BUY, SELL AND TRADE TRAWLERS AND TRAWLERING GEAR
View all threadsOffered up for sale is a special 1984 Grand Banks Classic 42 ft. Trawler. Kindred Spirit III has been loved and cared for by the same owners for the past 12 years. During that time, she has been continuously upgraded and maintained in “Bristol” condition. Her Captain is a retired engineer who has made his mission to “make her the best 80’s Grand Banks on the water”. We believe anyone who examines her will agree that he has achieved his goal.
This Trawler is equipped exactly as a serious “Passagemaker” would dream of:
Two Ford-Lehman SP 135 engines
Updated Twin-Disc transmissions
Westerbeke 8kw Genset
Updated 12 volt refrigerator and freezer systems (the most energy efficient available)
Three updated Cruise Air reverse cycle A/C units
Centerline queen berth in the aft cabin
Galley with peninsula counter and built in microwave
Updated upholstery and curtains made with Sunbrella fabrics
Recent professionally installed custom made full enclosure on flybridge utilizing the best
materials and exhibiting exceptional workmanship
Brightwork which always receives accolades from other boaters
Updated GARMIN Autopilot system with wireless remote
Wi-fi booster system
Extraordinary condition which makes her appear much younger than her age
This vessel is not a “project boat”, but one that is up-to-date and ready to be enjoyed by its new owner. She is a classic beauty that was at the top of her class when built, and through dedication to her long-term care, remains there today.
