Description: |
This Hinckley 49, is a beautiful, but above all safe and comfortable cruising yacht. A shoal 5'4" draft with the center board up and 10' draft with the board down provides a great deal of versatility for cruising the Great Lakes, Eastern Seaboard, Chesapeake Bay, South Florida and the Keys, the Bahamas, and beyond. The ketch design makes for an easy to manage sail plan while also keeping the mast height low enough for easy transit on the ICW. The H49's beam and full volume has the capacity for plenty of fuel, water, and stores to extend your cruising range and liveaboard comfort. The 140hp Ford Lehman diesel engine should provide power to move the boat at a top end cruising speed of around 9 knots. The center cockpit helm is a comfortable space to operate from with good visibility and seating room for crew and guests. The aft cockpit also has a full enclosure offering pleasant seating with ease of access from the master stateroom. At the moment, she is located in Hilton Head SC and can be inspected/ viewed after appointment. A unique opportunity, must see! |
