We tracked down the inside scoop on what boatbuilders are up to next.

The Grand Banks Aleutian 55 RP may bear a resemblance to her forebear, the well-loved 53 of the same series, but Earl G. Alfaro, Grand Banks’ product development manager, points out that you would be remiss if you mistook them for the same boat. He noted that the 55’s aft deck is noticeably larger than the 53’s, and also that the boat will have a more modern interior than any other Grand Banks—though more traditional styling is, of course, available. Lastly, her hull has been refined to be more efficient underway and quieter at anchor.
