Perhaps the most eloquent expression of the Hinckley power yacht, the Talaria 44 Jet is a stately presence in waters from Monaco to Maine. Her lines, drawn by Bruce King, are a study in the vernacular of Down East nautical design. Yet beneath her old-world elegance lies the newest, most advanced boat-building technologies. Her hull uses Kevlar and carbon fiber as part of Hinckley`s innovative DualGuard composite construction. Twin 440 hp diesels and a jet propulsion system accelerate the T44 to a cruising speed of 26 knots with a top speed of 32 knots. JetStick, Hinckley`s computer-integrated steering system, allows precision, one-touch control in all maneuvers. With a mere 27-inch draft, unheard of in a boat of her size and capabilities, the T44 Jet rewards owners with that rarest of yachting pleasures - a peaceful anchorage, far from crowded deep-water harbors and marinas. Cruising range is 340 nautical miles, putting plenty of distance between passengers and civilization. Two versions of the interior plan are available with the T44. Each greets owners with woods that reveal the respect for detail held by Hinckley craftsman. Each provides comfortable seating, sleeping and dining areas, a U-shaped galley, a full head and separate shower, and abundant storage space.
