Construction Hull and Deck

At the time of construction and as is the case today, Hinckley is a leader in fiberglass and composite construction. The B40's were laminated in Southwest Harbor with a solid fiberglass hull reinforced with additional laminations in high stress areas. The deck and superstructure are cored for added stiffness and weight reduction. The deck is set on a robust 6" inward flange which is molded into the hull, glassed and thru-bolted to form a strong permanent hull to deck joint. Nonskid pattern is molded into the deck.
