower hour Cat but still interesting boat. Peace
 
It’s somewhat rare in the PNW.
Most all GB owners plug along at 7-8 knots so why buy anything else … IMO.
And if you think the 42 is too big for you you’ll probably disagree w yourself in a year.
But because of fuel cost you could have trouble at bidding time. Good luck.

Nice looking boat, BUT: 7300 hours on the engine, and original wood decks.
Looks like the fuel tanks MAY have been replaced.
Ancient (probably original Westerbreke genny, not my favorite, but otherwise, not a bad looking boat.
 
Naiads and a thruster? I'd use the 7300 hours as a bargaining point. Same owner for 22-years, though engine room looks a bit unloved. Note position of radar on front of flybridge (aka "Nut Roaster").

Definitely would have my interest if in the market.
