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.

5 more amazing insights into sailing myths.... *Naked Figureheads...* Ships were always adorned with a topless female figurehead, despite the common ban on women, because her bare breasts were believed to be the only thing that could truly calm a raging, tempestuous sea. The logic is a masterpiece of male projection: women distract sailors and anger the sea, yet a carved woman must be sacrificed to the elements to appease them both. A polarizing double standard! *The Word "Pig"...* Uttering the name of the humble, porcine farm animal was strictly forbidden on a sailing ship, a bizarre taboo that made even the word itself an omen of shipwreck. The common theory is dark, but practical: pigs transported in wooden crates were often the only survivors of a wreck, leading superstitious sailors to believe the creature's name was a perverse magnet for disaster. *Cat's Sneezing Omen...* A ship’s cat was a prized, lucky companion, but if that particular feline companion sneezed, it was a sudden, irrefutable prophecy that a severe rainstorm was immediately on its way. Cats were revered because they hunted the disease-carrying rats that chewed through the critical ropes and wooden hulls. That sneeze was just an excuse to pamper a valuable crew member, or maybe a simple fur-ball warning. *Tattooed Pigs and Roosters...* Sailors often tattooed a pig on one foot and a rooster on the other, believing these barnyard animals were powerful talismans against a watery grave. These animals were often carried in lightweight, buoyant wooden crates as livestock. The logic was: if the ship sank, the pigs and roosters would float ashore, symbolically guiding the sailor to safety. *Killing the Albatross...* To harm or kill the majestic Albatross was to commit the ultimate nautical sin, inviting the full, unforgiving wrath of the sea upon the entire crew. This myth, powerfully immortalized in The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, was actually a clever cultural deterrent to stop hungry, bored sailors from killing a bird that was genuinely helpful for navigation. We hope you enjoyed these myths. Let us know in the comments of any that you know about.
