The Brand banks 32 is a classic trawler yacht. Virtually unchanged in spirit throughout production since the early "woody" days in Hong Kong's Junk Bay over 45 years ago, the 32 has long been valued for her economy underway, ease of operation and her perfect size for a couple or small family, whether new to boating or experienced mariners. The 32 is a lovely, practical and "economical diesel cruiser" to use GB's own words. Sold by NWExplorations. Hull 722, Slow Dance, is a tenderly-loved fiberglass 32 Grand Banks and one of the few currently available in the Pacific Northwest. Having received extensive electronics, systems and maintenance updates in 2010-2011, she is ready to head north and continue her explorations. Her stout hard-chined semi-displacement hull design and well-protected running gear give her a seaworthiness that has built the Grand Banks reputation the world over. Inside, the spacious windows, warm teak joinery for which GB is so respected and diesel heater coddle you year-round in cozy comfort as your dinner simmers on the propane stove. Enjoy that fresh catch with a few friends around the drop-leaf dining table in the Salon or in the glow of a sunset in that spacious cockpit or on the flybridge. Cap off the evening with your feet propped on the cockpit's rail as you sip a "sundowner", before retiring to the comfortable forward berth. After a peaceful night on the hook, rouse her efficient Lehman diesel (1.8-2.5 gph fuel consumption) in the immaculate engine room and take command of her well-equipped helm to venture out for another day of exploring. With a 32, it doesn't get any easier or more relaxing.
While working on its new catamaran line, the shipyard’s in-house designers have been looking for ways to express the spirit of a classic sail yacht through modern marine architecture. As the first drawings were made, the idea became clear. An all-around sailing leisure yacht range ideal for exclusive getaways, charter and transoceanic adventures emerged. Purity, space and light are the essential elements of the newest sail range boasting a combination of exterior and interior areas easily flowing into one another. A clever bridge deck and superstructure design allow for a great onboard comfort potential whereas the generous teak use, high bulwarks and classy lines underscore the modern style with a classic edge. Sunreef Yachts’ latest addition to its already vast offer is a tribute to all those who won’t settle for a mass product. Future Owners will begin their journey with a white canvas. One to fill with ideas, shapes and colours.
We recently set the GoPro up to film the planking the new LM46 performancy yacht that is under construction at Lyman-Morse in Maine. The construction of this cold-molded performance cruiser is moving along quickly — and will get you sailing quickly, too! The cold-molding process involves layering western red cedar and epoxy applied in 4 rounds, two of which are seen here. A bag is then used to create a vacuum to ensure a tight seal and draw uniform pressure across the epoxy to cure. Excited to share more as construction develops. Check lymanmorse.com for details about the LM46.
