Another great episode gentlemen. I thought little could surprise me after last week's exceptionally pleasant diversion. How wrong was I. A powered boat like this isn't on my radar. However, its great to have an expert virtual tour of a boat that you hardly ever see here in Europe. Semper Fi brother, from an ex Army puke ;) Happy trails and I hope whatever you're moving on to next, gives you as much pleasure as your Grand Banks.
This just needs a/c and a bow thruster. Having owned a GB 32 I would focus on the condition of the fuel tanks. Great upgrades . This boat could last another 50 years.
Great boat for those who may not have the wherewithal due to health, agility, or other reasons, to still get out on the briny!!! Beautiful! And thank you all so much!!!
What a beautiful boat! You can tell the owner loves her. I even like the alterations because they make sense. I'm working on becoming a live-aboard, so I have looked at many, many boats online, partly just trying to learn about what's available and what would be best for my situation. This is now (I think) the third wooden trawler I've seen, but I've also done some research on the internet re wooden hulls, and what I've seen has caused me concern, in part around the reluctance of insurance companies to insure them, but also that it's supposedly difficult to find anyone who will work on them. And that, of course, would apply to wooden hulled sailboats as well. I heard you mention insurance companies requiring inspections every four years, but is there anything else you can tell us about that? Also about the difficulty in finding anyone to fix them or even haul them out? I'm very attracted to the older boats because of their character, but would love YOUR expert opinion on those things. If I was ready to pull the trigger, I'd be very tempted to take at look at this boat in person. Thanks for another informative episode.
I think I've also heard some Marinas don't allow wooden boats into their docks. I imagine you can still pull in to fuel up and get water so is it just a thing with docking or staying overnight or longer term or do they not even allow one to use a mooring ball???? Can anyone else comment who actually knows first hand. I do like this boat.
That is a gorgeous boat!! ………..and I wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot boat hook! You better have tones of money or lots of blood sweat and tears, and love for hard labor. Or both. But I really do love the lines.
Wow, what an old boat. Looks pretty good. Likely only a few yards left that could maintain a wooden boat like this. But you’ll never have to worry about polyester-mites eating the hull. Great seeing the USMC flag. Expensive for a boat sporting a porta potty. Don’t think I’d want that thing. Stained glass works look like something picked up from a garage sale. Would be interesting to look at but…….
I love this boat I can't stop watching this video over and over again it's perfect I wonder if it is still available? I always prefer single-engine over double I think the boat has more personality that way I'm right at about Thruster and AC but after that I wouldn't change a thing it's just what I'm looking for in a price is right
Hello how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
Love the old wooden Grand Banks and also the video of Heritage (Charlie’s Boat) sailing in the promo. Thanks for bringing this kind of content for an old sailor to reminisce.
Hell yes there is a good reason not to want a wooden hulled boat; maintenance. If you take it to wa water, like Florida, you may find your boat sinking due to wood borere. To stop this you will need to haul out every year for bottom paint, adding thousands to your cruising budget. A boat built that long ago is going to have problems with the screws used to fasten the planks to the hull. If you keep it in cold water and never go anywhere, if you love working on boats rather than cruising, go ahead and buy it.
Before this channel I had no idea that Hong Kong was such a force in boat building. It'd be neat if you guys could comment on the history of HK boatbuilding in a future episode.
Hello Dale how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
Enjoyed the tour of this eclectic boat. I don't believe our Good Captain commented on the weird black decks. I applaud the owner's commitment to his own vision although I must confess I am perplexed by much of it. To each their own! Huzzah!
