Hinckley Introduces Picnic Boat 39

Maine-based boat builder Hinckley Yachts recently released the latest iteration of its iconic picnic boat design, the new Hinckley Picnic Boat 39.
When Hinckley was designing the Picnic Boat 39, the original build and lines were honored, yet the reimagined model features forward seating and a layout perfected for entertaining. The 39 redefines social gatherings, offering three separate but adjoined entertaining areas ideal for hosting friends and family.
With unparalleled access to the foredeck, mooring and docking become effortless endeavors. Crafted with convenience in mind, a smart sliding window mechanism grants effortless access to the foredeck, ensuring smooth transitions around the boat.
The Picnic Boat 39, equipped with Hinckley’s cutting-edge JetStick 4 control system, ensures effortless maneuvering in even the most challenging conditions. JetStick 4 optimizes advanced technology available for simple functionality aboard. At the touch of a button, drop a virtual anchor to hold position anywhere in the world.
Integrated dynamic steering uses fly-by-wire technology to communicate with military hardware. Engaging the new Dockhold feature locks the Hinckley in place while the captain can confidently leave the helm to secure lines on the dock. Improved G-lock will hold the boat’s position and heading while the captain watches the start of that yacht race or the sunset with guests.
The zero draft of a Hinckley allows access to secluded coves and beaches. With the zero draft of jet propulsion, boaters can focus on the moment, not the gear below the waterline.
