Grace is a Hinckley 48 sailboat and a work of art
About Grace

One of only 8 made by Hinckley, works of art like Grace are kept in the family and rarely show up
for sale. We are honored to add her to our family and hope to live up to
the challenge and responsibility of owning such a wonderful vessel.

Grace has had a rich history and we have logs from all the way back to the
beginning in 1970.

History

Her first name was Basia and was commissioned by Seward J for his love, Basia from Poland.
She spent most of her life in the Mediteraean around Italy where they and
her Captian spent many wonderful, well maintained years. She was Nantucket
red hull with tanbark sails. Upon the eventual death of her owners she was returned
to the United States and put on the hard in New Jersey.

After many years on the hard, Basia was then lovingly restored by Bill
C. and named Red Rover. She was allgripped Oyster white and given many
upgrades, new evolution sails and grey canvas.
She spent the next few years cruising the Chesapeak Bay.

Finally in Sept 2021 she has come down to us to be loved and to continue her
restoration as "Grace (O'Malley)". She still has her well kept original teak decks, original
light birch interior and true solid teak and holly sole and custom wooden
toolbox. We found her original tanbark Hood sails in excellent condition.
The heavy main had never been used! So we are flying her tanbark sails
She is now on the water at her new home in North Carolina and is
actively cruising the Eastern Seaboard. We are continuing the restoration
with the help of Hank to bring her back to as close to original as possible.
You can follow our escapades here!

We love visitors and making new friends! If you would like to visit, I
promise we would love to have you. Come for a long chat with good stories
and good food! Perhaps we'll even go for a sail. You can drop by any time
or you can email us and we'll make plans.

If you come visit us please sign the manifest and see her amazing history and
original logs!
