• Sidepower proportional stern & bow thrusters
• Dockmate wireless remote-control system for engines, thrusters and maneuvering
• Allpa electronic engine and transmission controls

• Additional Webasto diesel heater serving the aft deck
• Refurbished underwater hull with complete epoxy treatment system

Accommodation & Interior

The spacious salon offers the classic Grand Banks atmosphere combined with modern comfort. A comfortable L-shaped sofa is complemented by two original Grand Banks swivel armchairs, creating an inviting social area with excellent visibility and natural light.

The salon is equipped with TV, stereo system, Wi-Fi and data connections. A very well-designed L-shaped galley makes for both practical and elegant use, featuring a Gaggenau cooktop and oven together with Isotherm refrigerator/freezer drawers.

Forward is the generous owner’s cabin with direct access to the head and shower compartment. A guest cabin to port offers two comfortable berths.

Flybridge & Exterior

The spacious aft deck provides easy access to the bathing platform and serves as a wonderful outdoor living area. The beautifully crafted staircase with varnished teak details leads to the flybridge.

On the flybridge you find two comfortable helm seats (installed in 2016), a large corner sofa and ample space for additional seating and dining arrangements. Up to eight guests can comfortably enjoy the area underway or at anchor.

The upgraded UMT EX1200 crane and tender storage arrangement further enhance the practicality of the flybridge.

Performance & Handling

Powered by the proven and highly regarded Cummins 6BTA diesel engines (2 x 315 HP) , BONITA delivers the dependable cruising characteristics for which the Grand Banks 42 Europa is renowned.

The addition of Humphree Stabilizers and Humphree Interceptors transforms the cruising experience, providing exceptional comfort, improved efficiency and confident handling in a wide range of sea conditions.

Overall Condition

BONITA presents in a condition rarely encountered on a vessel of this age. Continuous maintenance, substantial upgrades and significant investment by her owner make this a truly outstanding opportunity to acquire one of the last-built Grand Banks 42 Europa models.
