Eric--- GB is faster to type than b-o-a-t.* Also, if all you say is "boat" there will always be someone who asks "what kind of boat do you have?"* The real snobs are the ones who say "Grand Banks" every time :-)

Peter-- GBs have solid fiberglass hulls and superstructures.* The decks and cabin tops are fiberglass-marine ply-fiberglass sandwiches.* The cabin structure of a GB--- at least the older ones-- have wood framing attached to the inside of the fiberglass shell to hold the bulkheads, interior walls, to provide stiffening where needed, and so forth.* But they are not glassed-over plywood.