It's cute and all, but,,, what does 2.5 gals an hour translate into miles... Say you want to take a trip. Oh say, West Palm to Grand Cayman!! Does this have the range? $$ spent at $3.50 per gal would cost? And time? The performance was not talked about very much!!!
4:00 I wonder how a few gallons of water mixed with some soap and some Bleach would work? Pour it on, scrub it in, let it sit for 10-20 minutes and rinse. Bleach kills mold.
Hello Petter how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
27 sounds like a good number the layout a little strange but fixable as well as instrumentation on the flying bridge other then that wonderfull grand banks I have worked on maybe 6 of the 32's maybe 2 of the 36's maybe a 42 and one of the big 50 whatever the only thing that drives me nuts about grand banks is bad bulwark construction and Parque floor soles and Ford Lehman engine
Yes that is my concern too. The entry price is very attractive. The unknowns were maintenance and running costs scare me because I don't know trawlers. Would love to buy this, do the Great loop over a season or two and then sell it. but I scared of the running and maintenance costs and the engine pooping out and needing replacement.
those slanty covers for the storage in the master cabin would be good for laying up several charts showing a long passage course. I'm curious about why and how you'd use that sail
It might help reduce your fuel burn on a passage with a favourable wind...it could get you home at a push if you had a motor fail but it would help steady her at anchor or underway in the face of a beam swell by slowing the rocking motion. I think he mentioned that at the very start.
@@m1k3droid If the swell is rocking the boat side to side being tall the rotations down near the water line or below..its like an air brake/fan. Sail boats especially with a ketch rig can part deploy their sail .. to slow the movement.. and keep the bow into the wind at anchor. You can also deploy flopper stoppers.
@@YachtHunters ok this explains to me about some turkish old timey motor yachts being produced today that have a stunted mast and boom above the top deck. I was curious that they were too small to actually propell the boat much at all if the motor went out.
Another fine showing. Looks like it was built like a tank. Modified to the owners preferences. Lots of those 36 footers out there. Keep showing the trawlers as you come across them. Thanks Captain and Randy and your little doggy too.
Hello how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
My family is looking for a trawler just like this near this price. We are in Longview, WA. willing to move to whereevr it is. Must be worthy to go from Seattle to Florida, or be in FL. already. We will be liveaboard for 2-5 years homeschooling our 7 year old. We like this but are concerned on sizet, we like a bit bigger. Must have twins, M/Y, no sail.
there is so much more "boat" boat than modern fiberglass and carbon fiber. As an old navy vet, i really appreciate the look and I can imagine the smells coming out. A microwave oven near a wood burning stove. I guess that sums it up. I really liked the line work on the wheel--reminded me of some of my old and skilled boatswains mates. (I was First LT, one an LST) I would think the maintenance far exceeds the investment, but so nice.
Hello Thomas how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
The guy I bought my Allied Seawind II Ketch from. Got a Grand Banks when I got the Seawind ll. Captain Q you and the family would look good cruising in the Keys on her.
Another great episode...I actually think that is me at 24:39 coming under the Newport Bridge headed back to Quonset. Not 100% sure but it sure looks like it!
Well, sparkling wine anyway… Frexinet.. for whatever reason we never got hungover from drinking it after racing… also it’s easy on the wallet. Cheers! 🥂
Wow, I was surprised by the positive comments, thought you would have a mutiny here. First, the electric "dingy" last week and instead of a course correction, you give us a wooden power boat! Also, video clarity was poor and not well-synced with the audio. Not much of the usual schtick and humor we love until the grandkids came on the scene....Even Ran-day seemed kind of flat, but can you blame him? Looking forward to the old Captain Q next Thursday!
In 1978 I owned a 1968 wood hulled 42' Grand Banks called Misty IV. completely redid the main salon and the staterooms and stripped and varnished all the mahogany rails and brightwork. We used it for albacore fishing off the Cortez Bank south of San Diego and shark fishing in Santa Monica Bay The boat hailed from Marina Del Rey A Basin.

