The Hinckley 43 (Hood) is an American sailboat that was designed by Ted Hood and first built in 1979.[1][2][3][4]
The design was originally marketed by the manufacturer as the Hinckley 43, but is now usually referred to as the Hinckley 43 (Hood)-2 to differentiate it from the earlier 1976 Hinckley 43 (Hood) and the unrelated 1990 Hinckley 43 (McCurdy & Rhodes) design.[1][2][5][6][7][8]
The design was built by Hinckley Yachts in the United States, from 1979, but it is now out of production.[1][2][9][10]
