OTHER GRAMPIAN BUILT BOATS
Have you ever heard of a Grampian power boat? I seem to have one, according to the manufacturers tag. This boat is approximately 17.5 feet in length, a beam of about 6.5 feet, right hand steer, Volvo B18 4 cyl power, 170 leg and external fresh water cooling. The id tag begins with the usual 0, but with no other production numbers following stamped on it. Is this boat a prototype, or perhaps custom built by one of the employees for personal use?
Anyone have any knowledge of this or similar boats? Contact Webmaster.
This photo (10 years old) is claimed to be of a 1964, 37' Grampian yawl. A broker says that the seller called it a "Walthrop", but no one else has heard of this model.
Can you provide any information about her? She was called "En Avant", and based out of Norfolk for the past 20 years or so. She's supposed to have won a Bermuda race or two in her time, but owner can't find any corroboration. Contact Webmaster
I found a picture on your site (see above) and it looks just like my classic 37' (boatyard shot in the attachment). My boat, however, is a cutter. Is there any reason to believe it's anything but a classic 37, aside from the broker's assertion of it being a 'Walthrop'?
