Steering System
Joystick Control VESSEL WALKTHROUGH

The Picnic Boat EP is the very successful evolution of the original Hinckley Picnic Boat Classic and adds more seating and space under cover in the pilothouse as well as a wet bar in the cockpit areas.  It is the perfect boat for a day on the water with family or a weekend away for a couple.  A combination of classic traditional aesthetics, modern design and materials come together in an elegant simplicity.  Her shallow draft and fingertip control allow easy control in close quarters and great performance underway.
