1999 Hinckley 36 Downeast

1999 Hinckley Picnic Boat 36 Classic – Yanmar Diesel | Jet Drive | Sportfishing Ready | Trailer Included
 
For sale is a stunning and highly customized 1999 Hinckley Picnic Boat 36 Classic, freshly repainted and newly re-powered with a low hour rebuilt Yanmar 6LY2A-STP 420HP diesel engine. This iconic Hinckley Picnic Boat has been fully upgraded for both cruising and light sportfishing, offering unmatched versatility and timeless New England style in a premium Downeast-style yacht.
 
Known for their handcrafted quality, Hinckley Yachts are considered the gold standard in American boatbuilding. The Picnic Boat 36 combines luxury, performance, and shallow water capability in one elegant package. This particular hull stands out with its recent Awlgrip hull repaint, fully documented engine rebuild, and a custom fishing package including brand-new outriggers, a rocket launcher, and a triple-axle aluminum trailer.
Power is delivered through a Hamilton 291 waterjet drive, paired with Hinckley’s JetStick® joystick control and a Vetus bow thruster, allowing precise handling and stress-free docking in any conditions. With a draft under 2 feet, this Hinckley 36 can explore skinny water, sandbars, and backcountry flats that are off-limits to traditional inboard cruisers or outboard center consoles.
 
The upgraded cockpit layout offers both seating for entertaining and practical rigging space for light tackle or trolling. Below deck, you’ll find Hinckley’s signature high-gloss cherry interior, a comfortable V-berth, a galley with a Force 10 propane cooktop, pressurized freshwater system, and an enclosed head with a VacuFlush marine toilet. The teak decking, refinished brightwork, and tasteful accents make this boat feel nearly new throughout.
 
This is a rare opportunity to own one of the only Hinckley Picnic Boats with fishing functionality on the market today. Whether you're looking for a jet-drive diesel cruiser, a luxury dayboat, or a shallow draft yacht for the Bahamas, Florida Keys, or the ICW, this vessel checks all the boxes.
