1985 Grand Banks 36 Classic

The Grand Banks 36 Classic is one of the most iconic trawler-style yachts ever built, widely regarded as a benchmark for long-range cruising boats. Introduced in the mid-1960s by American Marine (the original name for Grand Banks Yachts) in Hong Kong/Singapore, it was the company's first model and helped define the modern trawler yacht category.

Nuthin Fancy is a prime example of the Grand Banks 36 Classic, a stunning trawler from 1985 that embodies timeless elegance and robust performance. With an overall length of 36.83 feet, this vessel is designed for both comfort and adventure on the water. Crafted from durable fiberglass, it promises longevity and resilience. Powered by a reliable Caterpillar 3208 inboard diesel engine, delivering 211 horsepower, this boat is equipped for smooth cruising and long range. The engine has been well-maintained, with only 4,663 hours of use, ensuring dependable journeys. Accommodations include two inviting cabins and two heads, providing ample space for relaxation and privacy. The electric windlass enhances convenience, making anchoring a breeze.  "Nuthin Fancy," is perfect for those seeking a blend of classic style and modern functionality, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned sailors and newcomers alike.
