Grand Banks 44 Eastbay
Grand Banks has been building classic cruisers for more than 60 years, and in that time we’ve learned a thing or two about crafting the ideal cruiser. The Eastbay 44 is the sleek, modernized evolution of our classic downeast line, which has everything you need—and nothing you don’t. Clean, classic lines are accentuated by the beautiful teak interior and impeccable craftsmanship of the three-stateroom layout. Overnight accommodations for 6 people and entertaining space for more make the EB44 the ideal family cruiser. The wide, full-beam salon and cockpit feature large electric windows that invite in cool summer breezes, and a traditional deep-v hull achieves a fast, smooth and dry ride that also allows for tight maneuverability, making docking a dream.

“The 44 came through with flying colors, thanks not only to her perfectly balanced, true tracking, full-keeled, deep-V hull form, but also to the exceptionally responsive electric steering”

More About the Grand Banks 44 Eastbay
“What makes this new Eastbay an ideal near-coastal explorer? Start with her performance and ride. Owners can cruise for out in the Bahamas or up the Inside Passage at 20-plus knots. Speed allows you to rn from poor weather, and to go beyond the beaten path in less time. This adventure yacht hits 42.7 knots wide open, and at a cruising speed of 22 knots, the Eastbay has a range of 433 nautical miles with a 10 percent reserve. Bump her down to 17.5 knots, and your range climbs to about 475 nautical miles. No worries if you run into some challenging seas. The 44 Eastbay SX rides a deep-vee C. Raymond Hunt-designed hull.
She’s built with high-end materials – the latest Eglass vinylester and epoxy resins, stitched multitaxial fabrics and lightweight linear foam. The light yet strong construction gives her longer legs and solid fuel efficiency.”
