The Hinckley Bermuda 402, often referred to as the Mark II, represents the midevolution of perhaps the most iconic American production sailing yacht ever conceived. Designed by the legendary William H. Tripp Jr. and introduced as a successor to the original 1959 model, the Bermuda 402 maintains the classic aesthetic of the "Downeast" aesthetic while incorporating refinements in rig and ballast that define the middle era of its extraordinary 32year production run. As noted by Hinckley Yachts, the Bermuda 40 was the company's first foray into fiberglass construction, and by the time the Mark II was in production, Hinckley had perfected the art of the "jewelrygrade" yacht. The B402 is a centerboard yawl characterized by its graceful overhangs, narrow beam, and lowprofile cabin trunk, embodying a design philosophy where beauty and seaworthiness are inextricably linked.
