Bonum Vitae—Latin for “the Good Life”—has become one of the most popular vessels in our fleet over the years, with many returning guests specifically seeking her out for extended cruising. Her appeal comes not only from her comfortable layout, but from the consistent attention she has received from owners who have meticulously cared for her and invested in thoughtful upgrades season after season.
What makes Bonum Vitae especially distinctive is that she is a custom-built Grand Banks 52 Motoryacht—essentially built on the proven Grand Banks 49 platform, but with the added functionality of a cockpit, creating a rare layout that is likely unique within the Grand Banks fleet. That added cockpit changes how the boat lives on the water, offering easier tender access, more flexibility at anchor, and additional usable outdoor space.
Inside, the full-beam master stateroom with king-size berth creates a private retreat, while two additional guest cabins comfortably accommodate family or friends. The salon is spacious and bright, and the galley is well arranged for extended time aboard.
Outside, the covered aft deck, expansive sundeck, and flybridge provide multiple gathering spaces. Twin Caterpillar diesels, stabilizers, bow thruster, water-maker, and Starlink internet make Bonum Vitae exceptionally capable for comfortable, connected cruising.
Book Bonum Vitae and experience why she continues to be a fleet favorite.
