According to Barry J White the pub was originally the "Foy Boat" but cannot confirm this assumption, he also suggests the building was combined with the "Duke's Head" in 1878 to become the "Grand Hotel." The Isle of Thanet Williams Directory of 1849 describes this as a Family and Commercial Hotel opposite the jetty that was also operating as a wine, spirit, ale and porter merchant. There seems to be some sort of overlap with licensee William Hudson, so I will assume it was he that either changed the name or amalgamated the two pubs into one.
