43' Hinckley H-43 Sloop

43' Hinckley H-43 Sloop

This rare Hinckley 43 has enjoyed the benefit of a knowledgeable owner who has spared no expense on upgrading systems and racing equipment. She is as beautiful as she is fast, and is not only built with the legendary Hinckley elegance and strength, but is also sure to be in the front of the pack when racing. A wonderful combination of form and function. Recent upgrades since 2002 include wet sanded race bottom, new portlights, new hatches, new rod rigging, new furler, new Quantum cruising and racing sails, new electronics, and new refrigeration (to name a few).
