Description
Designed by C. Raymond Hunt Associates and built to the industry's highest standards by Grand Banks, the Eastbay 40 takes cruising to the next level. Boosting a tasteful salon, galley, and helm on a single level, designed with luxurious cruising accommodations below in two separate cabins. This fast cruiser combines a beautiful Downeast appearance with a state-of-the-art hull form below the waterline. A modified deep-V provides cruising speeds of around 20 knots with a top speed of 25 knots, all while maintaining comfortable sea-keeping behavior.
Highlights include:
- Over $145k invested in mechanical systems over the past two years, in what would be a better than “2k hr service”
- Recent full flybridge enclosure in navy blue canvas
- Preferred island queen master cabin with the galley-up configuration
- Safety cameras are integrated into both Furuno units for the engine room and aft cockpit
Currently in the water on her slip and can be seen by scheduled appointment.
