GB Factory comments of the origin of the "Eastbay Series"
In 1993, grand Banks pioneered the modern interpretation of the lobster boat as a stylish and powerful cruising yacht - what many now refer to as a "Downeast cruiser" - with the launch of the Eastbay Series.
Blending a refined nautical sensibility with pulse-quickening speed, the Eastbay Series by Grand Banks continues to ignite the spirit of today's discerning yachtsman. With its Ray Hunt Association design, teak toe rails, stylish handcrafted interiors - and powerful pair diesels underfoot - no other boat combines ageless design and high performance like the Eastbay. Unequalled elegance and exhilaration in one distinctive package.
