Grand Banks Classic for sale in Seabrook, Texas United States of America

PRELIMINARY LISTING --

1997 Grand Banks 42 Classic Coral Caye Hull #1350

The Listing broker sold to the current owners 20 years ago. She has been on the Texas coast since then.

Coral Caye is a very clean and well-maintained, 1997 Grand Banks 42' Wide-Body Classic. In mid-1991, around hull number #1206, Grand Banks Yachts added a foot of length and nearly a foot of beam to their most popular line of 42 series yachts, creating what is referred to as the "Wide-Body" model. The extra space from the enlargement of the hull size is incorporated in the interior leading to a much more spacious feel.

These yachts rarely come on the market and when they do, they tend to sell quickly. This is a well-cared-for yacht that is ready to enjoy immediately.
