Owner's comments

GRAND BANKS 42 EUROPA
  • Grand Banks 42 Europa for sale

    Let me introduce you to my ideal trawler, the Grand Banks 42 Europa in Sedan version — an exceptional model that beautifully combines elegance and performance. This boat for sale stands out thanks to its opening saloon leading directly onto a full-beam cockpit, creating a very generous and bright living space. It also offers two spacious cabins and a full bathroom, providing all the comfort needed for long and enjoyable cruises.

    A robust and economical engine package, built for long-distance cruising

    The power on this Grand Banks 42 Europa trawler comes from two Ford Lehman 120 hp engines — legendary inline 6-cylinder engines famous for their toughness and reliability. These durable workhorses make this boat an excellent choice for cruising in the Mediterranean or in more challenging conditions. I have always looked after it with the greatest care, which is why it is a used boat in excellent condition.

    A boat designed for performance and pure sailing pleasure

    I bought her and have cherished her as my faithful travel companion, always meticulously checked and maintained down to the smallest detail. Her excellent sea-keeping qualities and very low fuel consumption make her both economical and genuinely capable. Whether for coastal cruising or longer passages, this model was created to deliver safety, comfort and peace of mind.

    Reasons for the sale: a painful but necessary decision

    It is with a heavy heart that I am parting with this Grand Banks 42 Europa, but personal circumstances leave me no choice: the distance between the boat and my main home together with some health issues mean I can no longer use her as often as I would like. She has always been kept in perfect condition and remains today in truly impeccable shape, ready to give her next owner the same wonderful sensations on the water.

    Why is this Grand Banks 42 Europa such an interesting boat?

    This Grand Banks 42 Europa trawler is a real gem for several reasons:

    • A Sedan version with an opening saloon and full-beam cockpit, perfect for lovers of bright, sociable living spaces;
    • A very practical interior layout: two cabins + a full bathroom, ideal for comfortable independent cruising;
    • Proven, reliable engines with the two Ford Lehman 120 hp units — great power combined with excellent fuel economy;
    • A very solid build and excellent sea behaviour, well suited to Mediterranean cruising and more demanding waters;
    • Meticulous care from her current owner means the boat is in perfect working order and ready to head back to sea immediately.

    Whether you are an experienced yachtsman or someone looking for a quality used boat, the Grand Banks 42 Europa is a rare opportunity not to be missed. The perfect balance between performance, comfort and dependability makes her a safe and enjoyable choice for many years to come.
