2002 Grand Banks 42 Classic 42'

Boarding from the spacious teak swim platform through the transom gate, you'll enter the covered aft deck, where wide, same-level side decks provide safe and convenient access forward. From the port side deck, molded steps lead to the trunk cabin and flybridge, while the salon entrance is just forward.

Inside, the bright and inviting salon features the galley to port, with the guest stateroom and ensuite head located forward. To starboard are the lower helm with direct side deck access, a built-in glass storage and icemaker cabinet, and an L-shaped settee with storage, folding teak table, and two stools. A bench seat with additional storage and entertainment cabinetry is located aft to port. The full-beam owner's stateroom occupies the aft section of the yacht, offering a centerline queen berth, abundant storage, and separate head and shower compartments for added comfort and privacy. Engine room access is conveniently located beneath the salon sole, and the entire interior headliner was replaced in 2021.

Headroom measures an impressive 6'6" in the salon, 6'7" on the flybridge and in the guest stateroom, 6'3" in the guest head and master stateroom, and 6'0" in the master shower. The master berth measures 6'5" in length, while the guest berths measure 6'7".

With an air draft of just 13'1" to the top of the flybridge windscreen and 15'2" to the top of the flybridge bimini, this Grand Banks 42 Classic is well-suited for America's Great Loop, easily clearing the route's most restrictive fixed bridges with the bimini lowered.

Designed for comfortable cruising and extended stays aboard, GloriaUs features a highly desirable two-stateroom, two-head layout. The full-beam owner's suite aft offers exceptional privacy with a centerline queen berth, abundant storage, and separate head and shower compartments. Forward, the guest stateroom provides comfortable V-berth accommodations with its own ensuite head, making it ideal for family or overnight guests

The warm, inviting salon showcases the timeless craftsmanship Grand Banks is known for. Large opening windows provide abundant natural light and ventilation, while rich teak joinery and parquet sole create an elegant atmosphere. Twin side deck access doors enhance convenience when docking, and the spacious L-shaped settee, folding teak table, bench seating, and updated upholstery provide a comfortable setting for relaxing or entertaining. A built-in icemaker (2025), entertainment center, and easy engine room access beneath the salon sole complete this functional living space.

Located forward to port, the well-equipped galley is designed for extended cruising with generous storage, solid-surface countertops, a Princess three-burner electric range with oven, GE microwave, and upgraded Vitrifrigo refrigeration (2023). A large molded sink, abundant cabinetry, and nearby salon dining make meal preparation both practical and enjoyable, while the Magma stainless steel grill on the trunk cabin expands your entertaining options outdoors.

The salon's folding teak table provides a comfortable dining area for family and guests while maximizing living space when not in use.

The full-beam owner's suite is a private retreat featuring a centerline queen berth, extensive cabinetry and hanging lockers, opening windows, and direct access to separate head and shower compartments. Thoughtful storage, teak parquet flooring, and excellent natural ventilation make this an exceptionally comfortable space for extended cruising.

Forward accommodations include a bright and welcoming guest stateroom with V-berths, generous storage, hanging locker, opening windows, overhead hatch, and a private ensuite head. Well-appointed and comfortable, it provides an inviting space for family and guests alike.

The lower helm offers excellent visibility and all-weather operation, complete with a side deck access door for effortless docking. Full engine instrumentation, bow thruster and stabilizer controls, autopilot, and modern Raymarine electronics provide confidence whether cruising inland waterways or offshore passages.
