1986 15 Sport - had it since 1988. Love that boat.
1978 Grand Banks 42 classic - only had it a year, like it too.
They kind of remind me of each other: old; overbuilt; form in addition to function; each has wood to maintain, chrome / to polish; always having to re-wire or tend to something on the navigation lights, bilge pump, or some system on each boat.
I still get "nice boat" from someone about every time I take the old 15 out.
No real purpose to the pic, just snapped it a minute ago when I had two seconds away from work to grab something off the GB. Both seem to be waiting patiently to hit the water.

I like the fenders on the GB 42. I use that type on my Whaler which is kept in a slip in a very wind area. No worries.

Two beautiful and classic boats there, very nice. They complement each other very well - one a mothership/cruiser and the other a shore runner/fishing boat.

And the 15 BW is a perfect tender to the GB 42

That GB is one of my favorite boats.

Go for it Sal...you might wind up owning it longer than 3 months as 42' boats are hard to sell these days :0)
