Design 1965 Hinckley 38

The Hinckley 38 was developed in 1968. It is sometimes referred to as the Pilot 38, although not its official name. Its a great boat. One can clearly see some trademark Hinckley features coming into their model lineup such as the identifiable side glass. The boat is built of fiberglass. I believe it is the first Hinckley to be built with separate rudder (and trim tab). Also note the auxiliary diesel completely below the cabin sole.

The production run was short, lasting from 1968-1970, with 28 boats built.

Here are the plans.


Its a nice shape. Here are the Lines.
