The Hinckley Pilot 35 represents a watershed moment in American yachting, marking the successful marriage of Sparkman & Stephens’ (S&S) design prowess with Hinckley’s early mastery of fiberglass construction. Introduced in 1962 as the successor to the wooden Pilot 33, the Pilot 35 was designed by the legendary firm of Sparkman & Stephens (Design No. 1727) to be a capable, elegant, and seaworthy coastal cruiser that could hold its own in club racing. Over a production run that lasted until 1975, Hinckley built 117 of these vessels, cementing the model's status as a quintessential "modern classic." The boat was a direct beneficiary of the lessons learned from the larger Bermuda 40, offering the same aesthetic of a graceful sheer line, low profile, and meticulous brightwork in a more manageable 35foot package.
