Some only have the upper helm, without the lower.
It ain't fun in weather, to only operate from the upper.
It is nice to operate from the lower in heat, then you are in air conditioning. Or cold then you are in heat, or in the rain, then you ain't wet.

Is this a Grand Banks?

Hey BananaTom! Right you are....lower and flybridge helms; full nav. instruments on both. I insist on natural asp. Lehmann diesels, 8kt cruise, 6g/h burn. Must have good AC, ice maker, grill, dingy w/outboard, etc. and yes, this is the Grand Banks 42, 2 staterooms/ 2 heads.

I love a Grand Banks. A guy bought one in Fairhope, AL and needed to get it to Destin, FL, and did not know how to operate it. So my wife and I crewed, while he watched and learned during the 12 hour ride.

We got on board and he did not even know how to start it. So it took me two hours to learn the systems. Man that thing had range, it held allot of fuel.

The details of the workmanship in a Grand Banks is aweome. The one we were on even had a "Marble Bath Tub" in the master stateroom.

It sweet!!

Buy that puppy and now your ready for a Florida vacation in style!!!
