Innovative Solutions to Simplify Every Journey


Over 90 years ago, the first Hinckley yachts took to the waters of Southwest Harbor, Maine. They quickly gained a reputation for incredible strength, seaworthiness, and—rare then as now—exceptional craftsmanship with beautifully elegant lines that turn heads in every harbor. Today, Hinckley remains at the forefront of integrating the latest technologies, and the new Picnic Boat 39 lives up to that promise. 

Innovation To Ease-Every Journey

 

Control and Precision

The Picnic Boat 39, equipped with Hinckley’s state-of-the-art JetStick 4® control system, offers effortless maneuvering in even the most challenging conditions. JetStick 4® utilizes advanced technology to provide simple functionality on board. With just the touch of a button, you can drop a virtual anchor to hold your position anywhere in the world.

The integrated dynamic steering system uses fly-by-wire technology to communicate with military-grade hardware. Our new Dockhold feature locks your Hinckley in place, allowing you to confidently leave the helm to secure lines at the dock. Additionally, the improved G-lock holds your position and heading while you enjoy the start of a yacht race or watch the sunset with your guests.

Effortless Control and Precision

Zero Draft


The Zero Draft of a Hinckley allows you to escape to secluded beaches in the Abacos, empty coves in Maine, and anywhere in between. Whether you're cruising at 36 knots on open water or navigating in just 36 inches of water in a hidden cove, a Hinckley feels right at home. Unlike typical running gear or IPS drives, which protrude beyond the centerline keel and can distract you while underway, the Zero Draft's jet propulsion keeps your focus on the deep-V design. This means you can concentrate on enjoying the moment rather than worrying about the gear below the waterline.
