Description

A RARE WAY TO OWN ONE

Asking: $799,000 · 3-year lease with purchase option

Three years aboard, interest-free — then she’s yours

Donated to Maine Maritime Academy, “Incorrigible” is offered at $799,000, structured as a three-year lease with an option to purchase. In practical terms, you step aboard one of the most coveted boats in American yachting now, spread the cost across three seasons with no interest, and exercise the purchase option at the end of the three-year term — in effect, three years of interest-free financing on one of yachting’s blue-chip names. Your acquisition supports the Academy’s mission as well. Full lease and option terms are available on request.

THE VESSEL

The boat that created a category

When Hinckley launched the original Picnic Boat in 1994, it invented an entirely new class of yacht — the modern downeast daycruiser. Built by hand in Maine to the most exacting standards in the industry, the Picnic Boat became the most recognizable and coveted boat of its kind in America. The 37 MKIII is the fully evolved expression of that idea.

This is hull No. 2 of the MKIII — a first-year example of the generation that gave the Picnic Boat twin engines, a new deeper-vee hull, and a roomier, more refined layout while keeping the timeless lines intact. Beneath the satin-varnished cherry and varnished-teak soles sits Hinckley’s DualGuard composite hull: a Kevlar and E-glass outer skin over a carbon-fiber inner skin and balsa core, built to 150% of the ISO offshore standard. And the propulsion — the heart of every Hinckley — is twin Hamilton waterjets: no props or shafts, a draft of just over two feet, and the patented JetStick. She will nose onto a beach, idle safely among swimmers, and pivot in her own length at the dock.

HIGHLIGHTS

What sets this hull apart

– Hull No. 2. A first-year example of the 37 MKIII — the most successful new model Hinckley ever launched, and an early, significant hull in the lineage of America’s most iconic daycruiser.

– The Yanmar repower. Repowered with twin Yanmar 8LV-370 V8 diesels (approx. 800 hrs) — not merely more power than the standard twin Volvo 300s, but the exact package Hinckley later adopted and markets as the best-driving Picnic Boat ever built. Fresh turbochargers fitted October 2025.

– Docking, mastered. JetStick 2 joystick control plus a wireless Yacht Controller — believed to be the only Picnic Boat 37 so equipped. Berth her single-handed from anywhere on deck, remote in hand.

PROPULSION & PERFORMANCE

Twin Yanmar 8LV-370, twin waterjets

– Twin Hamilton waterjets — mounted above the keel and protected from grounding; no exposed running gear.

– JetStick 2 with HoverLock virtual anchoring and heading hold, plus a wireless Yacht Controller.

– Performance: approximately 32 knots cruise and a top end in the mid-30s; just over two feet of draft.

– Recently serviced at Hinckley Yacht Service, Stuart FL (October 2025, new turbochargers); waterjets scheduled for service June 2026.

ACCOMMODATION & LIVING

A day boat with a weekend in her

Hinckley’s signature woodwork throughout — satin-varnished cherry, varnished-teak soles, and a calm, handcrafted feel no one else quite matches. All brightwork varnish was renewed in March 2026.

Pilothouse & Cockpit

Facing settees with a drop-leaf table under the hardtop and a pair of Stidd helm chairs that swivel to face aft, in refit ultrasuede upholstery. A new polycarbonate enclosure extends the season, and electrically operated overhead hatches bring in light and air. One step down, the open cockpit offers fore- and aft-facing seating and a transom door to the swim platform, with new teak decking in both the pilothouse and cockpit.

Cabin, Galley & Head

A forward V-berth cabin finished in varnished cherry makes a comfortable retreat for an overnight or a weekend away. The galley sits to port off the companionway and a private head to starboard, fitted with a new Tecma electric toilet. Generator (recently replaced, low hours) and air conditioning provide comfort at anchor.
