1999 Grand Banks Eastbay 38HX – Classic Downeast Cruiser with Outstanding Potential
PEARL is a classic 1999 Grand Banks Eastbay 38HX that showcases the timeless lines,
respected hull design, and craftsmanship that have made the Eastbay series a favorite among
knowledgeable cruisers. For buyers looking for a capable coastal cruiser with character, she
offers an appealing platform for customization and the chance to make a classic boat their own.
In recent years, both the port and starboard Caterpillar 3208 TA 375hp main engines were
removed for major component replacements and servicing. This significant work provides a solid
mechanical starting point and gives the next owner a strong foundation as they continue bringing
the boat to the next level.
The helm features a traditional, easy-to-use layout with straightforward controls. Equipment
includes autopilot, throttle synchronizer, and a Bennett Auto Tab Control system, providing the
essentials for comfortable cruising while leaving room for electronics modernization if desired.
Below deck, PEARL retains the warm character that Grand Banks interiors are known for, with
classic teak joinery throughout. The U-shaped galley is equipped with Corian countertops,
double sink, refrigerator access through the countertop, and a separate dry storage area with an
adjacent freezer. A three-burner gas cooktop, convection microwave, and generous overhead
storage round out the galley space.
Opposite the galley, a wraparound settee provides comfortable seating and converts into an
additional berth when needed. The vessel also features a full head with shower, toilet, and sink.
Forward, the primary stateroom offers approximately 6'6" of headroom at the centerline, with an
overhead hatch providing natural light and ventilation. The berth includes a removable filler
cushion for flexible use of the space.
With her classic Eastbay profile, strong pedigree, and recent mechanical attention, PEARL
represents a rare opportunity to acquire a respected Eastbay 38HX and continue refining her into
a truly special cruiser. For the right buyer willing to invest some care and vision, she will be well
worth the effort
