Those Grand Banks have so much character!
Under $4,000 is about $0.50 per mile which is not that much worse than my Jeep TJ here in California.
Fuel was not that bad, we only got fuel three times
$2 per gallon
Amazing! Those are long days. I’m expecting 5-6 weeks NY to Florida at looper speed.
Almost 3.5 to the gal. Not too shabby. What were the typical rpms needed for cruising speed?
I would say about 1900 RPM both techs said something different but split the difference of them at 1900
Nice run and a great explanation. In the early 90's we had a similar trawler with ours being a 1980 36' Albin Trawller with a single 120HP Ford Lehman as well. These are such reliable vessels and engines.
I believe it’s a great engine package for the budget trawler person. ❤️🙏👍🏻😉
my generator went out on my GB 36 it was replaced with six golf cart batteries and a xantrex invertor create 110 volts and run the electric cook stove
Why do you need to run the gen.while under way? I never do on my 36ft Grand Bank's my inverter takes care of my 120volts?
We don’t anymore, when we had the old A/Cs we would have to run the generator if we wanted to run them. With the new A/Cs we can run one off the inverter so we don’t run it while under way anymore. Thanks for the comment God Bless
Hey man, what year grad are you. Me…1972. I am very interested in checking out the waters in the NW, and I like the GB brand. I may pick your brain later for some info on trawlers. Currently still flying my 180. Thanks for the video. Jim K
