Grand Banks Launches Swift and Stylish New Addition to the Eastbay Series - Banks 47 Eastbay FB

The Grand Banks 47 Eastbay FB was featured in the 2005 Miami show along with its predecessor, the stunning Grand Banks 58 Eastbay FB.

The latest addition to Grand Banks' Eastbay Series of yachts, this two-stateroom craft is a head-turner in every way. And, as with all Grand Banks yachts, the quality of manufacturing is apparent in every detail. The hull of the 47 Eastbay FB is solid fiberglass below the chine and cored with vacuum-bagged PVC foam in the topsides. A smooth ride and exceptional performance is always guaranteed with the authentic C. Raymond Hunt hull design. With a standard power package of twin 700 HP engines and optional engines up to 720 HP, the 47 Eastbay FB quietly enjoys top speeds exceeding 30 knots and easily cruises at 25.

Its high-quality hull design sports cruising speeds in the mid- 20-knot range, but its story is not just about performance.

Built to the exacting standards that Grand Banks owners have known for decades, this flybridge model offers elegant styling, generous standard amenities and comfortable accommodations.

Throughout the yacht, finely milled wood work, cedar-lined hanging lockers, chrome fittings, crown molding, and seamless Corian® countertops underline many of the finer details one expects in a Grand Banks-built boat. A graceful staircase to the flybridge curves gently up from the cockpit, marking yet another design choice that is at once elegant and practical.