Love the Trawler, hope to see more of them! Love the channel!
Great way to start the episode with heritage and finish in the grand Banks wooden boat. Great episode.
Wow a nice classic that’s well loved and if I was a motor boat guy it would make a great live aboard
I've never seen a boat more perfect for me.
Excellent episode and the cherry on the cake was the family contribution. Brilliant
You guys leave me looking forward to every Thursday and never disappoint.
I concur!
Aren’t they an absolute breath of fresh air?
Great boat for the non-sailor, it was so nice to see the kids on board. I love the interior ⛵️⛵️💕💕

I'll give this video a 27 also. Very nice! :^) OK, the kids and it's wooden boat so I was suckered in. LOL
Super video… great boat
As power boats go she is a beauty. I like the trawler design. Thanks guys.
Thanks for posting and sharing. Very interesting trawler.
Great classic boat and you have a beautiful family, Captain Q!
Thank you, Neal!
Nice tour of the trawler. Thanks.
Fantastic boat,such fun you guyz as always!!
This just needs a/c and a bow thruster. Having owned a GB 32 I would focus on the condition of the fuel tanks. Great upgrades . This boat could last another 50 years.
You bring up a great point I’d like to see an episode on a survey You can learn a lot from a surveyor
It has both a/c and a bow thruster
I liked what I saw...Nice boat, decent price for something you could sail or turn into a live aboard.
What a beautiful classic
That nonskid looked great! :)
What a wonderful boat.
That boat is a steal at that price.
Great boat for those who may not have the wherewithal due to health, agility, or other reasons, to still get out on the briny!!!
Beautiful! And thank you all so much!!!
The 27 is a good number rating for this boat!! It looks great through and through
Wonder if this is the company that Tony Fleming started with?the
Beginning of Fleming boats?Looks similar to his boats and very well built!
It’s new home should be Lunenburg NS. Love it !

Contact thd broker Annie at gray and gray yacht brokers
Fantastic boat, great vid, mixing it up with the occasional classic power cruiser will help the channel grow.
Wow... What a beauty!!
I see many a great fishing trip to be taken aboard her. Only upgrade would be a transom BBQ to enjoy the catch.
Hello how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
Nice episode Captain Q, Ran-day, Sea Dog and Sea Pup! But no Freixenet nor Dinty Moore!
Good eye, Thomas… it was a sad state of affairs!
I really enjoyed this episode. Keep up the good work guys!
Love the old wooden Grand Banks and also the video of Heritage (Charlie’s Boat) sailing in the promo. Thanks for bringing this kind of content for an old sailor to reminisce.
Heritage is a dream! Charlie did well with that one!
One of my ❤️ episodes Cap’n and Ran-day👍🏻👍🏻

Beauty....perfect for this Old Salt cruising Inside Passage to Canada and Queen Charlotte's 4 months a year.
What would a hull survey cost?
I want to buy every boat that you guys show
Nice boat, if I were going to have a power boat it would be a trawler. Keep the good stuff coming Captain.
The kids are a definite upgrade from the Dinty Moore!
Or are they?!? 😉 just kidding… they are wonderful
Glad Randy did not fall in from the bowsprit!
Un-duz-it is good stuff. Thanks for the recommendation.

Was that the lovely Mrs. Q atop the boat with the rest of the gang at the end of the video?
It would be
@@YachtHunters I'm sure I speak for some of us, it would be lovely to meet her dear captain.
It's cute and all, but,,, what does 2.5 gals an hour translate into miles... Say you want to take a trip. Oh say, West Palm to Grand Cayman!! Does this have the range? $$ spent at $3.50 per gal would cost? And time?
The performance was not talked about very much!!!
9 miles per hour.
My GB32 had a range of 800 miles with a 200 mile reserve with the same engine. 1.9 GPH at 7.5 kts
4:00 I wonder how a few gallons of water mixed with some soap and some Bleach would work? Pour it on, scrub it in, let it sit for 10-20 minutes and rinse. Bleach kills mold.
It just might but I think we had. Some organism life too !!lol
Bleach kills a lot of other things if it gets out into the water or onto the ground, too.
Alright. I want that for Christmas. Do you deliver? I know, in my dreams. Great show guys, as always.
Finally a sailboat with a lounge. Lots of custom details....👌.

