Grand Banks 49 Classic Walkthrough

Boarding begins at the teak swim platform, where a transom gate leads directly into the aft deck. From here, wide and secure side decks guide you forward on either side, offering excellent footing and handholds — classic Grand Banks practicality at its best. To port, two steps lead up to the trunk cabin and flybridge access, while continuing forward brings you to either of the salon’s side deck entry doors.

Entering through the port salon door, the layout immediately feels intuitive and welcoming. Aft to port sits the entertainment center with a built-in bench seat, while the companionway to the full-beam master stateroom is tucked discreetly aft. To starboard, wrap-around seating surrounds a teak table, creating a comfortable gathering space that feels equally suited for casual evenings or formal dining. Forward to starboard you’ll find an icemaker cabinet, a second side deck door, and the lower helm, while the galley is positioned forward to port — open, functional, and well integrated into the salon.

Moving forward and down a few steps brings you to the guest accommodations. To starboard is the guest head with a tub/shower, across from the port guest stateroom. Continuing forward leads to the forward guest stateroom, completing a layout that offers privacy, comfort, and excellent separation between owner and guest spaces.

Headroom is impressive throughout, with approximately 6’8” in the salon, nearly 7’ in the forward guest stateroom, and a full 7’ in the master stateroom — a detail that matters during extended stays aboard.

Grand Banks 49 Classsic Accommodations

The full-beam master stateroom aft is the standout, offering a centerline king-size berth, ensuite head, and a separate shower.

The guest head with tub and shower is conveniently located to starboard, easily accessible from both guest cabins.

This arrangement works exceptionally well for cruising couples, families, or those who regularly entertain guests aboard.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Salon

The salon is bright, open, and unmistakably Grand Banks. Large windows flood the space with natural light, while teak and holly soles, built-in seating, and thoughtful storage reinforce the yacht’s traditional roots. Side deck doors on both port and starboard provide outstanding ventilation and easy access while docking.

A television and bench seating are positioned aft to port, while the wrap-around seating and folding (hi-lo) table to starboard create a versatile social space. Forward, the desk area adds functionality for those who work or plan passages aboard. Engine room access is conveniently located, and the overall flow from salon to galley and helm feels natural and unforced.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Galley

Located forward to port, the galley is perfectly positioned for both entertaining and underway use. It features a Princess Ceran three-burner cooktop, 2 Sea Frost cold-plate refrigerators and freezer, a Sharp Carousel convection microwave, and double stainless-steel sinks. Storage is abundant, with well-placed cabinets, drawers, and a dedicated spice rack.

Additional conveniences include a Seagull IV filtered water system, a U-Line icemaker in the salon, a wine cooler in the master stateroom (which is also power and plumbing ready for a washer/dryer,) and a pantry located in the forward guest companionway. For outdoor cooking, a Magma stainless steel BBQ grill is mounted on the trunk cabin.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Dining

Dining aboard Cinsubar II is flexible and comfortable, with seating available at the salon table as well as on the flybridge. Whether hosting guests inside or enjoying meals al fresco, the boat offers multiple inviting options.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Master Stateroom

Aft, the full-beam master stateroom is a true owner’s retreat. The centerline king-size berth is flanked by nightstands and reading lights, while teak and holly soles and abundant cabinetry create a warm, refined atmosphere. A hatch provides direct access to the aft deck, and opening side windows offer excellent ventilation.

The space includes a vanity/desk area, a walk-in closet forward to starboard, built-in shelving, and a flat-screen TV. The ensuite head is thoughtfully separated from the shower, offering privacy and comfort typically reserved for much larger yachts.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Forward Guest Stateroom

The forward guest stateroom features an island queen berth, overhead hatch with screen, opening side windows, and generous storage throughout. Two hanging lockers, drawers, and cabinetry make this a comfortable space for extended stays. A full-length mirror and teak and holly sole complete the space, while easy access to the guest head enhances usability.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Port Guest Stateroom

The port guest stateroom offers a double-size berth, hanging locker, storage drawers, bookshelf, and a built-in bench seat. An overhead hatch provides light and ventilation, and a three-quarter mirror adds to the feeling of space. This cabin works beautifully as a guest room or flexible multi-use cabin.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Lower Helm

The lower helm is positioned forward to starboard in the salon, offering excellent visibility and immediate access to side decks. It is fully equipped with Garmin electronics, bow and stern thruster controls, electronic engine controls, stabilizer controls, trim tabs, windlass operation, searchlight control, and the Grand Banks alarm panel — all laid out with clarity and purpose.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Flybridge

The flybridge is a standout feature, offering teak decking, a bimini with three-sided Eisenglass enclosure, and outstanding sightlines. Seating includes Lebroc helm and mate seats, aft-facing bench seating on both sides, and an L-shaped settee with a teak table to starboard aft. Storage is plentiful beneath seating and within the console, and the hinged mast base adds versatility for bridge clearance.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Trunk Cabin & Aft Deck

The trunk cabin provides substantial storage, teak steps leading to both the main deck and flybridge, and houses the stainless steel Magma BBQ grill. Aft, the deck features a boarding gate, bench seating, lazarette access, and a hot and cold freshwater shower — an ideal setup for swimmers and dockside living alike.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Systems, Power & Performance

Cinsubar II is powered by twin Lugger (Komatsu) 460 HP main engines with ZF gearboxes and electronic controls. The port engine was rebuilt following a stabilizer-related incident, and the mechanical space is clean, organized, and well equipped with a workbench, sink, and storage.

Stabilization is provided by a Wesmar system with remote control, while Side-Power bow and stern thrusters — complete with wireless remote — make close-quarters handling remarkably easy. A Northern Lights 20 kW generator, Mastervolt inverter/charger, Glendinning Cablemaster, multiple chargers, and extensive LED lighting support comfortable cruising and extended time away from the dock.

Climate control is handled by multiple reverse-cycle air conditioning and heating units, ensuring year-round comfort.

Grand Banks 49 Classic Tender & Safety
