Introduction

Grand Banks built 125 of these 49’ Classics over the years. At 60,000 plus pounds, it is twice the volume of a GB42. Loaded with 750 hp and 1000 gal diesel tanks, it is robust, stable and powerful. The stand-up engine room makes routine checks a pleasure. The Scatra Drive units dampen down vibration. Bronze stanchions and hawse pipes etc. were chrome plated, adding a contemporary look.

In 2006 “Cabaret” underwent an extensive renewal at Delta Marine Services, the authorized Grand Banks Service Centre, and no expense was spared. The result is a thoroughly updated yacht that stands ready for comfortable, reliable, luxurious extended cruising.