Miss the fleet of boats tacking as you go below.
Be careful what you wish for, Jim, we put it back in by request this week 😀
@@YachtHunters 👍
I gave it a 30 for the family friendly presentation
I don't see any trawl gear, what kind of trawl is it set up for?
Loved the video, always look forward to your next. You are inspirational, keep up the great work.
I really enjoyed your last couple videos including this one you're branching out
Looks like a high maintenance beast.
Yes that is my concern too. The entry price is very attractive. The unknowns were maintenance and running costs scare me because I don't know trawlers.

Reminds me of Robert P Beeb's Passagemaker.
Hello how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
Inside Passage here we come.
Great idea!
Interesting that Oliver Stone had a pop factory in his movie.

She is a 12 meter, Heritage. Check out @heritage12m on Instagram if you have it… if not, 12myc.org/heritage-us-23/
good starter boat for anyone.
I'd live on that here in Vancouver bc
A great way to live on the water in a lovely city
A Too much climbing up and too highly perched for me.
Love the video, the ending was the best, I give it a 100, the highest rating ever.
You are very kind
I ❤ the Marine Corps flag really is impressive. Semper Fi my brother.
Hello Thomas how are you doing. I believe you are healthy and also having a nice weather where you are. I live in California and I'm looking for a new friend Ok!
old wooden boat? been there, done that. power or sail, never again.
What we'll behaved children. You can tell they're from a good family.
The guy I bought my Allied Seawind II Ketch from. Got a Grand Banks when I got the Seawind ll. Captain Q you and the family would look good cruising in the Keys on her.
Another great episode...I actually think that is me at 24:39 coming under the Newport Bridge headed back to Quonset. Not 100% sure but it sure looks like it!
We would have waved if we knew!! It was shot Nov 9th at around 2-3pm… if that helps narrow it down
Wow I love that One Capt Unreal Big fan of those types of Ships ,Thanks everyone for showing me around
Great info. Didn't know the history of the brand. The music reminded me of the old Johnny Carson show breaks.
If a fifty year old wood boat has never been refastened, it is way overdue, at considerable expense. Ask Great Bay to quote that.
To hell with wood . It's lifespan is limited.
Beautiful boat. Back when they built them to last forever...as long as you care for it.
Dose anyone know what champagne they are always talking about?
Well, sparkling wine anyway… Frexinet.. for whatever reason we never got hungover from drinking it after racing… also it’s easy on the wallet. Cheers! 🥂
Can you sail this boat, as a main form of propulsion?
No you cannot… the sail area is not great enough…. Only used to steady her underway and at anchor
Wooden you not get insurance? Several years ago I tried to get a wooden hull insured here in FL - No deals....
Thank you for making this video. I just closed on it. Highest regards

Great livaboard..park it up in some lovely bay and enjoy a few margaritas.
Mok Chong = Woodwork Factory not woodworker
Unfortunately, tanks don't float!!
Oh gosh...... no thanks. I thought this channel was all about sailing boats
98% of the time it is! 😂
If you had a choice between Wood and Fiberglass of the same boat, which one would you chose and why?
Given a choice, go with fiberglass. The wood could get dry rot and corrosion of the fittings over time
I think this is termed a picnic boat.
No, you don’t want a wood boat trust me That deck is scary
Is this boat still available
I live in California
Would love to own this lovely boat
I’d be curious of the fuel usage for a boat like that.
he said it, 2.5 gallons an hour at 8 knots

In 1978 I owned a 1968 wood hulled 42' Grand Banks called Misty IV. completely redid the main salon and the staterooms and stripped and varnished all the mahogany rails and brightwork. We used it for albacore fishing off the Cortez Bank south of San Diego and shark fishing in Santa Monica Bay The boat hailed from Marina Del Rey A Basin.
Thanks Tim I’m sure it’s still patrolling coastal waters somewhere
So did the Captain buy the Ted Hood yawl steel hull sailboat?
enjoyed seeing the family
Nice old lady there! Thanks for sharing!
Smart putting PFDs on the kids.
