    Oh man that is gorgeous. If I were looking for a cruiser that sounds like a perfect combination to me. Where do you usually take her out? Also, do you happen to have any interior pics? For some reason I have a mild obsession with boats interiors. Incan easily kill an hour combing boat trader looking at pics. Something about the attention to detail and the efficiency of space utilization.

    Very nice! Boats, at least bigger cruisers and sportys, haven't gotten prettier during modern times. There's something about a classic boat that just works. And with a modern power upgrade you really do have the best of both.

    Don't have any good interior pics actually, I can take a few. Here is a pic with the curtain between the pilot house and the outside space down in "sunset cruise" configuration. I photoshopped the name off, so the transom looks weird.

    This boat is so great, in the range it is right in the middle at 40 feet. I think it is the perfect size and perfect ratio of interior to exterior space and it is now out of production. I think only about 80 were made. There is no such thing (I don't think) as a collectible boat, but if there were, I think this would be one of them.

    They're beautiful boats for sure. I've been looking for a deal on a nice 36' picnic for awhile now...

    Just gorgeous. I can't imagine a better setting for a sunset cruise. Well done!

    Rigged a 13' Whaler for a tender on my boat this AM. What could possibly go wrong getting that lifted into place? it will be nice to have though.

    Very nice! I might suggest getting some kind of pad attached to protect your boat from that outboard that is bound to bang it to your boat sooner or later.

    It's got a pad.
    Pretty fun little boat. Beats the snot out of you but runs about 30MPH with 3 people in it. Feels like about 130mph.

    Gorgeous lines on the Hinckleys. Stunning! The beauty is that they are all custom. Enjoy.

    Posted on a few months ago when I bought the boat but finally have a picture with it rigged with the tender and so on. Just finished the first long trip through the Exumas. Rough weather on the way there and smooth as I've ever seen it coming back yesterday. The boat ran like a champ. No issues, knock on wood.

    Great looking boat. Those 12 cylinder diesels are impressive.

    Looks like a really cool trip.

    I commissioned this to be built early summer. It arrived yesterday. The company sent an employee to personally deliver it. It is almost 6 feet long and all engine. Full carbon fiber hull with gelcoat. I've never seen its equal. May have a new full scale ski bboat (Nautique G21) coming this spring. I'm going to talk to a boat lift dealer this afternoon and doing a test-drive tomorrow. In the meantime, this r/c should be a ton of fun.

    Good of them to drop it from 31 to 30, so you can pick up a nice inside mooring there. :)

    This is an awesome boat. I love the low 30's Tiara's with cummins. Good in rough enough weather, good on fuel and easy to take care of.

    Hope your boat is working out well.

    Mark, You are correct in that Hinckley Boats over the decades have held their value like no other boat. The timeless styling and tremendous quality make it the best of breed.

    Google: Tilt-Shift :) Special lenses where the optical planes can be shifted. To some extent, that effect can be reproduced with Photoshop etc.
