New horizons.

Venerated Grand Banks is pushing 70 years, and in all that time, the company has been much more than a trendsetter in the luxury cruising sector.

“There is simply no other long-range cruising design on the water like this new Grand Banks,” says Grand Banks CEO Mark Richards.

Adding a few more feet to the highly popular 60-foot GB launched in 2017 meant a larger starboard amidships stateroom, an athwartships owner’s stateroom to port and a single opposite, giving this three-stateroom, three-ensuite head layout some real clout when cruising. Abundant storage space throughout complements the 62’s long-range cruising abilities. In addition, she is available in three layout configurations, including Skylounge with an upper galley, Flybridge with an upper galley and Flybridge with an extended salon and a lower galley.

The fine fit and finish and strict attention to detail is quite apparent. Oversized and opening salon windows allow the space, including the lower helm and aft galley, to be flooded with ambient light and fresh air. The spacious bow area and aft areas offer seating and dining opportunities.

As with all Grand Banks builds, the 62’s construction process uses resin-infused E-Glass with the hull and all other component parts fused to the carbon fiber structure. All this filters down to strength and performance, as the company’s sea trial reports a 30-knot top speed and a cruise speed of 27 knots with her standard power. Bring the 62 down to true trawler speed of 10 knots and it has a whopping 2,000-mile range with a 10% reserve. Optional power includes twin 1,000-hp Volvo D13s with shaft drives or a pair of 900-hp Volvo IPS 1200S.

With her classic lines, state-of-the-art construction techniques and a rich heritage defining the long-range cruising sector, the Grand Banks 62 allows you to set your sights on new horizons.
