Can anyone confirm when Riviera started making the Grand Banks 36 in Australia?
I read somewhere that mfg started in 1984 and can't find any reference to this on th Riviera website. I have seen reference also to a "1981 Riviera Grand Banks 36" with twin 130hp Volvos.
Does anyone know what hull construction method was used for this model/year (generally or specifically in Aus.) i.e. solid or sandwich GRP/FRP complete hull or below the waterline? The ones I've seen are sedan, aft cockpit style as they are preferred for the antipodean style of boating (fishing from the cockpit).
Any info about these boats would be very welcome.
Thanks, Grae.
