Offered for sale is a special 1984 Grand Banks Classic 42 foot trawler. Kindred Spirit III has been loved and cared for by the same owners for the past 12 years. During that time, she has been continuously upgraded and maintained in Bristol condition. Her captain, a retired engineer, made it his mission to make her the best 80’s Grand Banks on the water. We believe anyone who examines her will agree that he has achieved his goal.
This trawler is equipped exactly as a serious passage maker would dream.
