The Hinckley Company is a builder of sailboats and luxury motor yachts. Rooted in Maine’s maritime heritage, Hinckley’s core values are innovation, service, and performance. Hinckley motorboats made advancements in the yachting industry with the launch of the Picnic Boat in 1994.
In 1928, Benjamin B. Hinckley established Hinckley Yachts in Southwest Harbor, Maine. Henry Hinckley, Benjamin’s son, took over the company in 1932. By 1980, Henry’s son, Bob Hinckley, was running the company along with his business partner, Sheap McKenney.
During the 1940s, Hinckley built close to 500 motor vessels for the United States government to use in World War II. In the late 1980s, Hinckley made a drastic shift from sail to power, launching the Talaria 39, an iconic Downeast-style motorboat. On the mission for a lighter vessel with a smooth ride, Hinckley was the first American yacht builder to convert from fiberglass to Kevlar in 1991.
