GREAT LOOP VETERAN!!!

An iconic boat that needs no introduction, the 42 Grand Banks was one of the most successful boats ever built. Over 1500 of these boats were built. Though not a traditional trawler hull shape, the long keel, hard chines and deep forefoot give the 42 better performance with little effect on efficiency, ride and seaworthiness.

If you are looking for a great boat to do the Loop, look no further. Starpath has already completed the Great Loop and is ready to do it again.

Manufacturer Description:

The Grand Banks 42 Classic has been decades in the making. The original Ken Smith design has been amended and updated with the practical input of her owners. The experience gained since the laying of the first GB 42 keel in 1966 is reflected in each one commissioned today. Her practical layout, sturdy fiberglass construction, deep water design, and long range capability all add up to a complete cruising boat. The Grand Banks semidisplacement hull design, with a fine entry forward, hard chines aft, and a full keel has been proven on waters around the world.
