2014 Hinckley Yachts Talaria 43

KITE is a stunning example of one of Hinckley's most sought-after models. As one of the finest Talaria 43s on the water, she is impeccably maintained, extensively upgraded, and simply breathtaking. Her impressive list of features includes teak weather decks, a beautifully varnished high-gloss interior, brand-new interior and exterior cushions, and a cutting-edge Starlink system, among many others. With exceptionally low engine hours and a service history that's hard to beat, KITE is a rare opportunity that warrants immediate attention.

Freshly serviced and fully outfitted, she's ready to set off with a new owner for the 2025 season. Added peace of mind comes with her Hinckley Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Silver Level Warranty. The Talaria 43 features a patented innovative glass aft enclosure to the pilothouse that disappears with the touch of a button, converting the heated and air conditioned pilothouse living area into an open extension of the comfortable and well laid out cockpit. A galley-up layout results in great light and visibility and connection to the living area. Below a large master cabin with a centerline queen berth and a second guest cabin share a well laid out head with separate stall shower.

KITE represents one of the most heavily equipped and customized 43s ever built by Hinckley. With her Teak Exterior Decks, Gloss Interior Finish, Custom Woodwork and Cabinetry, Teakwood Interior, Illuminated Bowrail, (9) Underwater Lights - she is a fine example of Hinckley's craftsmanship. Maintained by Hinckley Yacht Services, KITE is ready to go with all of her services up to date and less than 550 original engine hours. A rare offering in this market, she will certainly not last.
