Grand Banks 62 Debuts in Palm Beach

During the Palm Beach International Boat Show, Grand Banks debuted its new Grand Banks 62 long-range cruiser.

“There is simply no other long-range cruising design on the water like this new Grand Banks,” says CEO Mark Richards. “The principles you’ll see in the Grand Banks 62 define the 60 series, and indeed our entire range. Less weight. More strength. Less fuel burn. More range. More speed, less resistance, and of course all this means more efficiency, resulting in lower emissions.”

Based on initial sea trials at its launch, the Grand Banks 62 achieves a top speed of 30 knots, and a has high cruise speed of 27 knots. At 20 knots, the total burn rate is 38 gph. A range of 2,000 nautical miles with 10% reserve is achieved at 10 knots.

Standard power is twin Volvo D13s, rated at 900- hp each on straight shafts, with Twin Disc MGX 5096A marine transmissions. The model is available as a Flybridge or Skylounge configuration.
