2008 HINCKLEY Talaria 40

Built by Hinckley in 2008, Beatrice is a 12.22-metre motor yacht based on the Talaria 40 model, designed by Bruce King. She combines the classic elegance that Hinckley is known for with a comprehensive series of modern upgrades carried out by an experienced multi-Hinckley owner, resulting in a vessel that is ready to use from day one. She is currently located in Marseille, France.

Beatrice has benefited from significant investment in recent years. In 2022, she received new twin Yanmar 6LF530 engines paired with Hamilton jet drives and JetStick® control, delivering strong performance and precise manoeuvrability. The hull has been fully repainted in Awlgrip, and the electronics have been upgraded to a Raymarine system. Additional improvements include air conditioning, an enlarged galley, a modified full-width berth, and a generator, with all mechanical and cosmetic work completed by a professional yard. The single-cabin layout is well-appointed and benefits from these improvements throughout.

Beatrice is well suited to a buyer looking for a compact, capable, and well-maintained motor yacht for private day cruising or coastal passages. Her jet drive system makes her particularly practical in shallow waters and tight marina spaces, while her turnkey condition means no immediate investment is required. She represents a straightforward ownership proposition for someone who wants a refined and reliable vessel without the demands of a larger boat.
