Grand Banks Repairs
All boats have predicted repairs that need to be made and it varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Since we have been dealing with Grand Banks so long, we know which things are going to fail at some point. Also, we can determine which items are likely to fail on survey when your Grand Banks is for sale.
The lazarette hatches on Grand Banks are subject to water pentration. We see it all the time. We have developed ways to draw the moisture out and reseal but we recommend building new hatches.
We see damaged swim platforms on Grand Banks a lot. We can repair minor damage but recommend replacement for major damage. Our replacements are much better made and sturdier than OEM.
All painted aluminum will eventually corrode. Masts and booms are especially prone since they have holes bored for electronics and brackets that allow water to penetrate. We paint lots of masts every year.
