1,250 Miles Between Fuel Stops: A Grand Banks 72 Aleutian Is on the Market

A Grand Banks 72 Aleutian is now listed for sale. The builder is Grand Banks, and the model name gives the length: 72 feet. Two Caterpillar C18 diesels sit in the engine room, each rated at 1,015 horsepower. Held at 10 knots, the boat can cover 1,250 miles before it needs fuel. For an owner, that last figure matters most, because it sets how far the boat can go and how often it has to stop. From a Florida dock, that kind of range puts a lot of coastline within reach of a single fuel load. The listing doesn't give an asking price or a naval architect, so we haven't named either.
