The Hinckley Picnic 36 EP is perhaps the most iconic Downeast jet boat of all time, with classic looks and modern performance wrapped in a quality fit and finish. This EP benefited from a highly experienced serial yacht owner who has spared no expense on maintenance and upgrades, as evidenced by the notable highlights and spec sheet below. Competitively priced and fresh out of a Winter yardwork period at Hinckley SWH which notably included replacing the notoriously problematic original fuel tanks. She is turnkey and ready for her next owner to splash for the Summer.
