Hinckley Yacht Services

The blood money trail: how a war profiteer laundered his wealth through boat manufacturing, brand new hinckley talaria 34 burns due to incompetent design and build..

The brand new Hinckley Talaria 34 was in the middle of three days of sea trials when it was destroyed in a fire .

Founded in 1928 by Henry Hinckley, the brand is on it’s 9th owner. [recently resold in 1979, 1982, 1997,  2001 and 2011].   With each change in ownership, the quality of their work seems to have diminished. 

The Hinckley name, once synonymous with excellence, is now nothing more than a distant memory.

Sadly, the company’s current poor workmanship not only diminishes the brand but also poses a significant danger, with increased risks of fire, explosion, electrocution, injury, and loss of life. The very viability of the company is at stake.

From Warfare to Watercraft: The Dark Legacy of a Weapon Designer turned Boat Company Owner

Hinckley yacht services: a failure of trust and skill.

The craftsman’s have left.  Focused on accounting, the quality of work is life threatening.  Project management is incapable of making decisions. Their approach is inconsistent, neglected, and incompatible with achieving a satisfactory result on a reasonable schedule and budget.

Do you want your boating experience to be “ Man Rescued, Forced To Abandon Burning Sailboat”

“Preventing problems is easier than coping with a 0300 AM catastrophe “.  “It’s much easier to discover and remedy problems in the boatyard than while at sea.  Before every voyage is another chance to prevent potential trouble…Things can go from an easy to fix scenario to an abandon ship crisis in surprisingly short period time .

Hinckley Yacht Services may be the most dishonest boatyard in the USA

It’s always wise to get a second opinion when you have doubts about the honesty of the workmen . We did just that and sought out opinions from some of the most reputable professionals in the marine industry. It likely saved our lives.

With 35 years of service records from the same owner and the same boatyard, as well as professional opinions from experts in the marine business, it’s clear that honesty is an issue at Hinckley Yachts.

In this case, Hinckley Yacht Services failed to take the necessary steps to address the problems presented to them, including developing a plan, setting a direction and establishing priorities.

“The Galley: Fixing what isn’t broken”

During the pre-purchase survey, it was noted that the woodwork in the galley “showed its age,” indicating normal wear and tear for a frequently used boat. However, no wood rot was detected.

Despite this, the General Manager of Hinckley Yacht Service, Daniel Vullemier, insisted that the entire galley of a Hinckley Bermuda 40 needed to be replaced, claiming it was “rotten.” This was not the case, and it seems that Daniel Vullemier’s intentions were driven by greed.

A second independent specialist flown in from a famous New England boatyard, found no wood rot.

A boat builder known for expertise in woodworking should recognize regular wood, unless they were being dishonest.

Example 2: Engine: fraud.

It is not legal for Hinckley Yacht Service to bill for fake tests they only pretended to have done. 

The Engine Hoses May Be New With No Evidence Of Leaks, But It Is More Profitable To Lie

How can Hinckley hope to compete against  honest craftsman and superior technologies 

Hinckley Yacht Services: Incompetence of repair work

70 critically important safety issues involving failures on one boat 

Hinckley Yacht Services is unable to prepare, the boat that made them famous, a Hinckley Bermuda 40 for ocean racing.

Independent experts counted over 70 problems that Hinckley Yacht Service caused or ignored.

Critical safety items, that pose a direct risk of fire, explosion, electrocution, injury, or loss of life.

Important safety issues that may compromise safe operation, the vessel may lose power, lose control or flood as a result of this problem.

Not immediately serious, that may lead to substantial failures and/or repair costs in the future.

• See how Hinckley Yachts fixed their boat

Engine: Fraudulent examination followed by incompetent repairs

 3 decades of love by a single owner summed up the B40’s recent history. Maintained by the same yard and supported with decades of records, which Hinckley had no interest in. The boat had an active season prior to it’s sale.

Against best industry practices, avoiding scientific analysis and without bothering to fully exam the engine. Hinckley Yacht services billed for engine compression tests, they just did not perform them, nor did they send out oil for analysis.

Based on pretty much nothing except greed, Hinckley Yacht Services suggested the engine needed $ 36, 212 in repairs.

