DISCOVERY is a 2010 Hinckley Picnic Boat MKIII that represents the potential of one of the most popular models in the Hinckley product line.  The Picnic Boat MKIII combines traditional aesthetics in her beautiful lines and stunning craftsmanship with modern design and materials such as her powered pilothouse windows and overhead hatches, and a modern hull designed for exceptional rough-water performance.  DISCOVERY was built by an experienced yachtsman who was very involved in the build and added many well thought out custom touches and upgrades throughout such as the wrap around settees in the pilothouse and completely enclosable stern cockpit Bimini with zip-in Eisenglass windows for extended cruising or inclement weather.  The boat has been meticulously maintained by a Hinkley service dealer.
