About Grand Banks Yachts

Semi-custom

The long-range cruiser marque that began as American Marine in Hong Kong in the 1950s and launched the Grand Banks 36 in 1965 — eight carbon-infused V-Warp models from the Eastbay 44 to the 26.6-metre Grand Banks 85, built in Pasir Gudang, Malaysia and sold factory-direct from Stuart, Florida under ocean-racing champion Mark Richards.

The Grand Banks story began some seventy years ago in Hong Kong, where Robert Newton, an American expatriate managing a soft-drink bottling plant on a street called Mok Cheong -- 'factory that works on wood' -- suggested to his sons John and Whit, though already in his late fifties and with no marine background, that they build boats on the lot where the company's trucks parked. By 1962 the enterprise had moved to Junk Bay and, as American Marine, was building heavy sailboats and big motor yachts; the first Grand Banks 36 hit the water in 1965 and made the marque a pioneer of long-range cruising. Production moved to Malaysia in 1995, and under the ocean-racing champion Mark Richards, CEO and chief designer, the current range with its V-WARP hulls and carbon construction has reinvented the icon while keeping its heritage of style, luxury and extended cruising.
