Yacht Description
Classic Hinckley, updated. NORTHERN STAR is a 76ft Hinckley sailing yacht built in 1993 and refit in 2024, delivering that traditional teak-and-mahogany look without the “we haven’t touched a thing since the 90s” reality.
Sleeps six, sensibly. Accommodation is for up to 6 guests, with a forward primary cabin with a queen berth and en-suite, a VIP with twin beds and en-suite, plus additional single berths for flexible family or mixed-group layouts. Not a floating hotel. A proper sailing yacht.
Easy days on deck. Air conditioning keeps the interior comfortable, while the bimini and an outdoor shower make the swim-to-sundeck loop simple. There’s also Wi‑Fi, a TV, and an indoor audio system for downtime that does not require a group vote.
Water time included. Get off the boat quickly with an 11ft/3.5m Zodiac tender (20hp), then rotate through paddleboards, snorkelling equipment, towable toys, and an inflatable water toy. Light fishing gear is onboard for anyone who likes their “relaxing” with a rod in hand.
