TANGO - 2003 29' 2" HINCKLEY Talaria 29 R
Portsmouth Rhode Island United States
$249,900 USD

TANGO is a rare, impeccably maintained Hinckley Talaria 29 Runabout, distinguished by her exceptionally low hours and exclusive freshwater history. Stored indoors each winter as part of Hinckley’s premier Winter JetBoat Program and kept on a covered lift in a boathouse during the brief summer season in upstate New York, TANGO has been spared the harsh effects of sun and salt exposure. As a result, she shows virtually no signs of age.

This stunning Talaria 29R was recently upgraded with a classic navy-style Bimini top, complemented by Isinglass side curtains and a custom mooring cover for the aft cockpit—offering both style and protection.

Key Features:

• Fresh water boat that lives on a lift in a boathouse

• Maintained in heated indoor storage with Hinckley Yacht Services

• All seasonal mechanical and cosmetic services to be performed at Hinckley

• Highway trailer
