The margin confirmed Guernsey's current dominance of inter-insular rugby, following on from last weekend's 62-26 victory against Jersey, the first away win for Guernsey since 2007.
Like last week, most of the work was done in the second half, as at half-time the margin was 7-0.
Guernsey's women beat Jersey 13-12, reversing the 2021 result the week before, when Jersey ran out easy winners 40-0.
In the other big sporting fixture of the weekend, football's Muratti Vase, Jersey beat Guernsey 1-0 at Springfield Stadium.