Exhaust System:Burn/Fire Hazard.

Neglecting the vitals of the boat to bill on the easy and expensive.  

Independent surveyor:  “The exhaust system is rigidly attached to the engine, while the engine is flexibly mounted. The non-jacketed interface at the exhaust manifold lacks insulation, this is a burn/fire hazard. The exhaust system is jacketed, should the inner jacket leak, seawater will infiltrate the engine’s cylinders. ” 

This system should have been “modernized using a dry riser and water lift muffler”. 

Waiting for the masts to fall in the ocean: Just how bad is Hinckley Yacht Service ?

Most catastrophic failures in sailing can be prevented through proper maintenance and inspection. A well-maintained sailboat should not experience a broken mast, except in extreme weather conditions or when rigging is found to be defective. Sailing can be a safe and enjoyable activity when proper precautions are taken.

The yacht’s chainplates are ferrous steel and rusting; these are known to be a weak point of the Hinckley Bermuda 40s of this era. Hinckley Yacht Services ignored specific written requests to address this issue .  Chain plate below deck armature should have been removed, cleaned, dye checked and inspected. 

Rigging is only as strong as it’s weakest link.

This boat was forced to withdraw from the Annapolis Bermuda race due to the suspect quality of Hinckley Yacht Services work.  

It is important to always ensure that all equipment is in proper working condition before participating in any race, otherwise you are putting myself and others at risk of injury or death.

It’s time to sell Hinckley Yachts

Electrical fires or failure? Simply a question of when.

“Throughout the yacht, DC wiring is oversized and installed in such a manner as to make ongoing maintenance exceedingly difficult.

Branch circuits appear to have been wired with no overall plan

No schematic drawings were evident”

ABOUT HINCKLEY YACHTS

Hinckley yachts epitomize quality and elegance focusing on function, speed, and stamina. The Hinckley name is synonymous with quality, strength, and seaworthiness. Exceptional craftsmanship with a simple, elegant beauty that turns heads at every harbor.

HISTORY OF HINCKLEY YACHTS

Hinckley Yachts began in 1928 in Southwest Harbor, Maine, servicing local lobster boats and yachts owned by summer residents in Mt. Desert Island.  Five years later, founder Henry Hinckley built his first boat, a 36-foot beauty with lines that are still familiar today.

Hinckley’s focus on high standards soon had them designing and fabricating their own hardware, a testament to their desire to produce the highest quality boat possible. The graceful lines and glistening brightwork made these yachts distinctive and that tradition carries on today. While beautiful, these yachts have their foundation based solidly on function giving them strength, stability, and maneuverability in rough seas.

SHIPYARD LOCATION

Currently, Hinckley has eight locations in Maine, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maryland, Georgia, and Florida with over a dozen more authorized service locations worldwide. Production lines range from 34ft /10.36m to 55ft / 16.81m.

RECENT LAUNCHES

Hinckley 35

Hunt Ocean 63

A pioneer in the use of fiberglass boat building, Hinckley began building boats with the material in the 1950s. Fiberglass enabled them to save weight and add strength. An added benefit was that it allowed the boats to retain their sweeping lines that people had come to know and love. Fast forward to 1994 and the same thinking allowed Hinckley to make the switch to using Kevlar and carbon fiber from stern to bow. Unique Hinckley features include JetStick 3, Heading Hold, and Dynamic Steering.

PRODUCTION AND TECHNOLOGY

As one of the first American builders to adopt SCRIMP (Seemann Composites Resin Infusion Molding Process) resin infusion, Hinckley remains a world leader. Additionally, they are the only builder using Carbon and Kevlar composite from bow to stern vacuum infused with epoxy and Hinckley is unique in guaranteeing their hulls and decks for life. This focus on materials and engineering applies to both their motor yachts and their sailing yachts.

Hinckley yachts are powered by water jets for efficiency and maneuverability. Jet propulsion provides unrivaled handling and is considered the best possible mechanical configuration for joystick applications. Hinckley uses jet propulsion, allowing their boats to operate in very shallow areas or water with excessive debris such as lobster pots due to their lack of appendages below the waterline.  Hinckley’s implementation of JetStick 3 brings military-grade GPS hardware and digital processing to their yachts.
