Description
The Hinckley Bermuda 40 is one of the classic yachts designs in American boat building history. Robyn’s Nest has benefited from a number of upgrades under her current owner and is now ready for her next steward.
This sloop-rigged B40 has been repowered with a new Nanni diesel engine with less than 50 hrs. In addition, a newer pair of Lewmar electric winches, new paint and nonskid on deck, updated interior cushions and Garmin electronics. While there may be some additional updating for the next owner, she has already received what can be considered a good head-start towards a full refit.

Decks repainted in high glass white with cream non-skid in 2023
