Presenting a 1998 Grand Banks 43 Eastbay Flybridge

She's currently en route to Stuart, Florida, where she will be available for inspection, with some work to be completed and updated to her new owner's tastes.

"Tatoosh" is powered by twin Caterpillar 420hp freshwater-cooled diesels that have just completed their 1,000-hour/5-year major Caterpillar service. This comprehensive service included removal and servicing of the heat exchangers, aftercoolers, gear and oil coolers, complete OEM raw water pumps on both engines, and full service throughout. The mechanical investment has been made — the next owner steps aboard a boat with fresh power. She also has a fresh bottom job, hull sides polished & waxed, some brightwork done, and ready for her next owners to complete the remaining work and updating.

She is equipped with a Fischer-Panda generator in a sound enclosure to run all AC systems independently of shore power, ensuring owners and guests remain comfortable at anchor or away from the dock. Additional systems include two AC/heat units, a fully equipped galley, an inverter, a water maker, and a hydraulic dinghy lift on the transom.

This is an exceptional opportunity to own a classic Down East Grand Banks Eastbay 43 Flybridge with all heavy maintenance professionally addressed, her systems working, and some cosmetic things still needed. Priced to sell and ready for her next chapter — contact us today for additional details.
