Grand Banks 54

PRACTICAL PERFECTION

The GB54 is a perfect fusion of classic style and modern technology. Its elegant form is sculpted by over sixty years of experience in building luxurious, long-distance cruisers. Its class-leading performance and efficiency rest upon a hull that was inspired by the underwater geometry of ocean racing yachts. Add to this the ingenuity of its ergonomics and you’ll find the GB54 extraordinarily light and spacious yet easy to manage and handle with only one or two pairs of hands on-board.

“AS WE DROPPED INTO THE TROUGH, WE ALL COLLECTIVELY EXPECTED A BONE JARRING CRASH. BUT NOTHING CAME. NOTHING. NO CREAKS, CRACKS, SHAKES OR SHIMMIES. JUST A VERY SOLID RIDE BENEATH OUR FEET!”
CAPTAIN TOM SERIO, LAKELAND BOATING MAGAZINE

GO FURTHER FOR LESS

The hydrodynamics of our proprietary V-Warp hull create a unique combination of speed, stability and fuel economy.

The warped, semi-displacement form is inspired by the design of ocean racing yachts and flares amidships to roll the seas away from the hull.

This feature maximizes buoyancy and lift while a transom deadrise of 8 degrees helps the 54 achieve class-leading speeds by reducing resistance to the water. There’s no more efficient yacht in its class.

INVISIBLE BEAUTY

Gorgeous as she is from any angle, the true beauty of the GB54 lies in the hidden virtues of her construction.

Virtually all parts of the vessel are vacuum infused in epoxy vinylester to reduce weight while adding strength and durability. The bulkheads and salon furniture are fused to the hull to increase rigidity as are the deck and superstructure which are formed in carbon fiber to enhance structural stability.

The result is a semi-monocoque construction that won’t shake or rattle even when the seas are rolling.

MAKING IT EASY TO TAKE IT EASY

How do we achieve a magical combination of thrills and relaxation? It comes down to control. The GB54 is a high-performance motor yacht that always lets you set the pace – cruise gently to your destination or open her up and cut through the seas with ease.

Either way, the systems and ergonomics of our design have evolved over the years to ensure that handling of the boat is remarkably simple, stress free and requires minimal assistance.
